Democrats I’m really worried for you if you truly believe Joe Biden is the right choice for POTUS. The level of corruption is so deep and disturbing.

They didn’t mind ‘censoring’ content when it came to Brett Kavanaugh and dragging him and his family thru the mud now did they? Biden wants you to sit in your homes and hide from the virus. Why would that be? Bc he cares about you? No! Bc that shuts down our economy and guess what that does and who that benefits? It benefits HIM and the left wing liberals who have all gotten so wealthy and from what?! Corruption! Shutting our economy down benefits China bc with President Trump we had a booming economy and they (left wings hated it). They hated it and wanted him gone bc they won’t to control us and they are doing a great job of controlling YOU! WAKE UP!
