COVID

  • 212,000 deaths from Covid, potentially 100,000  from Coronavirus mismanagement, 7.58 Million Cases (10/08/2020).  
  • Trump was told how deadly the virus was as early in January. He admits to downplaying the danger of the virus while knowing how deadly it is [ref. Bob Woodward in the book Rage during recorded sessions].
  • Muzzling of Fauci and doctoring the CDC website, preventing Fauci from giving more accurate information to the American people about the Coronavirus.
  • Disbanding the Pandemic Taskforce created by the Obama Administration and claiming Obama did nothing to prepare.
  • Setting a bad example by refusing to wear a mask  and flouting the use of masks even though the mask is the single best way to stop transmission of the virus during many months of the pandemic.
  • Holding mass rallies violating state guidelines in a climate of flouting of mask-wearing.
  • White House Admin Belief in herd immunity without spelling out the catastrophic outcome of  2.5-3 million dead, an enormous loss of life.

  • Actively trying to destroy the Affordable Care Act during his term in office so far and druing a Pandemic
  • Defunding the World Health Organization during a Pandemic

NATIONAL SECURITY AND 2016 ELECTION INTERFERENCE

  • Rod Rosenstein dropped the counterintelligence investigation into whether Trump was a Russian Asset by getting both the FBI and Muller to each think that they were each covering this aspect of the investigation.  He has never been investigated for this despite countless Russian connected communications and trying to build a hotel in Russia during the campaign and while he has been in office. (Threat to National Security when a President is compromised).
  • Trump has conducted 16 calls or private meetings with Putin. The private meetings had no oversight of Trump and translators’ notes were destroyed.
  • Lied by claiming he had no financial ties to Russia during the campaign in 2016 and since in office while he was negotiating a hotel in Russia according to Strzok and Michael Cohen. This is in violation of the emoluments clause which means it is violation of law for a sitting President or US candidate because they are considered compromised. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZgtntZd278&ab_channel=MSNBC
  • Refusing to turn over his taxes (importance to determine if he is compromised as a leader)
  • Trump openly asked Russia “If you are listening” in an open request to get Russia to find Hillary Clinton emails. It is illegal to ask or accept campaign contributions from a foreign government.  
  • Trump tried to get the last two Ukrainian Presidents to build a case on the Bidens.
  • Trump called Stone to coordinate on Wikileaks, reported by Gates reported in the Bipartisan Senate Intelligence Report and Mueller Reports.
  • Trump has Revealed Secrets to the Russians about assets early on when the Russians were in the oval office. This likelihood is by analysis of the Intelligence Community is that these people have died or their lives are seriously at risk and can no longer be used as assets.
  • Trump routinely believes Putin over US Intelligence in terms of interference in the elections.
  • Trump has not spoken up about the Russian bounties on American Troops and not speaking up about it, pushing back on Putin.  
  • Trump’s administration abandoned our Allies the Kurds allowing Putin more power in the region, destroying our relationship with a valuable ally.
  • Unilaterally without seemingly consulting the US military-- removing from Germany a move which would please Putin improving Putin's positions in the region.
  • Mueller outlined at least ten main accounts of Obstruction of Justice in the Mueller Report.
  • Trump's intention is to pull out of NATO, another goal of Putin’s.  

Trump commuted Roger Stone’s sentence.

  • Plans to send Trump-friendly volunteers to intimidate voters to battleground states.
  • Plans already to count on the US Supreme Court to decide the election

Deferring payments in a No-Win offer for businesses regarding their collecting their employee's payroll taxes in an attempt at blowing a 100 BILLION dollar hole in Social Security and moving up the date of the program's insolvency.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9WhBGUwU-c&list=TLPQMDUwOTIwMjD52q2FVHWvbg&index=1&ab_channel=CNBCTelevision Other attacks on Social Security come from Mitt Romney unfortunately to gut social security. https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/politics/478929-the-trust-act-is-a-plot-to-gut-social-security-behind-closed

  • First you are my cousin, friend, family member, associate.  I care about our country and I care about you. You sent this media clip from Trump’s Campaign.

  • How do you feel about the actions of the White House?  

  • The White House is trying to stop people who have pre-existing conditions from having health care. This is in the courts right now.

  • The White House Administration has been trying to stop the affordable care act during Trump’s entire time in office and defunded the WHO during a Pandemic.

  • Trump’s called veterans losers and suckers? How do you feel about that?

    Trump doesn’t speak in a way to bring our country together over race issues.

    This administration just made this sideways attempt to destroy Social Security and Medicare.
    How do you feel about these, not his words, but his actions?




    Since US policies affect the world and the lives and deaths of so many, there may not be a more urgent matter than citizens to be informed nationwide to counter the "spin", register voters, and support them all the way to the polls.

    The US Face to Face Voter Project was founded around May 2003 for the 2004 Election. A group of dedicated citizens worked around the clock with only the wish to protect our country by supporting them with the facts and protect other countries in the world from our failed diplomacy. The original idea was for citizens to educate citizens.

    This 2020 election year we are providing this concise summary due to the deep concern we have as citizens to protect our democracy.
