In case you're here for the first time, reading this comment, and you blacked out from 2016-2020, Donald J. Trump is a fascist demagogue, who speaks directly to Russians about internal US affairs including classified info and has said that if re-elected, he will become a dictator. The GOP's plan to dismantle the executive branch and replace staffers with Trump loyalists has been laid out and available for all to read, entitled "Project 2025". His children admitted to meeting with Russian intelligence officials in Trump Tower to discuss undermining the 2016 election. He called Mexicans rapists and drug dealers, was best friends with the world's most famous pedophile, mocked a disabled reporter in front of thousands of people (and on national TV), he lied that he would lower taxes on the working class and instead raised them, he illegally demanded clandestine investigations into the Biden's as blackmail for military aid to Ukraine (hmmmm I wonder what Donald learned from Putin during their hangouts...), and he let millions of Americans die of COVID by repeating lies that contradicted the real science of the pandemic. The laundry list is massive. He's not fit to be president of anything and he belongs in jail.
