First of all I think President Trump's tweet about moving the election date is a dumb idea. He's trolling someone or someone(s). Judging by the newspapers and press, it worked.
The left seems intent on a wholesale move to mail in voting. It's something I could support if not for these two not insignificant objections:
1. Fraud. Denying there will be fraud and telling me it's paranoia or whatever for me to believe it to be so isn't a compelling argument. Anyone who would either buy into lies or lie themselves to justify a coup d'état by high level CIA, FBI, DOJ, Treasury, and State Dept. people, and who would also justify arson, violence, rioting, and defacing and vandalizing federal properties and personnel will also deny fraud even on a massive scale. You can't convince me that people who would run a coup d'état operation wouldn't run a mail in ballot fraud scheme.
2. Ballot counting will be a historic and epic clusterfuck (that's Marine talk for an embarrassment). It will be an absolute nightmare. There will be a combination of incompetence and (criminal) mischief at unprecedented levels across the country, everywhere where ANY objection can be leveled against the results or lack thereof. I would be beyond shocked if there wasn't ongoing, widespread conflict over results across the country still taking place after Jan 1, 2021. Every undesired outcome across the country will be challenged in courthouses, statehouses, the Congress and Senate. The meltdown will be the biggest embarrassment in US election history. Rioting? You ain't seen nothing yet!
Were it not for these two serious objections, I'd be all for it. But for way too many people in our great country, right and wrong have been subordinated to partisan party's desires. After watching some of the Barr hearing this week, and now hearing that the Appeals Court in D.C. will hear Judge Sullivan's en banc request, I don't think you can convince me that a nationwide mail-in voting system can be done honestly and efficiently.
