The betting odds say the next election will likely be a rematch between Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
It's odd, since polls show most Americans don't like either man.
There are good reasons for that. My new video covers some of the worst.
Trump is simply mean. He humiliates people, taking pleasure in mocking them publicly.
In his real estate work, he's famous for not paying little people who work for him. He stiffed a cabinet-builder, a dishwasher and a plumber. No one is too small to get bad treatment from Trump.
It's sad that today, America is so divided. Trump makes that worse.
Of course, Biden is divisive, too. Running for office, he promised, "I will draw on the best of us, not the worst."
But now that he's president, he does the opposite. He calls his opponents "full of anger, violence, hate and division." This is drawing on "the best of us"?
Then there are the lies.
Trump lies even about unimportant things, like the crowd at his inauguration, ratings for his TV show, even claiming he won a nonexistent "Man of the Year" award.
And of course, he lies about the big things, like winning the last election "by a landslide."
But Biden lies, too. When Georgia required voters to show identification, Biden called that "Jim Crow on steroids." He said that again and again.
But that's a lie. Jim Crow stopped Black people from voting. After Georgia's law passed, a poll found "zero percent of Black voters said they had a poor voting experience."
