What he said. Not one lie told. You can’t complain if you don’t vote.

Our statement on Donald Trump backing out of the debate he already agreed to

TRUMP BACKS OUT OF SCHEDULED ABC NEWS DEBATE, SAYS HE WILL ONLY DEBATE HARRIS IN PACKED ARENA WITH FOX MODERATORS. THIS is the only way to accurately describe Trump's latest head fake. It's JOURNALISM MALPRACTICE for news outlets to amplify his head fake as if its legit.

I love my black job 🖤
