It is not about Trump. It is about the ideological framework under which we will be governed. Making enough voters hate Trump is a way of avoiding a debate over the real issue.
It is about him and it should be.
He was the one screwing the pooch on the pandemic, attacking protesters to stage photo ops with bibles, ignoring Russian bounties on American soldiers, fanning the fires of racial tension, commuting the sentence of a convicted felon that even his own AG said was righteous and delivering incoherent press conferences in the Rose Garden.

The election is going to be a referendum on Tweety, and you can't get enough lipstick to sell that pig.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
