  1. Daily Reminder: Trump called Corona Virus a Democrat Hoax that will “magically” disappear.
    P.S.
    I pay more federal taxes than Donald Trump

    1. You should actually read what Trump said instead of repeating the narrative that cnn has fed you. As an extra benefit you won’t look so stupid posting incorrect information

    2. BidenHarris 2020

      Thank a lot for your support folks ^^ Love you guys

    3. @IsThatTrue OrDidYouHearItOnFOX camjamsdad is definitely another stupid trumpee! This isn’t even CNN! 🤣🤣🤣

    1. Which is why he’s leader of the Proud Panties Boys. The rebel flag and swastika print is Trump’s favorite.

    2. @IsThatTrue OrDidYouHearItOnFOX Nothing to add, just wanted to see your screen name highlighted in blue.

  2. Joe Biden’s the only one of the two Presidential candidates who actually sees the flaws within American life that must be remedied.

  3. “If we are to keep our democracy, there must be one commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice.”

    – Sophocles

  4. Civil rights movement started the fulfilling; the rest is up to each person and community. ‘Been talking about civil rights for 56 years. Now, BLM destroys small black business in Democrat run cities throughout the U.S.

  5. It’s sadly still unfulfilled for anyone but straight, white, rich, christian men. We will change that!

    1. YEAH…THE KLAN SAID THAT TOO !!! I SEE WHERE YOU’RE COMING FROM !!! You believe in fairy tells…and a man that lives in the clouds…STFU…you can’t change your mind !!!

    1. Yes…Trump people are losing…!!! He’s going to jail…and James Comey will read him his rights…even if the have to hog tie him…kicking and whining out of “OUR” HOUSE !!!

  6. The only way to honor American ideals is to recognize our successes and failures side by side. Otherwise, progress is impossible.

    1. “…how you are you trying to kid ?”
      You’re trying to say something, but we sure don’t know what it is.

  7. “My name is Donald Trump, king of kings:
    Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away
    The USA is done. America is finished.

    (apologies to Shelley)

  8. Mr Biden could just walk away and retire in comfort but it is in his dna to unite and see the phoenix (USA) rise up from the ashes caused by the orange ogre!!!

  9. America has a choice between a fantasy hero in his own drugged mind, and a realist who will use science to fight a very serious sickness.

  10. -Joe Biden 10/5/2020
    “The reason I was able to stay sequestered in my home was because some black woman was able to stock the grocery shelf.” 

    -Joe Biden 10/5/2020
