i've been thinking about this. i mean, i put nothing past this loser these days. who has authority over when and where the election happens? does the current president have anything official they have to do for it to take place? or is it a neutral body that does that? would trump have the power to try to delay the election, say, if the virus goes apeshit in the next few months and he uses that as a way to weasel his way out of losing?gimmesometruth27 said:
obama is waaaay more popular than trump ever will be. obama will get people out to vote, assuming trump does not cancel the election.Halifax2TheMax said:
It’ll work for the 35%-42% of the deplorable base.Kat said:It's already blowing up in their faces. McConnell saying that a former president should have shut up, did NOT go over well with many, many people and so it was trending on Twitter this morning. Since President Obama spoke again anyway, it was a clear response to being told he should shut up. Interesting way for a Russian asset to fire up a lot of people who will be voting for Joe Biden. Attacking Barack Obama will not work.
i'm no conspiracy theorist, but it occurred to me that trump and his cronies are reopening the country in order to create an even bigger national emergency to give them the appearance of a reason to delay the election: public safety.By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -
Jared Dear Boy has already “floated” the idea of delaying the election and was roundly and soundly criticized for it. It’s not an Executive Branch function and it certainly doesn’t reside with Jared Dear Boy.

How can they try to delay the election at the same time they are telling everyone to get back to work, get out there, get normal? Isn't that the definition of insanity?
And I thought it's in the Constitution that the election must be held and if it isn't, the next in line becomes the President? That would be President Pelosi.Falling down,...not staying down0 -
Individual states, if their state constitution allows for it. If the Feds did it, it’d have to be a law passed by Congress and signed by POTUS, and then withstand court challenges. The parties can penalize states by not meeting certain deadlines, mostly around when primaries have to be completed by. Presidential elections have been held continuously since 1845. The “rush” to reopen certainly weakens the argument for postponing or delaying but demanding to do so might suppress turnout, which is all the repubs have left in order to win.HughFreakingDillon said:

Maybe the repubs will roll out a health care plan better, more tremendous and cheaper than Obamacare and run on that? Or run on Obamagate?09/15/1998 & 09/16/1998, Mansfield, MA; 08/29/00 08/30/00, Mansfield, MA; 07/02/03, 07/03/03, Mansfield, MA; 09/28/04, 09/29/04, Boston, MA; 09/22/05, Halifax, NS; 05/24/06, 05/25/06, Boston, MA; 07/22/06, 07/23/06, Gorge, WA; 06/27/2008, Hartford; 06/28/08, 06/30/08, Mansfield; 08/18/2009, O2, London, UK; 10/30/09, 10/31/09, Philadelphia, PA; 05/15/10, Hartford, CT; 05/17/10, Boston, MA; 05/20/10, 05/21/10, NY, NY; 06/22/10, Dublin, IRE; 06/23/10, Northern Ireland; 09/03/11, 09/04/11, Alpine Valley, WI; 09/11/11, 09/12/11, Toronto, Ont; 09/14/11, Ottawa, Ont; 09/15/11, Hamilton, Ont; 07/02/2012, Prague, Czech Republic; 07/04/2012 & 07/05/2012, Berlin, Germany; 07/07/2012, Stockholm, Sweden; 09/30/2012, Missoula, MT; 07/16/2013, London, Ont; 07/19/2013, Chicago, IL; 10/15/2013 & 10/16/2013, Worcester, MA; 10/21/2013 & 10/22/2013, Philadelphia, PA; 10/25/2013, Hartford, CT; 11/29/2013, Portland, OR; 11/30/2013, Spokane, WA; 12/04/2013, Vancouver, BC; 12/06/2013, Seattle, WA; 10/03/2014, St. Louis.

dude they are gonna run on obamagate. does anybody here really think they have it in them to do the actual work of creating an alternative plan and then trying to sell that to the american people?
their voters are lazy thinkers, so the leadership is going to be just as lazy."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

they can't stop the electoral college from voting but what they can and are trying to do is limit the access to mail-in voting. this is their new way of voter suppression. knowing some people may be reluctant to go to a public polling place during a pandemic the republicans are already doing whatever they can to limit the access to full mail-in voting. they have already tried to suppress it in California. It is also another sneaky reason by Trump talks about dismantling the USPS. If the USPS goes out of business before the election how can we have mail-in voting?0

No need to delay the election. Our glorious leader will be re-elected with 46% of the vote, which is fairly close to his current approval rating.0 -

my point was if the GOP shenanigans in Wis surrounding the primaries , including the WSC brought Ds out even in the face of CoVID , I think they will come out again in Nov.....

I'm am or I was before the pandemic. I do private duty nursing on Palm Beach island but that all came to a halt as my clients went into lock down mode. I told them that it's best they stay home and stay safe until there's a vaccine, they're just too vulnerable to this virus.josevolution said:

These wealthy folks are all snowbirds and this season is basically over this time of year. Hopefully, they'll return in the fall, many are flying out in their private planes. So until they return I'm a food specialist at BJ'S. I just hope Trump won't return to that club at Mar A Lago till November.

They paid me to stay home. I just saw the $$.
Just because Trump first wanted to open on Easter, PACKED CHURCHES and everyone was like pump your brakes bro, and then the WEEK of Easter he was like REOPEN NOW pussies, and now that's happening (except for in Massachusetts and Connecticut where they're EDUCATED) ALSO THERE's NO way I'm wearing a mask, and the Abbott tests we use at the WH are notoriously unreliable and Mike Pence totally has it. No more money for the socialist dems. Jesus.
