Trump and his advisors know he can't do that. Almost every dictator has fake elections to placate the people and identify the opposition. This is a distraction and he's going to "allow" elections (promise he says it like that implying he has the power to disallow them) but he will fuck with the integrity of the vote through intimidation, fraud, and legal challenge.
