Can you run a presidential campaign while not daring to leave Florida?

Eugene Debs got 914,191 votes (3.41% of the popular vote) in 1920 despite being in jail. The 3.41% is unusually high for a Third Party nominee. Trump does have his cult, and he has plenty of local proxies. He can appear by closed-circuit television anywhere he wants, as at (presumably right-wing) churches. 

More troublesome is that Democrats have found how to defeat him. Show him lying. Show him egging on Putschists. Show the ugly stats of COVID-19.  

As for Matt Gaetz -- the facts are circling him like vultures around a dying creature.  

He's just part of the problem for the lowly partisan hacks like you these days. Trump has 70 some million supporters right now. Liz Chaney was removed from her leadership position because Donald Trump still has the support of the vast majority of the Republican base today. Trump knows plenty of rich Americans who have no interest in Marxism. He'll most likely gain several million more by the next election as Biden/Harris and the clueless Democrats continue dividing the country and continue fucking up everything and making matters worse for Americans. Matt Gaetz always reminded me of John Edwards. As I recall, you were pretty fond of John Edwards back in the day.
