And he promised to be a president for all Americans -- not just those who voted for him. After four years of Trump's divisiveness, malignant narcissism, and abject cruelty, Biden's message of unity and healing could not be more of a contrast -- and more welcome.

4. Trump's lies were more outrageous than ever.

Trump claimed he was "the least racist person in the room," and that he'd done more for Black Americans than any president since Abraham Lincoln. He also downplayed the devastating toll of coronavirus, and even declared that he knew "more about wind" than Biden.

It was the performance of a desperate con man whose ignorance and racism have been on full display for far too long.

Look, the choice couldn't be clearer. But we can't be complacent. We know that Trump will do anything to hold on to power, and there's no telling what he'll do as he gets more unhinged.

So please: Organize. Volunteer. Make a plan to vote. Mobilize your neighbors. We can't afford anything less than a blowout victory for Joe Biden and Democrats all the way down the ballot.

Just 11 days to go. Let's make every second count.
