This is why there will be a false flag attack on US soil and elections get “postponed”.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

There is no precedent of postponing elections in the U.S. There were elections even during the American Civil War.
Of course precedent doesn't seem to mean a fucking thing these days.
100% this is gonna happen.
You can fuck with children, just don’t fuck with gas prices.
Oh they’re going to fuck children
You can fuck ~~with~~ children, just don’t fuck with gas prices.
and said there’s “no way” Republicans can win under these circumstances
Democratic leadership: Hold my beer
Congress is made up of 94% Israeli uniparty
Voters: don't tell US what's best for us.
We've got Bebee netanyahooos kid to lead the party. We are announcing Israel as the 51st state. We also hired a pedophile cabinet to better reach across the isle.
Charlie kirks cadaver as vp
What's truly "stunning" is that so many people actually thought he was going to better on the economy, in the first place.
It was a race to the bottom to see who could be shittier.
Actually, I guess it was a race to the top; which party can siphon the most out of the American public and send it to the top (i.e. billionaires).
Guess they were not watching him in the first term, LOL.
But then, they don't really look at how W handled things, either.
Trumps first term got saved by Jerome Powell. Economy wise he didn’t do anywhere near as much damage as this time around. On top of handing out covid checks and printing money like crazy people think he did an ok job even though JPow was holding the economy together with scotch tape.
Lots of people somehow hadn't heard that he sent casinos into bankruptcy four times.
A guy I work with actually cited that as proof that he was smart, since he actually walked away free and clear after making a ton of money off the deal. Apparently, even bankruptcies are considered "successful" now.
Integer overflow. Fail so hard it is a "success"
LOL, dumbass donnie talked about low gas prices before he came into office the second time and just a few days ago said high gas prices will make us a lot of money.
Consistency is not really something that conservatives do....
And that guy almost gets it... trump is successful at burning everyone else and walking away with the money. Which is exactly what he's doing with the presidency.
He isn't a successful businessman, he is a successful conman. Idiots can't tell the difference.
He is making the classic mistake of thinking that he would be Trump in this scenario, and not the casino employee who lost their job
Even more stunning is how many people think the midterms are either going to be A. Honest and free or B. Change a goddamn thing
Midterms, like all elections, are run by the states. The states will be sending their elected leaders to Washington next year. I'm confident that the midterms in my state will be honest and free.
Not if the SAVE act passes. It breezed through the House. It might not make it through the Senate, but if it does, that one act will federalize elections, in addition to disenfranchising almost every married woman in the country.
“Independents” don’t really exist anymore. There are non-voters, and people who won’t admit they’re Republican.
There are non-voters, and people who won’t admit they’re Republican.
Ain't that the truth. Most especially that last part.
They are more properly called reactionary centrists. And boy, do they looooove Murc's Law. That's the tell.
