Sonali Kolhatkar speaks with Jeff Cohen about progressive targe swing states to vote Trump out of office.
Historian Allan Lichtman, who has accurately predicted presidential race winners for 40 years, including the 2016 election that confounded pollsters, claims that former Vice President Joe Biden will win the November race and beat Trump.
But Donald Trump is a president like no other and has carefully laid the groundwork to question the election results, undermine vote-by-mail, and even demanded delaying the vote. Those wishing to see Trump removed from office realize that Biden needs a landslide victory in order for Trump to be voted out.
A new effort called #VoteTrumpOut targets progressives in swing states around the US by urgently making the case for the incumbent’s removal from office.
