(#6445) 40 days until the election results...

      The one advantage the republican party can count on in this election is their money. They can flood the airwaves with false and misleading ads to try to sway as many gullible voters as possible. What has been a huge advantage for republicans in the past is not as winning this time around however. Because the ads may be false and misleading but they can't mask the real harm trump is doing to we who they are trying to confuse. We feel the harm in real time so their ads no matter how clever cannot hide from the fact that republicans are the designers of our current misery. Giving them more license to make the harm even worse is a bridge too far even for many of the gullible.
     Yet as the only real advantage republicans have at their disposal expect an onslaught of ads trying to convince we the people that previous presidential administrations are to blame. That the trump administration is only trying to clean up their messes. Except that trump has been in power for most of the last 2 years and trying to make democratic administrations culprits when he has a majority in Congress and a friendly supreme court is logically against his attempt. Plus the fact that he has created most of the mess himself through tariffs, alienating allies, and attacking Iran. The economic footprint he has created for we here at home is abysmal. Cutting programs that keep our industries viable, kicking people off of health care, cuts to social security, food stamps, while unleashing ice agents to terrify our communities.
     The trump administration can and will spin all of this as a necessary harm to our society in order to instill a greater future. Yet the only ones who sense a greater future are the wealthy and their increased ability to manipulate the rest of we the people of the working middle poor class. No matter how the republicans attempt to spin examples like the destruction they caused making our food insecure while raising prices on them is foolhardy. Yet that is their best chance of diverting the most ominous blue wave coming down on their heads in less than 6 weeks. I already know the consequences of this election and therefore don't waste my time watching ads from republicans trying to persuade me otherwise. We all need to keep our minds focused and only make sure our votes are counted!
