I am sorry to say that Trump's response to the Covid virus followed closely by his response to the on-going riots has cost him the election. An election that was his to lose and he has done so amazingly.
I have to question his mental capacity and wonder how long he could remain in office if not for the upcoming election which will most definitely remove him and install one of my worst nightmares.
How has America come to this? Is there any way to remove Trump from the ballot and replace him with someone who has a chance of winning in November?

I tend to agree with you, but at the rate crises are cropping up these days, the world could end a couple more times twixt now and then. Plus, the opposing party seems to throw him a lifeline when he is just about to go under. I honestly don't know how he can endure the amount of chaos he creates.

I think the opposite. The rampage of the nihilist Left will coalesce normal people who are aghast at their actions and threat to the country on top of the WuHan Virus black swan event. There is time to understand who and what is fueling the rampant violence and plundering that President Trump did not instigate nor perpetuate. The Left and their stooge, Joe Biden, have a lot for which to account in their ignoring, if not support, for the street mobs and Democrat governors/mayors who egged them on by capitulating to them. The wager is with the mob and their supporters or the normal folk who cherish our way of life. I’m betting on the latter.
Trump’s urging of an opening of society and the market places back to a semblance of normality will prove the correct one in the fullness of time as well, and the heavy hand of the command & control instincts of the Democrats plying their trade will repulse voters who can remember what they have done and still are doing in that regard even today.

Have to say Mike you are right about Trump. And have to admit that neither side has good candidates running for the job.
One thing for sure I ain't voting for Trump as I feel he's lost it. I feel he's trying to run the show to get elected king for life and seize power and to hell with everyone else. Somehow the red meat he keeps throwing out to his supporters is just enough to run the news for 5 or 6 days and then another piece come out for them to swallow all over..
And somehow I don't think he's the man behind the curtain either.

It's a sad situation when I hope you goobers reelect him in Nov. I can't imagine a world with Biden as Prez.... Has he chose a replacement.... I mean running mate?

I agree with your assessment, but see no way to realistically pull him off the ballot.
Just an observation---and frankly the way I got attacked last night I didn't expect to be back--but I have no recollection of any President in my life time being even close to an open revolt on the part of his cabinet---until now---even Barr is pulling back--again!
The stunt with the Bible was a new low for scum bag politics out of trump.

I have been voting “against” practically my whole adult life (Reagan exception), and this time my against Sino-Joe is multiplied by an order of magnitude...and I thought Hillary was an abomination. At least she was not a Chi-Com tool and a stooge for the Green New Deal idiots. While a reprehensible human being, HerSelf was at least not flirting with NCM status. Those voting Democrat this time around are mostly well aware that the cardboard cutout at the head of the ticket, if it stays as planned, will not be president in fact for long, and the real candidate is yet to be revealed as the VP pick. I expect another Leftist horror to be named. We already know it must meet certain quota requirements.
