For somebody allegedly not a fan of Trump's, you do seem to go out of your way to promote his dishonest rhetoric. Everything @Subduction Zone said was true.

Is there a constitutional power that allows h to do that? I do t recall one, but maybe you are more versed in that.

If there is no election, he still leaves office in January. There is no constitutional authority that allows him to remain in office past that date without an election.

You don't have a point. All you have is rhetoric. Trump is unpopular because he is an incompetent buffoon. At times of crisis we usually fight together. Trump is such a poor leader that for the first time when we see a threat we are not working together.

Take that up with the divider and chief. His power depends on division and in this crisis, confusing the public. The fact that this administration is self-congratulating itself after 60k plus Americans have died....is utterly disgusting.

More likely is that the president will postpone the election for a year or two when the second wave comes in the fall.
He doesn't have the power to do that, it would take an act of congress. And will congress the way it is, I don't think that will happen.

Even if he could, in theory ,postpone the election, his term as president still ends in January of 2021. Who would become president would then go by the rules of succession. Those rules would be interesting

Very interesting indeed... because if Donald's out, it would stand to reason that Pence goes with him... next in line would be the Speaker of the House.

Well, maybe the Senate, but certainly not the House.

...which illustrates the silliness of any claim that President Trump will attempt to postpone the November election in order to stay in office.
