    He has a lot of things going his way, for starters, he is the incumbent, and incumbents seldom lose

    Secondly, he is Trump, meaning he will have every element for the Federal Gov't working in his behalf, legal and illegally

    Third, he will get a boatload of assistance from foreign entities. They all know Trump rewards "friends," and they saw that Russia got away with it with zero consequences, so anyone looking for a Trump IOU will jump in, and why not, they know bill barr ain't going to do anything, plus an entire news network and American political party will not only turn a blind eye but possibly defend their actions if caught

    Fair enough, but I still don't think it's enough...

    Incumbents were also seldom impeached and suspected of many other Constitutional violations.....

    And also seldom this personally.......... hmmm..... what word to use here??......... distasteful...

    But it's not a cakewalk, I grant you that... Trump is toe fungus.... VERY hard to remove completely....

    Either voting by mail works or it doesn't. This half and half BS is just that. BS. If it's good enough for the POTUS, then it's good enough for everyone else.

    Also, this is the same song and dance as last time.

    Isn't threatening to withholds funds when a state is choosing to conduct elections how it sees fit > something its Constitutionally guaranteed > because you think there might be voter fraud > in order to make them conduct the elections the way you want them to > presumably the way you think would benefit you ...isn't that voter fraud too?

    Trump warns of a rigged election, the democrats warn of a reelection. The November election results won't be finalized until 2036 and the real winner will be the lawyers.

    You must admire him to emulate him as you do. In this case, he is right. People do cheat and there is a need to secure our voting process so that every vote matches the choice of a live voter.
