Make Trump fight for the scraps. Assume victory, and then let the chips fall where they may.

It should be a Biden landslide. I am expecting that most of the major networks will call the election for Biden by roughly 11 PM Eastern time.

it's plausible. It could help spur on extra votes out West. Even if it proves to be wrong, it doesn't matter,

I was thinking, after all this ranting and raving about mail in voting, if it shows Biden leading on election night, he's going to be saying we need to wait on those mail in votes to buy time. I know he has no shame so he won't blink twice before declaring we have to wait for the mail in ballots after he's been saying it can't be trusted.
