    I think it would depend on what people assume "the left" has claimed about it instead of an assumed strawman position based on RW talking points. Its undeniable there are alot of threads that connect Trump and Russia but that doesnt neccesarily mean Trump directly partnered with Russia or Putin himself for the Campaign

    The options in the modern political landscape in the Untied States are as follows:
    1. Vote for someone I don't particularly like but will intrude on my life the least
    or,
    2. Vote for a party who has no concept of the separation of politics and private life. A party who does not respect private property and actively seeks to destroy my life and everything I hold dear for seemingly no reason.

    The correct option seems pretty clear. I want to keep my guns, my money, my dignity, my property, and I refuse to feel bad or hold any guilt over the past mistakes committed by the United States. The underpinning mindset of the American liberal is one of failure and defeat that can only be satiated by dragging others down to make them feel as miserable as they do. No thank you.

    It's what he's always peddled in and what he continues to peddle in. Only now he's spreading fake news about more important things . . . like a pandemic.

    Especially if your daddy might be president until Harris gets him out, and to hold her position against the genuine centrist Democrats who might otherwise support Biden, she'll get the whole family prosecuted, including Jill. This is no different than how Hillary Clinton would have gone down her own checklist of paybacks to do once elected.

    But claim the Russians interfered for Trump but then libs say Burisma was not backing Biden? *SNORK!*

    And I wish you could take off the partisan blindfold for long enough to realize he didn't stop with fake news. He's accelerated it.

    What do you mean "backing Biden"? In what way are they backing Joe Biden, especially now that his son doesn't work for them anymore.

    Truman qualifies, I believe. He was also the last honest Democrat president.

    And he continues to lie. Constantly. All the time. I don't understand how it is physically possible to bury one's head deep enough to pretend that they can't see that.

    You know, except for all of the lies he's made about and continues to make about it . . . and the fact the he's been caught on tape admitting that he mislead the public about the threat of the disease.

    Speaking of fake news.

    Considering historians are biased like Doris Kearns Goodwin and others, you're probably correct. The lies will stagger our imaginations. It's a good thing people who weren't there will later set so MANY of us straight!
