Just wait until @JoeBiden puts on a Stetson and locks Texas in the blue column.

Trump will be trounced 413 to 125. The popular vote will be devastating, emotionally, to the narcicist.

who have suffered so much with tRump in charge. There will be dancing in the streets!

But he also needs to be smashed at the ballot box so he cannot claim “it is so close we need a recount.” Or a rematch.

If Biden takes Texas it’s all over. I too want an absolute blowout to stop all the cries of “RIGGED!” But I’ll believe it when I see it on November 4. In the meantime we have to act like we’re 10 points behind.

Not only would it send trump off in disgrace, it will show the nation and the world just how many of the sane, compassionate citizens outnumber the trumpers and racists.
