    Most especially will remember how most Responsible Texans stayed home, distanced themselves, and followed normal mitigation efforts laid out by the WHO and CDC, made all those personal sacrifices- AND NOW OUR REWARD IS HAVING TO REMAIN IN OUR HOMES AND START ALL OVER AGAIN, Children not being able to even go back to school, and most people still can't even go back to their jobs- BECAUSE OUR GOVERNOR DIDN'T TAKE THE VIRUS SERIOUSLY WHEN HE SHOULD.

    I'm very pissed about how this governor and our Republican STATE legislators, our Republican Attorney General, State Comptroller, both Republican State Senators and House Members tried to cover up the Virus and pretend it didn't even exist and failed Texas!

    There is enough frustration in our state to turn this state blue come November the 3rd.
    It would be fun, once the Rona is gone, for us Texans to have a celebration.

    No. We will have an election. Trump has no power to stop it.

We are in uncharted territory.
    Trump has no power to cancel the election. It would be best if you were asking yourself why Congress has always given Trump everything he wants.

    Not Congress. Senate Republicans. I don't have to ask. I already know.

    Congress does nothing to help the American people. It is all a sham.

    He is now, but will he be this time next year? Doubtful. COVID has clearly proven the need for M4A.

    That is a non-sequitur.

    Thank the goddess for that, he does have the power to screw up the post office and he can dissuade some Republican states, like Texas, through their Trumpublican governors, not to adapt mail in voting.

    Yes, he would still be against medicare for all. He might not even be functioning in a year.

    Or is it an example of Trump clearly doing something he wasn't allowed to do.

    If he extorted Ukraine, why wouldn't he cancel the election?

    Great! Then we get Harris who was a co-sponsor of the Medicare for All bill Bernie submitted in the Senate.

    Do you really believe that the postal service cannot get ballots to the voters in three months?
