This sure is a convenient excuse for IQ45 to agitate that the election must be postponed ...

[mr_lebowski]

Also gives him a great excuse for LOSING when it's not postponed.

And then that losing will provide something for him to publicly whine about for all his remaining years.

As well as something for Cult45 to piss and moan about endlessly.

Just sayin'

I expect his lackeys to soon demand that Biden cease all campaigning (and ads) on account of it's 'not fair' to poor Donnie.

[Rule of Claw]

1. For the gazillionth time

it can't happen. It isn't one election. It is 51 separate elections.

Election goes on.

[Thekaspervote]

5. +1,000,000,000

[mr_lebowski]

9. I never said it can happen, did I now?

Might read more carefully next time

[Dem2]

2. pfft

We're playing his game when we go out on these limbs.

[mr_lebowski]

10. Not going out on any limb ... he's already agitated to postpone the election ...

Just saying it is another excuse for another round of the same bullshit.

[Hoyt]

3. Unconstitutional. But it does give him an excuse for losing big. Only

ignorant white wingers will believe it. Also think trump is looking for a way to ball up and hide.

[bdamomma]

4. the election

will not be postponed, just VOTE.

[Silent3]

6. I think this forum needs one of those "sticky" messages at the top...

...that says THE ELECTION CANNOT BE POSTPONED!!!

A few idiots might talk about it, but it'll never be anything but blowing smoke.

[mr_lebowski]

11. I didn't say it could be postponed ...

Might read more closely next time rather than assuming people are claiming postponement could or would happen.

[jorgevlorgan]

7. He doesn't need an excuse

He will always act like a bloviating a-hole. It is in his blood. Mixed with the covid.

[yellowcanine]

8. Nah. Postponement won't happen. And I don't give a crap what excuse he comes up with for losing.

He is going to piss and moan when he loses. So what?

[mr_lebowski]

12. I am slightly worried about him having excuses for refusing to accept the results ...

As well as what his dipshit followers might resort to when he eggs them on that he (and hence they) were cheated in the whole deal.

But I'm not worried about the thing not happening.

[JCMach1]

13. Nah, this is a 25th Amendment situation. I expect to hear rumblings today

You cannot be Covid disoriented and carry the nuclear football.

[mr_lebowski]

14. Well it's been a 25th situation since the day he took office, but ...

Yeah, perhaps more acutely now ...

[peggysue2]

15. I've been reading tweets to this effect since the announcement

Multiple requests to delay the election. Because of fairness, because the The Boss is sick and can't campaign.

My response: Hell No!

Don't we all recall Trump's reaction to Hillary Clinton coming down with pneumonia? The mocking, the calls for her to withdraw, yada, yada.

Karma is making her presence known, big time!

[mr_lebowski]

17. Yeah ... as my post suggests, this was all very predictable. Betting the next angle up will be ...

convincing us all that he was sickened during the course of his 'Presidenting' duties (such as they are) as opposed to campaigning, golfing, rallying, raw dogging porn stars or whatnot.

And that therefore his case deserves a special dispensation of the sort that has never even been considered for anyone else in our 230 year plus history

[treestar]

16. He will use this to explain his loss

That he could not campaign due to Covid. He doesn't want to postpone but have an excuse to point to that he can use to explain his loss, other than that the People just didn't want him to have another term.

[mr_lebowski]

18. In the end I suspect yes, that will be exactly what comes of it (nt)
