Classic and completely expected. Rumors years ago were that he was also going to try to remove the 2 term limit.

You want to see riots, try doing this.
He won't he will be told in no uncertain terms by just about everyone in Congress and his party. Even the most die hards realize that his time is up. His enablers realize that after he is gone, there will be hell to pay, and they will be paying it.
There is also the minor detail that if the election is delayed, the law states that triggers the line of succession on Jan 21, 2021. Trump/Pence are out, and then it becomes President Pelosi.
I would love to be in the room when someone explains that to him. :rollin

Trump administration also yesterday gave $800MM of taxpayer money to bankrupt <$1/share company Kodak, claiming they will save us from Covid with random parts. Options and stock buying surged 10-100x the week before the announcement, proving people were in on the bailout and got rich because of it. I wonder where all that money will go.

Biden left little doubt of such a plan by Trump. He said, “Mark my words, I think he is going to try to kick back the election somehow, and come up with some rationale why it cannot be held.” It is just the type of thing that a crazed guy in a tightly buttoned raincoat whispers to you on the subway. But Biden was not finished. If you attended a recent online fundraiser, you saw Biden grow uncomfortably close and go on to explain that it was the Postal Service which actually revealed the conspiracy theory to him.
Biden alleged that the administration is pressuring the Postal Service to make changes in its operations as a condition for coronavirus relief. So as he explained, “Imagine threatening not to fund the post office. Other than trying to let the word out that he is going to do all he can to make it very hard for people to vote, that is the only way he thinks he can possibly win.” However, the other way would be that his opponent flees to the desert to live inside a bunker and protect his mail and “precious bodily fluids.”
Heh that didn't age well.

Time for the Biden campaign to start carpet bombing heavily Cuban areas of Miami with ads comparing Trump wanting to delay the election to Castro tbh.

It was gratifying to watch Mitch McConnell on the 5 o' clock news telling Trump no, we're having an election on November 3rd.

Turley is a suck up, but he did say one good thing today. That for TDS to be real the theories would have to be so outlandish that they could never possibly happen. Trump keeps pushing the envelope here.
Trump actually pinned that tweet to the top of his feed. He was absolutely serious, but looks to have abandoned it given the GOP crushed the idea.

Trump is too stupid to realize an election during a pandemic helps him, since 90% of his base doesn’t believe it exists and/or doesn’t gives a crap, so they’ll sit in a line for hours to vote.

Trump and Biden should both intentionally get COVID and whoever survives gets to be president. If neither does, we get Don Jr VS Hunter.

Fair is fairMy working hypothesis is that Trump was an asymptomatic super-spreader at some point. It wouldn't be a fair contest if Trump had already recovered and Biden had never been exposed.

I mean Bojo survived, but we've seen him do things like play rugby.
You really think Trump could survive this? He looks. Like absolute shit all the time and probably eats like it. No way he was a day zero case.
He'd tell the world he got it and survived it, had he.

And then we can get Hunter and Donny do what their heart pleases. Have them both up there and no holds bars. I think Hunter would just step up there and do an insane amount of coke and probably some crack, and then Don Jr could show off his knife collection, and we decide which one we want.
I just really hope we get a debate. The failsons or the real thing

Ducks, your home state of Arizona has had mail-in ballots for years, well before coronavirus. In 2018, I think roughly 80% of Arizona ballots were cast by mail. Why are you just now taking issue with mail-in voting? Use your own words please, no links or pictures.

It’s going to be hilarious when Trump is forced to drop the vote-by-mail conspiracy theories once we get closer to election time and he realizes that the only effect they’re going to have is to scare his base away from casting mail-in ballots.

This is a great point. Although I think old as dirt people have been using this method for years now so I’d venture to guess a good amount of trumpers know the deal and will still vote for him that way.
This line of attack on mail in ballots isn’t going to stop democrats from doing so.

Well yeah, but the 2016 election was a game of inches, and any scenario in 2020 where Trump wins will also be a game of inches where he’s winning key states by less than 1%. He can’t afford to be scaring even the tiniest percentage of his constituents away from voting.
