A few black men don't like Kamala. So you think she'll lose? A lot of white men don't like Trump, but you think he'll win?

Use your critical thinking skills, please.

Here is more of Trump's cockeyed campaign stuff - go "work" at a McDonalds so he can dismiss Harris' experience from a summer job when she was in high school. It's a tit-for-tat thing that matters to him.

Trump's McDonald's visit sets off social media: See photos, video, reactions

Here is a snippet (hopefully you can read the whole thing at the source) from a well-regarded American historian:

Heather Cox Richardson (Letters From An American) has called attention to the next steps should Trump win - This is where his party with Twenty-fifth Amendment his ass out of office.
The need to figure out what would happen if modern medicine could keep alive an incapacitated president became apparent after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963. Not only did the question of a president’s incapacity have to be addressed; so did the problem of succession. Vice President Lyndon Baines Johnson was falsely rumored to have had a heart attack, and both the speaker of the House and the president pro tempore of the Senate were old and doubted that they could adequately fulfill the duties of the presidency themselves.

Congress’s solution was the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the Constitution, providing a system by which either the president or, if they were unable to realize their incapacity, members of the executive branch would transfer the powers of the president to the vice president. Eisenhower enthusiastically backed the idea that the nation should have coverage for a disabled president.

To anyone paying attention, it is clear that Trump is not in any shape to manage the government of the United States of America. He is canceling interviews and botching the ones he does sit for, while falling asleep at events where he is not actually speaking. He lies incessantly even when hosts point out that his claims have been debunked, and cannot answer a question or follow a train of thought. And his comments of the weekend—calling the vice president a “sh*t vice president,” telling a woman to get “your fat husband off the couch” to vote for him, and musing about a famous golfer’s penis—indicate that he has no mental guardrails left.
