Sometimes your views of this thing you call the left make me wonder if you have any friends or acquaintances on the left. No one on the left wants Trump to be the President. They know that the country's institutions will not survive four more years of this. Not trolling.youthathletics wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 11:02 amThat is what the left wants....they like having Trump as POTUS, he is a distraction and they ultimately get what they want.Peter Brown wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 8:23 am Interesting takeaways from this article:

Trump is doing much better with blacks this time around (which might force Joe to choose Harris or Abrams, a complete disaster scenario for Joe)

Trump's enthusiasm gap above Biden is epic; Joe's enthusiasm vote is lower is lower than Clinton and Romney, barely above McCain...all lost.

This race may not be as close as some have predicted. Trump could potentially win in a landslide. And don't blame the messenger boys; blame the polls which you always love until you don't.
seacoaster, you have to think like politician. Certainly you are correct that the majority of citizenry/left does not like/want trump, but the political left....yes. Why? b/c Trump really is a political democrat, until he knew he wouldn't win as one. We could easily agree he is also a grifter. But in the end, he has given the left what they wanted at damned near every turn...with the exception of SCOTUS seats. The political left can happily say, we are getting our share of give of take, and our economy is doing quite well. Does it sting they are not in full power?....certainly, but a small price to pay for still winning enough of the small battles.
Would I like to see Trump gone...certainly, but he also provides a balance of power that is also healthy for our country. That is also why I believe the left is fighting in the trenches for the majority, because odds are, they lose the presidency...AND, if they don't, well, they get closer to the majority.
