Thousands of Americans [NF: even if true, about as many as think the earth is flat] think President Donald Trump may try to cancel the 2020 election by citing the coronavirus pandemic. On the left and right, they envision him declaring a national emergency, using those newly invoked powers to suspend the November vote and extend his first term in the White House.
Its not purely paranoia. The pandemic has already canceled campaign rallies, postponed the primary election in Louisiana, and raised ideas to nix the parties nominating conventions. Trump, for his part, has often lied about his last election to justify his political power, and most specifically, he retweeted a suggestion last year from Jerry Falwell Jr. that his first term should be extended by two years.

These losers need to run home to their boyfriends where they can cry in their arugula salads and binge watch RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Why are we wasting time with anything this trash publication writes? BuzzFeed is the personification of the Twitter trash land in print!
Have no fear. The left has already thought of that. They’ll just have mail
in ballots and send their people 6 each.
You’ve watched Gabriel Over the White House one too many times.
Yeah, anyone who thinks this President would cancel his own blowout landslide asskicking hes about to administer must live in a galaxy far, far away.
Damn straight!!!
Right now the only people cancelling elections are Dems and Brits.
Why are we giving Buzzfeed clicks?
They never quit being wrong.
People need to stop this BS, it isn’t going to happen. In our history no national election has been canceled or postponed.
If Lincoln and FDR did not do it then it isn’t going to happen.
I would love to see it just to drive the liberals screaming insane.
What will happen? I imagine leftists will call him a Nazi Hitler Fascist or something.
This article is stupid, but it makes me think that the dems will try to convince as many states as possible to allow voting online. That would let them commit fraud on an unprecedented scale.
My friends in Scotland all thanked me for us coming to the rescue.
Charlie was a radar tech in England then, he said that after Dunkirk if the Germans had sent para troops over, the UK would have folded.

If it gets postponed even six months, there candidate will have to debate wearing diapers and be sucking on a pacifier.
Yawnnnn...
So they’ve never actually read the Constitution
My sister, who was 8 or nine at the time, doesnt remember much at all.
Probably because she was in boot camp or landing on some
beach...
