20. I think that he has something up his sleeve

Trump doesn't care about these crowds of brain deficient MAGA cheerers; he doesn't care about caravans of Trump flag waving idiots trying to cause accidents. He cares only about himself. We all know this.

He has his eyes on the EC. Period. And, because there are states with Repubs in power, he can screw around with this. He can. It was surprisingly easy for him to put himself above the law these last 4 years. So, nothing would surprise me. We'll know what is going to happen when it happens. But, you know he isn't leaving quietly. Why else would he decide to continue to campaign after the 3rd? What did this mean when he said that?

I am ashamed of the people interviewed on TV who plan to vote for Trump. It is more than a difference of opinion. They'll wake up with a fascist government and not understand anything.
