I'm convinced it was more of a "anyone but Hillary" thing. I've always said, if it was ANY other Dem woman vying for POTUS in 2016, Trump loses. - kritter65
Trump had no problem with the mail in ballots in 2016.
Now he’s throwing a temper trantrum like a pubescent child.

I’ve said this numerous times as well.
The reason this country is so divided falls on the blame of the Democratic Party.
They pick anyone but Hillary and they win again. Trump goes away, his radical supporters don’t get screen time, and then Democrats most likely lose the White House this election.

Ya that would of been a big factor. I think Trump won primaries though because of the narrative Hillary and Obama pushed of division. Then Trump capitalized on that group that was being attacked and made it his platform.
What democrats fail to realize is by rubbing it in their faces that they lost and falsely calling them racists, falsely quoting Trump and twisting his words will just create a new Trump

if trump goes away, the dems will win the senate in Jan
if trump holds rallies, the republicans will hold the senate
Has everything to do with the people, not the leaders. How can Biden, or Trump stop people from coming to my house for a party, spreading the virus. You can’t. Americans won’t isolate. They resist.
They should have locked down the country for 3 weeks (stimulus covers the inconvenience) and the business package to keep employers paying their employees. But it’s easier to look at it now.
The problem with this country is nobody wants to work together. It’s always Republican versus Democrat. As someone who is a registered independent it’s a royal annoyance.
Yes it’s an opinion piece but there are facts in there. - Stripes77
History is being re-written before our eyes.
I'm not here to say the Right has it all right, nor that the Right is not flawed...obviously is has failed to connect with 75m voters. For that it needs to soul search on its' position on several issues.
However, to continually see these myths posted as fact and the total buy in by masses just makes one shake their head. And, it also goes for the right, it happens there in spades as well. Neither side will come clean...and it is significantly driven by the media. I don't see it changing. Because of this, I find it difficult to believe the country will unite.
I hope I am dead wrong.
He did denounce them. Numerous times. Another debunked take. Yes, neo nazis did show up (bad part of crowd) that does not mean that there were other good people there just protesting. It’s not a hard concept to figure out yet has many low informed people perplexed. - Fattony1187
First he middled it, then he denounced them, and then walked it back two days later.
First (Saturday):
"We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence on many sides — on many sides," Trump said
Second (Monday):
"Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans," he said.
Third (Tuesday)
"I think there is blame on both sides. You look at both sides. I think there is blame on both sides," Trump said during his remarks on Aug. 15.
"You had some very bad people in that group. You also had some very fine people on both sides," he added.
Blame on both sides? Absolute garbage. When Nazis come to town, people should show up.
Wouldn't let me use the quote feature, so I just copy/pasted your reply here :
"Has everything to do with the people, not the leaders. How can Biden, or Trump stop people from coming to my house for a party, spreading the virus. You can’t. Americans won’t isolate. They resist."
You're right. Basically, us Americans are stubborn as hell. In general, Americans refuse to social distance and wear masks and it sickens me. Me and my family wear masks every day even when we go for walks and we're basically the only ones doing it. No way in hell are we doing Thanksgiving at someone's house this year. These small/big family gatherings every god-damned month (New Years Eve, Easter, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, for example) are a main reason this damn virus keeps spreading. Why can't people just stay home !?! Oh you're bored ?? TOO BAD ! I've been working from home since April. We only go to Wegmans once a week, at 6am on a Thursday. We don't get the food bagged - we place it back into the wiped-down cart. We wipe down all items we buy before placing them in our bags - which are waiting for us in the car. We go for rides in the car. We go on walks. Haven't eaten at a restaurant since March. We get food delivered and left on the porch. We wipe it down, we nuke the food. This is how all of you should deal with Covid-19. Dammit, why can't everyone be as awesome as me and my family. You all suck. No offense.
Whew, went totally off the rails there. Sorry 'bout that. Carry on ...
