Jason Sattler: “You could argue that all these ploys by Trump and Republicans to rig this election are the flailing of a dying movement. What else is Trump going to do as the least popular incumbent of the century overseeing the worst job losses in U.S. history and the highest COVID-19 death count in the world? It’s not like they’re fooling voters. While it’s true that Biden has maintained a more convincing lead over Trump in national polls than Hillary Clinton did four years ago, polls of the key battleground states this month look almost identical to those that pitted Trump against Clinton in August 2016 — except Trump is doing slightly better.”
“The worst thing 2020 has in common with 2016 is this: Too many people believe that just because a guy known for bankrupting casinos and swindling veterans who sign up for his fake university should be rejected in a massive, undeniable landslide, he will be. And this leads to the greatest danger our democracy faces — underestimating Donald Trump.”
