Barr’s plan is to cause such epic disruptions that the voter turnout will be suppressed in areas of the Democratic base.

that Trump is now a caged, coronavirus-ravaged individual, like a rabies infested dog, who, along with his elected supporters, will do anything to win this election.

Now that Trump’s back is against a political wall, his thuggish tendencies are in full view. He has no choice but to resort to any level of dishonesty to win.

Democrats are in a politically perilous position and must summon the courage and energy to fight the battle they are actually in rather than rely on the rosy scenario of a widening Biden lead in daily polls in most battleground states.

Given this reality, it is imperative that Joe Biden focus like a laser beam on turning out the Democratic base and not waste any substantial resources on persuading Trump voters to back him.

There is growing, national multiracial energy for a more just society, despite President Trump’s continuing campaign to stoke racial division and enmity with his recent focus on law and order as a way of recovering from his sagging poll numbers.

Whatever negative views Democrats may hold of Donald Trump, and many of them are well-deserved, we must acknowledge that he has shown a unique ability to tap into the base instincts of voters open to his autocratic, fascist tendencies.

The Biden campaign must quickly grip the fact of who their opponent is. He is irretrievably mentally and socially broken and more than willing to break and burn down our Democracy for his own egotistical needs. Are we, as a country, willing to devolve into Fascism to satisfy Donald Trump’s insatiable neediness?

Biden and the Democrats seem unable to accept the fact that there are no boundaries to what Trump will do to win. He will sacrifice anyone, commit any political crime, and go beyond all limits of personal and political decency to prevail!
