Trump suggests US election to be delayed. Who thinks this is a good idea?

Debate Information

Trump claims that voting should be delayed until people can safely vote suggesting that people going out to vote could be a danger to their health, and that mail-in ballots are going to be fraudulent.

Is there a single person who thinks this is a good idea?

I think this is a very qualified "no" on both sides of the political isle.

First off, the US has never delayed an election. Not during the civil war, not during WWII, so I see no reason that we should delay it for a pandemic. It would be a disgrace to our government if we did so.

Second, the president has no authority to do so, only Congress can make this decision and is very much not interested in doing so.

There is a hard deadline of January 20 in the year following the general election IAW the 22 Amendment to the constitution, in which case congress decides who is president and will likely chose a democratic candidate.

To even suggest that the election should be delayed is a disgusting example of Trump's authoritarian ideals and his gross incompetence. If you desire freedom, you will not get it from Trump who only wants to control and manipulate. Trump is against equality and believes he is above the law. He thinks he can do whatever he wants at the risk and damage to anyone else, he obstructs justice and violates national security.  He needs to be brought to heel in the upcoming election.

Is there a single person who could possibly think that delaying the election is a good idea? In my opinion It is blatantly ignorant to think or even suggest so.

At some point in the distant past, the universe went through a phase of cosmic inflation,
Stars formed, planets coalesced, and on at least one of them life took root.
Through a long process of evolution this life 
developed into the human race.
Humans conquered fire, built complex societies and advanced technology .

All of that so we can argue about nothing.
