In that the Mainstream Media report on what they choose and thus try to direct, or should I say deflect, the public to what the MSM desires, I am of the opinion that the next 3 months will be about the personalities of the candidates.

The rock literally hitting a chair in the office where a 12 y.o. had been sitting seconds earlier. Perhaps your time would be better used on those who are actually committing crimes rather than hypotheticals.

How many protests have we watched that were drummed up by false narratives like "hands up don't shoot" where they devolved into riots, looting, arson, and gun violence? I'm pretty sure they were not Trump voters, but hey, false narratives seem to work for the left so may as well double down.
