Believe what suits you. But don't assume the moral high ground
from those you disagree with and use words that are clearly
intended to place them "beyond the pale". That way lies
zealotry.

Thank you, Hélène. I think that anyone who believes in the values such as tolerance, diversity, democracy, women's rights, climate justice and and standing up to bullies will be praying for a Kamala Harris victory, although whatever the outcome Trump will probably claim he won and try to stir up trouble.
Go Kamala!, as you say.

I am so grateful to both Biden and Harris. Go Kamala! Here's an interesting, fun opinion news article about her.

Time will tell, indeed. I am less inclined to take the MSM view
on Trump, recalling how it was unrelenting before, during and after his time as POTUS. The connection between the political
status quo and the media who see themselves as confidants
wielding Citizen Kane power and influence is to be regarded
with appropriate suspicion. It is largely through their ongoing
adverse reporting on Trump that many form their own views,
for better or worse. A little scepticism of the content and the
agenda would not go amiss in the cause of cool assessment
of what can get done for America's future and, by extension, that of the world at large. Politics is not a profession for saints.
Ask the likes of Clinton, Obama and the Bidens.

Thank you Graham, MC and Tim for the comments, and thanks to Manish, Greg and Larisa for the likes.
The utter gracelessness of Trump's reaction to Joe Biden's decision to pull out of the campaign tells you all you need to know about him. 'Kick the man when he's down' just about sums up the MAGA morons.
Fortunately, it's likely that Kamala Harris will make mincemeat of him. Let's hope so.

Trump admires Putin and Kim Jong Un and all the insanity that belongs to their dictator regimes. He wants to be a dictator and sees himself as an equal in their narcissism. He is equally infatuated with fascism and Adolf Hitler. As in true dictator fashion he bolstered the turmoil and unrest that has encouraged the hatred and violence being displayed. He has made promises if reelected to go after everyone who disagrees with his fantasies of total power. He does not feel he needs NATO or allies who do not pull their weight according to his views. The future does not look well, time will tell.

I don't want to be too much of a realist but Trump had enough
leadership to beard the North Korean dictator in his own den
which didn't do peace any harm. He also lifted Putin off his
feet in a memorable handshake during a meeting; the message
clear. The Russians above all admire forceful leaders. There is
much disquiet in the USA about Biden's true condition being kept
from the public there by his Democratic Party associates. It has
been termed the "Democratic Fraud". Now where have I heard
those words before? 😏

It better not be Trump or we are all doomed! Biden did sadly go on too long and was obviously diminished. Harris MUST come out all guns blazing to call the villain out!
