Trump suggests election delay to counter voter fraud
-
IMO he's touting this (yes, I used the word touting) in preparation for contesting the result if he narrowly loses in November.

@Klaus - yeah of course if any person had sufficient backing from the military they could take over.
I don't see that as a risk in 2020. The bigger risk is Trump-friendly state governments attempting to invalidate whole classes of votes, putting up a competing slate of electors, or just never sending any, in order to throw the election into the house.
(note that an election in the house probably goes to Trump, because it isn't a straight vote of representatives, it's a vote by state delegation)

Biden isn't a socialist. I think we'll have to wait for 2024 to see that. Hopefully by then the GOP will have regained sanity.
Biden is anything his handlers tell him to be.
As for Trump role-playing the election...He's not doing that and we all know it. He's calling attention to fraud with mail-in ballots.
I despise mail-in ballots and believe they should be illegal.

I am beginning to actually hope Trump does lose, so you Trump bashers get to see what happens when the Socialists get in piwer. That may be what it will take for you to pull your heads out of your asses.
I've lived in countries with governments that are a lot closer to socialism than Joe Biden will ever be. It was great - there was this wonderful communal spirit as we stood around the stand-pipe to get our drinking water due to the drought, and we all had these lovely get-togethers at 4.30 pm when they turned off the electricity because the miners were on strike.
On the negative side, we ended up with Margaret Thatcher who was basically what Rand Paul would have been like if he'd been born a man.

Biden isn't the one who will be running things, because Biden is senile. The democrat party died already. It's not even a national party any more. It's just a collection of small factions, most of them Socialist.
If Trump doesn't win this country can kiss its ass goodbye. Doesn't matter much to me any more. I can get out. I just feel sorry for the ones who cant. But I will enjoy saying I told you so once you (the collective "you") get your wish.

I guess that would also be what I'd hope for. Hope that Biden doesn't do too much damage (he will almost certainly do some damage) and that the GOP will press the reset button until 2024.

"Pressing the reset button" is another way of saying "go back to being democrat lite". We pressed the reset button 4 years ago.
