Every day, I am more and more stunned that THAT PERSON is still allowed to run for ANY kind of office, much less POTUS!

I’m in my 70’s. I’ve worked on elections since I was 11. My dad took me with him while campaigning for Kennedy. Over the years, my candidates have won and have lost, but never before have I worried about the continuation of our country. Today, I am seriously afraid for the USA.

Can we go back to when voting was for two good candidates with slightly different priorities but still cared about the people and country?

if the SC can rollback Roe they can rollback Citizens united, get all that money out of politics

FROM THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN: 100 MILLION VOTES NEEDED FOR KAMALA HARRIS! 100 million votes for Kamala Harris and the resounding rejection of every single Republican on the ballot should eliminate any attempt to corrupt the vote count.

We have enough history to understand how democracies die. It really is now or never.

I'm from Zimbabwe. I can predict every step that comes after this. I've been watching it since i was 6. I'm 50 now.
Understand that the cost of removing a dictatorship is the lives of your sons and daughters. Don't let it happen

Where is Bush? Where is Romney? Cowards, shameful.

If he loses he will incite domestic terrorism, just like last time. If he wins, I expect him to wait until inauguration, then declare martial law and impose authoritarian rule, just like he TRIED to do before.

Why isn't the media talking more about trumps ambition of cutting Social Security and

Rachel is a great commentator. She speaks the truth just like Lawrence does.

[graemewatling]

As a South African I can't help feeling that Americans are sleep walking into an authoritarian dictatorship and all the horrors that come with that and America's alies aren't exactly thrilled with the prospect

[TomCoupe-sfvv]

Remember this is not a game show vote like you might have to live with the results for the rest of your life

[MediaFaust]

Do you want the crime boss or the public prosecutor? Yeah, it's pretty weird.

[joklemm]

Watching from Europe I agree with the person who said: "I am embarrassed to live in a country where Trump is even being considered to be President".

[roryhendricks]

From the Netherlands...go for it America...💙💙💙💙

[lorettakeesee]

[anderslarsen]

I am not a republican but I still have enough confidence that there are among the millions of hard working decent normal republicans that are appalled enough by the Musk/trump oligarchy that they do not vote or vote for Harris.

[buckeyewill]

I don’t want a strongman…..I want a President.
