Trump has said that the United States shouldn’t have midterm elections this year because midterm voters often vote against the president’s party. Democratic congressional leaders have said they expect Trump to disrupt and dispute the midterms.
“It’s some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you don’t win the midterms,” Trump told Reuters in a recent interview. He then boasted that his presidency had accomplished so much that “when you think about it, we shouldn’t even have an election.”
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told the Associated Press that Democrats are concerned that Trump will try to prevent open and fair midterm elections.
Wow it’s almost as though midterms represent some kind of check and balance. Trump and the republicans stand a good chance of being wiped out.
Did America vote against the president in the last midterms? I seem to remember MAGA wanted a red wave and got sweet fuck all.
Shouldn’t have a felonious, rapist, racist, seditious, stochastic terrorist pedophile as president either, but here we are.
I really don’t give a fuck what this asshole wants.
His very existence in that office is illegal and immoral.
Yesterday he joked about it. Today he says it. Tomorrow he does it.
So the reason he’s come up with is literally just he thinks he’ll lose?
That’s a very good reason for there to be an election, Donny
No way. The dem votera will just find another distraction/ excuse to sit it out and he’ll get his third term. Calling it now.
DeM bAd
Wait, Schumer is the majority leader, not the minority leader? When did that happen?
Fuck off Shitler. I’m gonna vote even harder now!
(dark pen and a very assertive shove into the dropbox)
States control election.
Third or fourth time he’s said this, at least twice recently.
Well, he said you’d only need to vote the one time.
