Family coordinated charm offensive to convince ageing supreme court justice to retire.
"The Trump family carried out a coordinated White House charm offensive to persuade Anthony Kennedy, a swing vote on the supreme court, to retire and clear the way for Brett Kavanaugh, according to a forthcoming book."
"In Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic Trail of Destruction, David Enrich, the finance editor of the New York Times, describes how the German bank became the last major financial institution willing to lend to Donald Trumps repeatedly defaulting business empire."
"Long before Trump ran for the White House, Justice Kennedys son, Justin, worked as an investment banker at Deutsche. Enrich describes how he developed a relationship with Trump, his daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner, helping to finance real-estate deals no other bank would touch because of Trumps record of failing to pay his debts to lenders, contractors and business partners."
...
"Dark Towers describes how Ivanka Trump befriended the judge, sitting next to him at an inaugural lunch, regaling him with accounts of her close friendship with his son, then visiting the elder Kennedy at the supreme court, bringing her five year-old daughter to hear a case about arbitration agreements."

See the trump goons at the polling place? Not possible if you vote by mail.
Greg Abbott learned this years ago - has coordinated and publicly embraced white militias (KSP) of True the Vote showing up at polling places with long guns, trying to intimidate voters.
That's one reason Barr doesn't like vote by mail. Can't have the terrorist goons with long guns show up to interfere with voters.

Rick Wilson said in his podcast that trump may be going off the air in AZ, FL
because the campaign is broke. Because of all the internal grifting and the pissing away of $1B raised.
He said the fixed monthly costs for staff alone is about $20,000,000. Which means the campaign has to raise more than that in a month to start to really grow its cash.
