The problem is that the Right Wing grifters can feed the narrative. In this state, they're running constant ads about how crime is up 55%. But they're using 2020 as the comparison, when we were all on lockdown. It's so transparently bogus but also very effective. Because most people won't dig into that stat like I did.

On the eve of election day, I have finally come to the realization that Trump is nothing less than an evil monster. No, not a metaphorical monster. He's the real thing. Dictionaries will need to drop "imaginary" from their definition of the word. Trump is an entity that might as well have crawled out of the mouth of Hell to destroy all that is good in humankind. Should Harris defeat him tomorrow, America will hold its collective breath until it is known whether or not the politicians whose souls Trump has been feeding on will repudiate him at last and cut off one of his major sources of sustenance. Fortunately, immortality is not one of the Trump monster's assets. The sooner Satan summons him home the better.
