    I am a Joe Biden supporter, but that is an unfair question due to COVID-19.

    I don't think it's unfair. Yes, the disease would've been as dangerous as it is no matter who was president. But the idea that a pandemic was unforeseeable is patently false. Trump took specific actions that weakened our ability to get out in front of it and then chose not to take actions that could've contained the spread much better. Can you pinpoint exactly how many deaths and job losses are directly attributable to Trump? No. Would they be less with a responsible adult in charge? Quite clearly yes.

    Since the Trump administration's response or lack of same to Covid-19 is going to be the premier issue of the campaign, I don't think it's an unfair question at all.

    His taxes are likely to show he doesn't have a ton of income, whatever income he does have is being knocked down to zero or less than zero via questionable methods, and in the case of several years of his tax returns, the losses are going to be so huge that he's going to look like a joke.

    He has spent his life selling a bullshit narrative of being a self-made success, and a brilliant businessman, and even though his tax returns won't lift the curtain on much of his grifter world, it will show that he's basically a guy who inherited a boat load of money and has spent his life making it into less money.

    What years are being pursued? If just the last few years, isn’t most of his money being made from his TV show?

    Psychologically, Trump is such a fascinating case. Any normal politician would've been cruising to a 1984-style Reagan win. Yet even before everything, he hasn't increased his slender political base at all.

    So, through constant self-sabotage, he's managed to stay in a position where he must feel most comfortable. Three steps away from political bankruptcy, raging at a legion of mostly self-created enemies.
