 We barely survived four years of the madness of a wannabe authoritarian Trump. We cannot risk another term of Trump or his enablers in Congress.

 Trump defrauded the State of New York. No amount of whataboutism is going to change that. Trump is a fraud and a grifter. Always has been.

 What's sad is the depths to which the GOP has sunk - including Rudy Giuliani's possible collusion with Russian intelligence to manipulate stolen computer files originally belonging to Hunter Biden - in order to make President Biden appear a fraction as dirty as Defendant Trump.

 Under Trump:
- Worst jobs record since Herbert Hoover
- Broke Obama Recovery
- Manufacturing in recession by 2019 Q4, largely due to drag of Trump's tariff war
- US agricultural exports stalled, requiring bailout
- Tax cuts provided little stimulus, mostly used by corporations to buy back stock
- Tax cuts didn't pay for themselves as promised, ballooned deficits.
