Record Virus Cases in Texas could hurt Trump's chances of reelection.

...Perhaps this news will wake up people in Texas how awful Trump is in administering this country. If that happens and if there is a record number of voters in November, then Trump could lose Texas. Now, this is not likely, but it could happen. Texas reopened early and the deaths and cases could (I said could) hurt Trump come November. If Trump were to lose Texas, not only would he lose the election, but his standing as an ex president would be lower than the deepest mine in the world. Lower than the deepest sea trench in any of the oceans. So low, that he would not be respected by any republicans anywhere. That indeed would be very low..and that indeed is what Trump deserves..

...This one is to save our "democracy." or system of government, or whatever you want to call it. And, I believe that Trump has to lose by a large margin (which will happen in my opinion) to avoid any run offs, or confusion if it is close, or any language from Trump that the election was "stolen"...
... I do not think that will be necessary. There is something hateful and vengeful about Trump. And Trump is a classic "bully."The great majority of people strongly dislike. "bullies"
..He will lose and lose big. I think there are a whole lot of people who are sick of Donald Trump, and will be willing to vote for Joe Biden no matter what. Joe is really a moderate, and he has been through real hell in his life. And such a contrast to Trump the "bully." Yes, Trump has turned off republicans too, and many will vote for Joe this one time to get rid of Donald Trump. That is my deepest gut feeling. Trump creates hate and meanness more than almost anyone. Today's news is indicative of that. He tells CNN to take back a negative poll. Why? Next week or in ten days there will be another poll. If the poll is wrong, the poll in 10 days will verify that.
...Trump got a great chance to prove he was/is a leader, and has failed with that chance. The last 4 months and especially the last 2 weeks have proven to all that Trump is not a leader, but a classic "bully." We will see on November 3rd. (and if I am wrong, on November 4th I will say "I was totally wrong, and also say I am sorry for being so wrong."
