Oh that is epic trolling of a troll.

Yesterday, Trump announced that White House staff NOW have to wear masks.

 

Yesterday.

 

He says he doesn't need one, he doesn't feel vulnerable.

Jared Kushner clarifies after saying he’s ‘not sure’ he can commit to date for presidential election

By 
May 13, 2020 at 6:12 a.m. EDT

Senior White House adviser Jared Kushner raised eyebrows Tuesday by suggesting that there was uncertainty about whether the presidential election would happen in November as scheduled because of the coronavirus pandemic and that he had some role in making that determination.

Hours after his remarks to Time magazine generated a strong reaction on social media, Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, issued a clarification, saying he was unaware of and not involved in any "discussions” about changing the date of the 2020 election. Neither Trump nor Kushner as his adviser has any legal authority to change the timing of the presidential election.

The brief and disconcerting episode raised doubts about Kushner’s familiarity with the laws and constitutional provisions governing U.S. presidential elections. As the Congressional Research Service says, "The text of the Constitution does not appear to contain a constitutional role for the Executive Branch in such decisions.”

A federal statute says Election Day is to be held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November. "Since 1845, Congress has required states to appoint presidential electors on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November, which represents the date by which voters in every state must cast their ballot for President,” according to the Congressional Research Service.

 

Kushner’s comments are particularly fraught because some critics, such as former vice president Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, were already on high alert for an attempt by Trump to put off the election because of the coronavirus outbreak.

In Kushner’s interview with Time, he said while it wasn’t his decision to make, he wasn’t certain he could say the election would happen on Nov. 3 if there was a second outbreak of coronavirus in the fall.

His remarks were met with concern on Tuesday.

"Kushner’s statement reveals amazing ignorance of the Constitution and law,” tweeted Bill Kristol, the neoconservative political commentator and editor at large of the Bulwark. "It reveals startling arrogance in taking for granted he gets to have some say about when the election is held. It also reveals an utter lack of understanding of his very subordinate role in our democracy.”

Sherrilyn Ifill, president of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, echoed Kristol.

"Even putting this question to [Kushner] is an insult to the rule of law,” she tweeted.

Kushner felt compelled to give a follow-up statement to NBC News, with the White House clarifying he knows the election date is set by federal law.

"I have not been involved in, nor am I aware of, any discussions about trying to change the date of the presidential election,” he said.

As states have postponed or canceled primary elections during the pandemic to help limit the spread of the virus, concern among Democrats over whether Trump would attempt to delay the Nov. 3 election, or implement policies to make voting even more troublesome, to get reelected has mounted in recent weeks.

Biden offered an explicit warning to a group of donors last month about the potential for the election to be moved, The Washington Post’s Annie Linskey reported.

 

"Mark my words, I think he is going to try to kick back the election somehow, come up with some rationale why it can’t be held,” Biden said during a virtual fundraiser.

Kushner’s noncommittal response on the election date is at odds with his father-in-law’s own public position.

"The general election will happen on Nov. 3,” Trump said at a news conference last month.

But the president, like he has often said without evidence, has also attacked mail-in voting, claiming such a practice is "RIPE for FRAUD.”

"I think that mail-in voting is a terrible thing,” Trump said last month. "There’s a lot of dishonesty going on with mail-in voting, mail-in ballots.”

Remember when I said Trump would float this idea and everyone called me crazy? Good times.

Everyone knows I’m not a fan of trump, but I’d be surprised if he moved the election. He’ll float it out there, of course, to get a reaction out of the people he wants to needle. But, there in lies the problem. A little less needling and a little more presidenting is all most people are asking for. Christ, so far he’s tweeted the equivalent of about 97,462 NCAA brackets.

I've been calling this maniac an authoritarian since the spring of 2016. People laughed.

He won’t be successful. I just said he’d float it out there just like he’s floated the idea of a third term. I was surprised how many Trumpbots clutched their pearls in shock as if he would never suggest such a thing.

They’re probably just worried because they know if he does, they’ll have to reverse every position they’ve ever held and support it.

Just imagine Obama's daughter saying she didn't think the election could happen in November.

The GOP heads exploding would be visible from space.
