Does he need an excuse?

 

[Wargames]

I don’t think so

 

[the cac mamba]

I don’t think so

i believe it depends on how he's polling

and OP just said suggest, not that he actually achieves it

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

He will either use that excuse or if Bernie doesn't get the nomination he will blame the dems for rigging the dnc and say an investigation is needed and suspend it for those reasons.

I dont even think he will acknowledge Coronavirus as a real thing, ever. Anything that makes him look incompetent he lies about. They been reporting all week that there are over 50 Americans affected and he got on tv yesterday and said it was 15, 10 of them are almost recovered and next thing you know it will only be 1 person or none. He was just pulling numbers out his ass on the spot.

If you also noticed he doesn't mention it by name either, he calls it "the problem".

Nah

Too late for that. And any attempt to further deny it will look even crazier if, as the experts are saying, that it starts spreading and causing disruption to businesses/schools etc.

The thing is he's already "joked" about all of the other autocratic fantasies he and his ppl have in their heads. The idea of "postponing" elections isn't a big stretch for these idiots.

Well, if he loses I think he's more likely to claim voter fraud...even now he still says he lost the popular vote due to illegals voting.

But the way things look now the Dems will probably pull defeat from the jaws of victory (as usual), so he may not have to.

It's not that he'll deny it exists but he can downplay the severity and since he has discredited the msm, he can fall back on that ploy and claim it's all manufactured against him. He's already doing that.

Yeah he'll definitely try that for as long as possible. I'm just saying that once cities start telling parents to keep their kids home from school that excuse will fall apart. I'm pointing to that very specifically bc very few things cause as much problems in an adults life as school being closed during the school year. That plays all kind of havoc in people's lives. Parents have to find someone to watch their kids and/or pay someone incredible amounts of money. Most americans probably make so little money that it makes more financial sense to stay home than to pay for child care. Lot of parents dont have jobs that give them flexibility to work from home, or take vacation/sick days/leave etc.
