 Swamp vs. swamp.  Standard political procedure.  Unusually hyper this year.  But that's not what it is about, for me.  Making it about Trump may be a way of winning the election.  Which means the left, which is becoming more extremely leftist, will be in power.
 
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.

Yeah.  And they've been fanned for decades.  Mostly in order to bring down the foundation of this country--accusing Trump is myopic), commuting the sentence of a convicted felon that even his own AG said was righteous and delivering incoherent press conferences in the Rose Garden. (That's what commuting does.  You don't commute a non-convicted felon.  And Stone, though a whacko, is not as bad nor dangerous as he is painted to be, and Barr is supposed to be this Trump bootlicker, so why would you go by what he says.)

 That's what you want.  But it is about something far more important and fundamental than Trump or Biden.
