I echo the sentiments of so many other FReepers when I say... no.

He’s gonna be fine. This will help him in the end.

Harris is a top debater. But if she’s smart then she will try to make it a boring event.

Just for President. 5 years should do it.

This is a ploy. The President has already done his part by nomination Judge Barrett. Now it is up to the Senate to do its part. (Do you hear me, Linda?).

Hey, Schmucky, did they postpone the 1918 midterms because of Spanish Flu?

Yes. Postpone them until 2024.

"Schumer thinks so.

If Schumer thinks the election should be postponed, then Trump must be winning.

Of course Chidi is dead. Which means someone will end up voting Democrat for him.

Someone tell this jerk that this is not an option.

Don’t give them any ideas. They are already trying to prevent a winner from being declared until weeks after election day.

Yes, and if another tropical storm seems headed for the Gulf Coast, we need to postpone the SCOTUS nomination until next year. How can we be so cavalier as to demand a vote on Barrett when disaster is threatening our SE coastal areas?

And if any wildfires are still raging in CA/OR/WA by tomorrow, how can we be so thoughtless as to demand a SCOTUS nom be processed before January? The 6 West Coast Senators would have to put down their firehoses & fireaxes & shovels & flame-retardant covid masks and desert their posts at the firefighting fronts in their home states, to rush to DC to vote. How can Trump/McConnell/Graham be so cruel as to demand that?

Gosh, I'm sure Schumpelosi have a ton more compelling, heart-tugging reasons as to why the vote can't come this year. Stay tuned ...

Not targeted at you A, but that is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.

Far fewer people involved in installing SCOTUS. We do not need Schumer and his henchman to go to a vote.

However, I would also not be adverse postponing the election until spring.

We totally agree, Chuck! Please tell all your friends and supporters to show up at the polls on November 17th. Please spread the word through the Democrat phone banks.

I was banned on Facebook for 24 hours for posting, "Republicans vote on November 3, Democrats on November 4". Just a cute little funny that even most libs laugh at. Now, the Stalinist FaceStasi is in full authoritarian mode.

Hold the hearings “as Trump would have wanted”.
