Republicans are hoping to save their election chances by stoking fear and anger against the BlackLives Matter movement.

Taking their cues from President Donald Trump, GOP congressional candidates in safe seats are painting the civil rights movement as "Marxist" and anti-family, while Republicans in swing districts are portraying their Democratic opponents as "left-wing radicals," reported Politico.

The Trump-endorsed Bill Hagerty, who's running for Senate in Tennessee, told the website that the BLM movement wants to see the "destruction of the nuclear family," and Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) has attacked WNBA players for supporting the movement's message, which she has repeatedly claimed in Marxist.

Taking up the executive orders signed by Donald Trump on Saturday, MSNBC "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough pointed out a big loophole in the president's proposal for a tax cut, saying he is hiding the fact that voters will be on the hook for deferred taxes after the election.

After first pointing out the president's contempt for Americans struggling to make ends meet during the coronavirus pandemic that has crippled the economy.

"In fact, some of the policies he put forth are going to hurt people, hurt small business owners the most. Again I go back to the payroll tax cuts -- economists, Republicans, Democrats, everybody is opposing this.
