He is saying that if all of these mail-in ballots are used results will not be known for weeks or months, or ever with litigation.

We survived 2000. We'll survive this if the final results aren't known for a while.

Did not say “postpone it till X”, just threw the obvious back in the faces of the Press.

He said postpone it this morning and he didn't deny it now.

[Miss Didi]

Do you not know our POTUS by now??? He is always 10 steps ahead of the Dems.

[DoodleDawg]

He said his campaign is taking states to court over mail-in voting.

Knock themselves out. Elections are a state issue and they'll run them the way they want.

[Miss Didi]

See Post 47.

[GnuThere]

Press did not badger or talk over him today after he walked out on the CNN reporter last time. Ha!
It was brief & subdued, maybe due to Herman Cain’s death.

[DoodleDawg]

Do you not know our POTUS by now??? He is always 10 steps ahead of the Dems.

Well I imagine we'll find out in November.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Knock themselves out. Elections are a state issue and they'll run them the way they want.

Not necessarily. Bush v. Gore. A candidate has 14th Amendment rights. If your view was absolute Florida would have kept counting and Gore would have been President.

Rough.
I think the pressers will be rough for another week until good news starts coming in.

Cain’s tragic death especially put a damper on this one.

[Jrabbit]

This thread is like reading DU. What the hell has happened to FR??
So depressing. One reason we lose to dims is because conservatives trash their own. Oh well.....I need to fine a site that, at least, has some positive feelings for President Trump.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Yeah he’s in full COVID safety mode, dang it.
I guess he was preparing for one of the presstitutes
to jump him about his Tulsa rally killing Cain.

The rest of it was pretty good though.

[TBall]

Thank you! So much doom and gloom. The greatest President in my life and everyone wants to complain.

[Miss Didi]

My gosh, you need a stiff drink some times!

[Buckeye McFrog]

This thread is like reading DU. What the hell has happened to FR?? So depressing.

Did you watch the press conference? It actually was sort of depressing. Downbeat about the death of Herman Cain and really offered no hope of getting out of COVID Hell anytime soon.

[DoodleDawg]

He is saying that if all of these mail-in ballots are used results will not be known for weeks or months, or ever with litigation.

It is what it is. States are going to widespread mail-in ballots this election and there is nothing Trump can do about it. It took till early December in 2000 and we survived. Litigation has to be settled by the time the Electoral College votes. I imagine the Supreme Court will settle it this time like they did in 2000.

[Miss Didi]

Thank you! So much doom and gloom. The greatest President in my life and everyone wants to complain.

If people don't know or understand our POTUS by now, they never will. And like I mentioned earlier, VPOTUS was involved in TWO car accidents today. Think about it, FRiends.

[DoodleDawg]

If your view was absolute Florida would have kept counting and Gore would have been President.

Bush v Gore said that all counties in the state had to use the same standard for counting ballots. That shouldn't be an issue this time exactly because of Bush v Gore.

[mrsmith]

He’s gonna be in ‘safety mode’ for a bout a week as deaths peak.
But I think he’s restarted the pressers at the right time.
Go through the case peak, the death peak, and get that out of the way.

[olivia3boys]

Well we are still in COVID hell., more and more schools nationwide choosing not to reopen.

Eventually we will have to realize that we will need to reopen schools and accept a certain amount of death—the students” grandparents they live with mainly. And maybe some very old or obese teachers.

Otherwise the schools will stay shut for years. People need schools to be open in order to work.

[Buckeye McFrog]

The 2 crashes involving Pence were minor. His limo backed into a truck or something and then two motorcycles in his entourage clipped each other.

“He trolled the media with his tweet.”

Mail-in ballots, vote harvesting and the accompanying voter fraud have been a “side issue” for years, important to conservatives but rarely discussed by msm talking heads.

Today’s tweet just put the issue front and center.

“Mission accomplished.”
