HELL YES!!!
A recent NYTimes Thomas Friedman’s column asked “Is Trump trying to spread COVID-19?” which deserves a two word answer…HELL YES!
Spread of the COVID-19 virus along with an inhibited or eliminated “mail-in ballot” effort is Mr. Trump’s election day salvation to a second presidential term.
With regard to the spread of the virus, there are approximately 120 days remaining to the November 3rd election day. With the current infection rate of 30,000 cases per day, there will be 3.6 million +/- new cases. This brings the total number of United States COVID-19 cases to approximately 6 million. Deaths will exceed 250,000. Trump’s testing cuts are to cover the infection of exponential progression.
With this infection/death rate and the states inhibited “mail-in ballot” programs, it will be difficult to staff polling places which probably will be reduced in both numbers and locations. As a consequence who will stand outside in a November line for 6 or more hours in order to vote?
Mr. Trump would be pleased to use the severity of the pandemic and the associated chaos to either cancel the election, challenge the outcome as being corrupted or some similar action in order to invalidate the election results. In doing so Mr.Trump would continue with the current representatives until a new election could be safely structured.
As the old political saying goes, “never let a crisis go to waste!”
Stupidity is not a synonym for leadership but can be used as a descriptive adjective. Fight for mail-in ballots
THE FUTURE BEGINS TODAY!
