    Undoubtedly. This afternoons press conference and his statements about getting the left to finally realize vote by mail isnt only unfeasible but would ultimately delay the outcome for months was spot on. He trolled up the little fishies and then set the hook. Got them all riled up about not delaying the election and then told them exactly how what they want would effectively do just that. Its classic Trump.

    i have no clue...because you started talking about absentee ballots which no one has an issue with.

    so you don’t think this civil case and criminal case is happening in paterson? why would these two sites make up these stories?

    Trump's latest desperate attempt at diversion has failed miserably.

    Trump on Thursday faced resounding, near-universal opposition from Republicans to his suggestion
    that the November election should be delayed due to unsubstantiated claims of mail-in voter fraud.

    https://www.politico.com/news/2020/07/30/trump-delay-election-gop-388290

    Concerned Americans and the media should all return posthaste to the disastrous plight in which he has placed the nation from which he would much rather they be distracted

    No, his ASSERTION of massive fraud by mail-in ballots is fake news on FuxNoise.

    tweet
    assertion

    Yeah, the two words look so similar. I can see how you could be confused... [​IMG]

    And yet...

    1) The fraud was detected
    2) The perpetrators arrested and charged
    3) They aren't profiting (gaining elected office) from their fraud

    Looks like the system is, in fact, working - in spite of their best efforts to defraud it. Not really a strong argument in your favor.

    Just sayin'...

    Let’s see how the public at large takes the dictator-lite question of postponing the election, something that has never been done in the history of this nation through war and pandemic.
    Will they:
    • A) Say trump is playing underwater 47D chess and just joking about sparking a constitutional crisis
    • B) Think that he is a wannabe dictator storming states with federal agents to arrest American citizens and his supporters are clowns in a cult
    He is currently polling at aggregate -12.1, anyone care to wager if that spread will increase or decrease?
    I know where my money is. Where is yours?

    It is ironic that massive electoral fraud in NC by Republicans, massive voter disenfranchisement attempts by Republicans, immoral gerrymandering tactics by Republicans isn’t enough to reevaluate the system but a single case that resulted in a conviction is enough to throw out absentee voting for all US citizens.

    Almost like they have to steal elections to win or something...

    Trump is never wrong. He is the most brilliant political mastermind in history.

    That so many of his base really believe this says more about them than it does him.

    Delay the Election? Great.

    Then Patrick Leahy becomes President.

    That will work just fine.

    Once again, Trump made a Total IDIOT out of himself.

    He has lost just about everything... His ability to lie and get away with it. The election... Credibility.... People actually taking him serious, and afraid many of his followers. The devout with high school education and below, they have nothing to lose and still look up to him because he is a racist... Outside of that group in the southern states and very rural area's, he is about done.

    Listening to him in the afternoon is just comical now. He starts off with some off the cuff stats.... Like Australia is up 350% and we are no where near that... A sound bite for the gullible is what that is... They have less than 50K total in the 6 months, we do that in a day.... But the fact remains, up 350% in Australia and FOX news, Brietbart can use it, twist it, and spin it into anti pelosi BS.

    It is sad to watch now

    He is actually running over his own supporters but they cannot see it for some reason...

    What was it he said about loving stupid people? I wonder why he loves them?

    Long Past 25th Amendment Time.

    Tragically, the "Adults in the Room" have long abandoned this embarrassing trainwreck.

    Trump will be in for a Rude Awakening on Nov. 3rd.

    The RW Meltdown on Faux (and everywhere else) will be glorious to watch.
