In an interview with Politico, the president’s crackhead son said he feared Trump would prosecute the Biden family for corruption.

What are you most worried about?
Losing our democracy to a fascist minority. The vast majority of Americans cherish the freedoms each generation has fought to secure. The very freedoms under threat in this election. I believe that Donald Trump means what he says: that he will “suspend” the Constitution when it suits him; that he will be “a dictator on day one;” that he will use the military to “handle” his political opponents and that he will seek “retribution” against his perceived enemies.
I agree with Gen. Mark Milley that Donald Trump is a “fascist to the core,” and with Gen. Mark Kelly, Gen. Jim Mattis, former Rep. Liz Cheney and Vice President Dick Cheney and the dozens of former Trump aides and cabinet secretaries who say Donald Trump is unfit to serve as commander in chief, and that he should never be allowed to stand behind the seal of the President of the United States again. This is not a normal election where we are arguing about tax rates or school vouchers. A second Donald Trump presidency is potentially the end of America as we’ve known it.
What is the Trump campaign doing well?
Lies, fear mongering and disinformation. The same thing he has done since he came down his golden escalator ten years ago. It’s easier to scare people with lies than educate them with the truth. It’s faster. It sticks to your marrow. Donald Trump’s “Project 2025” details the most radical, reactionary and unpopular set of policy prescriptions ever proposed by a major party candidate in American history. It is so radical and unpopular that Donald Trump has pretended to know nothing about it.
Instead he has chosen again to run on fear and division. His campaign has been very effective in staying on that message. The same message he’s had for 10 years. Not “love your brother,” but “fear your brother.” But the better he is at that, the more Americans are disgusted by it. Voters have rejected Trump and Trumpism in every election since 2016, and I believe they will again in 2024.
What should the Harris campaign be doing?
Exactly what they are doing. Vice President Harris has proven herself to be an extraordinarily gifted candidate. She has been disciplined, and her campaign reflects the joy and optimism she communicates with every appearance she makes. The way Harris speaks about middle class capitalism is informed by her own life experience, and I believe it is inspirational and speaks to the aspirations of all Americans.
The joyful warrior that America has gotten to know in these past few months is the same Kamala Harris that has been an invaluable partner to the president these past four years and the same Kamala Harris my brother told me about and so admired when they fought side by side as attorneys general to hold the big banks accountable in the mortgage lending crisis of 2008. President Biden chose Kamala Harris to be his vice president and passed the torch to her because of her dedication to service, her unyielding pursuit of justice and her profound decency. These are the qualities that my brother so admired about Harris when he was alive, and I know he would be so proud of her now.
