    The only way to defeat fascism lies behind the chess board, and both sides should agree to a civil match, and if this rule is broken we will use our strongest words of condemnation. We must respect our opponents as much as we respect ourselves. kills tens of thousands of leftists in South America

    The reason leftists are certain Dems will lose is because for fear of being called crass or heartless by the media and the GOP, they will think of doing something stupid like not campaign in any places Trump isn’t campaigning to make it a “fair fight,” sit on their hands and refrain from any strong attacks on Trump if the Republican commentators go “how could you?!” and maybe even officially concede defeat ahead of time like they did when Steve Scalise got shot at the congressional baseball game they were winning.
