Of course the only way to avoid any of this is if Dem supporters get out there and vote in record numbers, giving Biden a landslide victory. I'm sure even then Trump will kick up a fuss and try to claim it's rigged, etc.., but that's much harder to do if you lose by a significant margin.
There has been a shift now in messaging now from Biden supporters emphasizing for people to try, if they can, to vote in person because of the predictable noise that Trump will raise around mail-in ballots. Most believe however, that overall, Biden voters prefer voting by mail for this election. If I was American, I'd probably mask up, shield up and go vote in person, but then again, I'd probably be living in New York or California which will go blue anyway.

Trump eagerly promoted the move Saturday, retweeting posts praising the memo that went to federal agencies demanding they alter racial sensitivity training programs for federal workers.
"This is a sickness that cannot be allowed to continue," Trump told his Twitter followers. "Please report any sightings so we can quickly extinguish!"
Such trainings "not only run counter to the fundamental beliefs for which our Nation has stood since its inception, but they also engender division and resentment within the Federal workforce," Vought wrote, adding that "we cannot accept our employees receiving training that seeks to undercut our core values as Americans and drive division within our workforce."

I'm going to the polls and voting in person. I've been saying this for months that it's necessary to show up in person because we can't let there be any doubt about the results.
I'd wear a hazmat suit if necessary, but thankfully local case transmission has been dropping rapidly over the last few weeks. So long as there's not a major spike again, I'd imagine a LOT of people will show up in person to vote.
I've been saying this for a while, but we're flipping Florida this time around. That's all it would take for Trump to lose.

Are you sure? had Clinton won Florida wouldn't Trump had still won?
before donald trump ever sought the oval office, he was preoccupied by its occupant president barack obama, publicly questioning his birthplace and privately describing him as "a manchurian candidate" who obtained his ivy league degrees only by way of affirmative action, according to a new book by trump's former attorney, michael cohen.
Trump's disdain for obama was so extreme that he took his fixation a step further, according to cohen: Trump hired a "faux-bama" to participate in a video in which trump "ritualistically belittled the first black president and then fired him."

All of these tweets mean nothing. His base is solidly behind him regardless of what he says. I played golf with a group of 20ish Vietnam vets, many of which lost brothers in arms, and not s single one of them cared about his "losers" comments. They don't care. He will maintain that 41% of the population because they are ignorant racists who maintain some extremely deplorable views.

The reality is that his base will simply dismiss anything with anonymous sources as "fake news". I suspect that many of them don't even realize that the source isn't anonymous to the author of the article, and has just declined to be named. If there is a named source, they will simply discredit the source, and say they have a vendetta against the President and are lying. It's a catch-22.
With respect to the impact on independents, what rock must you have been living under for the last four years that this is some shocking revelation? I cannot imagine that "Trump says awful thing, news at 11" is moving the needle overmuch at this point.

I'm still in awe how many Americans support that orange cockroach and are blind to the damage he's doing to America. America's quality of life is in decline and their international reputation is cratering; if these Americans don't change their tune, they're in for a massive reckoning in the near future.
The world is moving on without them, and will continue to do so under Trump's leadership. I feel the worst for the good logical, informed American people that recognize this too.

By what metrics are you using to say quality of life is going down. I’d probably say the majority of trump voters have not been directly affected Trump (pre-Covid). Most of his actions were masked by economic growth where unemployment was down, incomes were rising, and interest rates were low.
Now Covid has been a disaster but I think that one is easier to blame the disease rather than the government.

Massive civil unrest, DACA, tariff-damaged industries, environmental rollbacks, voter disruption / USPS.... quality of life isn't determined solely by economic factors.
