President Donald Trump, lagging in the polls and grappling with an economic collapse and public health crisis, on Thursday floated the startling idea of delaying the Nov. 3 presidential election. The notion drew immediate pushback from Democrats and Republicans alike in a nation that has held itself up as a beacon to the world for its history of peaceful transfer of power.

Trump suggested the delay as he pushed unsubstantiated allegations that increased mail-in voting due to the coronavirus pandemic would result in fraud. But shifting Election Day is virtually impossible and the very idea represented another bracing attempt by Trump to undermine confidence in the American political system.

Sharpest decline in economy in history, and what we get from POTUS is an inflamatory tweet about something unconstitutional. Big surprise.

How is it safe to open up schools and economies but not safe to vote in person. Get your messaging straight.

I will mask up and stand in line for the opportunity to hopefully take this twit out of the Oval. He has to be out of office by January 20th at noon according to the 20th Amendment so good luck to him in changing the Constitution. I mean, dude..did you know anything before you moved into the Oval?

Yup. But if someone is at the point of seriously calling the co-founder/co-chair of what’s essentially a conservative judge assembly and packaging line for the GOP a RINO because he criticized Trump, they should see someone, because that seems like a cult level of devotion and delusion.

Best. Trolling. Ever.

Trump is a pure genius at triggering the left with trolling Tweets.

The answer to that question is no, he had no idea. He thought the job meant absolute power to do everything he pleased. That’s why he loses it every time he realized he’s not the King and his word isn’t law.
