That’s what I believe he wants. So he can declare a national emergency and grind all government to a halt - including the upcoming election.
Given that we have elections including a Presidential election during the civil war I do not think he could get away with not holding the election.
In fact If I remember hearing correctly Lincoln fear not being elected due to bad news from the battlefields at one point.
@BillRM,
Yes. I’m not saying he will get the election disruption he wants. I’m just saying he
wants it. His thuggish federal secret police are just an indication of the kind of desperate depths to which this “president “ will stoop.
Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro is right about Biden, who seems to have become besotted with his black advisers' suggestion of hiding behind the wall-which is to say, not to answer tough questions posed by Fox News.
From Fox News.
"During his interview with Chris Wallace last week, President Trump questioned whether the Democrats' presumptive presidential nominee, Joe Biden, could handle the barrage of questioning that Wallace posed to Trump.
The answer to that question – at least for now – we may never know.
Wallace on Sunday informed viewers that the Biden campaign told Fox News he was “not available” for an interview.
"In our interview last week with President Trump, he questioned whether his Democratic opponent, Joe Biden, could handle a similar encounter,” Wallace said. “This week, we asked the Biden campaign for an interview and they said the former vice president was not available.”
He added, “We’ll keep asking every week.”

The Trump campaign has hit Biden for months for abstaining from holding rallies and news conferences while continuing to do interviews amid the coronavirus pandemic. While Biden recently has returned to the stump, Trump and his allies continued to mock the former vice president for “hiding” in his home in Delaware.
Biden’s reticence to do public events, however, has done little to hurt his candidacy as the latest polls had Biden comfortably ahead of Trump both nationally and in key battleground states.
Real Clear Politics averages indicated the president was down 7 points in Florida, 6.7 points in Pennsylvania, 8.2 points in Michigan and 6.4 points in Wisconsin. Trump narrowly won all four states in 2016, flipping them from blue to red as he won the White House.
The latest Fox News Polls put Biden ahead in Minnesota, Michigan and Pennsylvania, with leads all outside the margin of error.
Polling also suggested Biden had a slight edge in Ohio, North Carolina and Arizona, three other important swing states this cycle. And, surveys indicated that once reliably red states such as Texas and Georgia were all knotted up between Trump and the former vice president.
Presidential elections in which an incumbent is running for a second term in the White House are often a referendum on that president – and that’s seen as being the case right now in the 2020 showdown between Trump and Biden. The top issues have been the coronavirus and an economy flattened by the pandemic – and the president’s performance and record on both issues."
Ben Shapiro also argues that Biden has his work out for him after he picks a far-left presidential partner bent on dragging Biden toward radical progressivism that has nothing to do with conventional liberalism thinking.
John Locke wouldn't have voted for Biden.
@goldberg,
My advice to Trump's black advisers. Be sure to get BLM going. Most non-black voters are not going to vote for a hypocrite trying to cuddle up to a mob of fire-breathing protesters and brigands.
Traditional liberals, who are incandescent at the way Biden's black advisers trample on conventional liberalism, are going to be fence-sitters as well.
That's good news to Trump.
Please keep being rioters to help Trump get elected, BLM's fans.
By the way, just don't try to find out what Biden said about school segregation if you are black.
@goldberg,
Since Trump has been anxious to be interviewed by CNN, MSNB, NYT ....oh wait, never mind.

Do you not also wish the police to keep killing innocent blacks?
@glitterbag,
Fox News is the most-watched news channel in America. CNN is the last one in terms of TV ratings.
I only watch MSNBC.
@goldberg,
So you say, sure, why not.
@BillRM,
Far from it. I think the white cop who killed George Floyd is guilty. Yet there is no reason to defund the police or even abolish police departments.
Please don't forget that some cops are black.
@glitterbag,
I'm still a liberal; however, I'm no fan of far-left activism.
@goldberg,
that has nothing to do with conventional liberal thinking.
@BillRM,
No comment. You should have asked coldjoint this question, not me. He is a fan of Trump.
I would support Trump if he were Reagan.

An no one in power or near being in power are wishing to defund the police at the most they wish to move some resources away from the police an use those funds so the police do not need to handle every problem in society criminal or not. criminal.
