This isn’t a court case that you’re going to lose — you can’t continue it. It’s not a loan you’re behind on — you can’t default. And these aren’t taxes you owe — you can’t file an extension. It’s an election, and the certainty of it happening is like the sun setting in the west.

With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???

2. Good job of putting it in terms Trump can understand

I'd only add, the election is not a hooker you can pay off or a contractor you can stiff.

4. Even if he were to somehow delay it, the 20th Amendment says Pres starts a new term on 1/20.

.

Even if it's delayed, it could only be for a couple of months. He'd be out of office on 1/20/21, regardless.

5. Well, hopefully after the election when the Biden Administration completes their investigations,

there will be a big court case that Trump loses. Hopefully this results in Trump spending the rest of his life in prison.
