There is not one specific example that any Dem has given that they could have done differently to improve the situation. Listen to scientists, more PPE, more testing they say. Yeah, we did that. What else you got?

As we all know, facts do not hold any weight in today's media. About the only thing Trump could have done better would be to have done less badmouthing the medical 'experts', CDC, and WHO. Not saying he had to abide by their wishes, but don't badmouth them. That only played into the MSM's hands and gave them ammo to use to stir things up against him. All of what @BobRegnar states is true and facts. But just like Hunter Biden's laptop, the liberal MSM could care less about it. They do not cover it.

And don't forget, Trump did all of this while the House was trying to impeach him and they did not give a fuck about covid.

Buck up soldier, you're in for a treat next week.
Some stuff he was fast on some he wasn't. I think we should have had a national lock down early on and, though he lacked the power to do it, he should have constantly coached it and pushed for it if for no other reason than CYA.
The polls were not as far off last as some think. But, interpretation of them was definitely wrong, with some people claiming a victory with far higher odds than anything showed. I think the polls are off now, too...I just don't think they are off enough for him to win. I've been wrong before.
I'm in NY state. I have to submit to our governor who is so proud of himself he wrote a book about leadership during covid. Yes, the nursing home death governor.
Trump should have been more consistent and transparent.
First of all it is up to each states Governor to take action to see fit. It is not the president job to run every state.
Get a grip on real life.

The polls are very deceiving, Trump draws hundreds if not thousands to his rally's while Biden draws dozens???

All that while sending a Hospital Ship on it's way and not taking advantage of the temporary hospital set up in the Javits Center.

You're off by a factor of ten, at least. Trump draws thousands if not tens of thousands while Biden is lucky to get a dozen or two.
The polls were all saying the same thing last election. The media was saying the same things about the polls and who was going to win the last time. They got their butts handed to them and they're trying to get even this time, but are making the same, fundamental, error of believing their own bullshit.

'Can I change my vote' Google searches spike following Trump tweet: What you need to know
More than 59 million Americans have already cast their ballots ahead of Election Day, but following a tweet from President Trump, searches for 'Can I change my vote' have spiked on Google Trends.

Like I said, early voting is like Nancy Pelosi saying "You have to pass this bill to find out what's in this bill". To me, people that vote early are uninformed to begin with, and articles like this tend to prove that out.

Did you by chance see the recent pro Prop 15 ad? It pits "People of Color" against Whites by showing that small group of White Supremacists(that's what MSM called them anyway) that marched with tiki torches prior to the Charlottesville mayhem, and at the end of the ad says "supported by co-founders of BLM".
Prop 15 would only degrade the middle class even more. Is that their intentions?
I would guess less than 1% of those mostly kids who marched in Virginia own real estate. So why would they put that in there hmmm. Commercial property owners are all white supremacists? The ad put that tiki torch clip in and said "this is who opposes Prop 15".

There are those who fight real battles in the arena for everyone to see their strength and their weakness and there are those who sit at home in safety and comfort judging their every action and decision with the benefit of hindsight saying he should have done this and he should never have done that. Pick up that sword and shield and go do battle in the public arena if you have the courage.
Trump fought a new, manufactured disease for which there was no history or defense to guide his actions. No one else did better. Not the so-called experts, not other countries, certainly not the democrats. Most all were wrong at every turn. The anti-Trump media played up every number, while the anti-Trump deep-state devised plans to make everything appear worse than it was, for the sole purpose of bashing Trump over the head with it and hopefully snatching an election away from him. They couldn't care less about sacrificing you and your family's well-being and lives for the sake of their power.
I'll never understand people being so helpless they need someone to decide for them how to live. Trump is there to run the government for us, not our lives and not to be a cradle-to-grave nanny.

Well its really easy to look back right now and see what people could have done differently but in the beginning every expert was giving opinions and information was changing daily.. I mean Covid facts are still changing to date!
I'm in the group that feels the states are the ones that are supposed to be doing as much as they can without federal help. I mean.... whats the point of having govenors, mayors and lieutenant govenors if we want the president to micromanage states as well?

Now I understand why you're pessimistic about the election outcome.
That is exactly correct. It is up to the Governor of that state. I am so sick and f$$$$g tired of everyone blaming the President for every f$$$$$g thing that happens. OMG...grow the f$$k up please. That is why we have state governments and a federal goverment...they are separate for a reason. My wife keeps asking me why doesn't the President send in Federal Troops to stop the rioting. Its simple, the Governor of each state should be taking action, not the POTUS. This is what the founding fathers intended...smaller federal government. The states should take care of state business. IF they need assistance, it is up to them to ask for it.
Not to argue, but I voted early. There was absolutely nothing that could come out to make me change my mind. There is no way in hell I would vote for Socialism, and that is what the Dems are leading the charge to. I am very happy with what Trump has accomplished in his 4 years. I could never support Biden and his buddy Beto "I'll take your guns away" O'Rourke. This bullshit of Biden saying he would form a bipartisan commission to revamp the supreme court is a smoke and mirrors way to pack the court.
Sorry, end of rant.
