(2,620 posts)1. Exactly as drump would
have done or better.. ha ha
Drump would have said " you know you're fake news. By the way we are doing a fantastic job.. I can tell you, in fact everyone is praising the great job we're doing. Another thing no one would mess with me.. I'll nuke the shit out of them and they know it."

No hurled epithets of "failed", "nasty", "fake news"........

I can only hope that he will do whatever it takes to GOTV for Vice President Biden in November.
I have been very encouraged by his recent statements, and by Michelle Obamas GOTV efforts.
