In all seriousness, it is endlessly frustrating that we can't find a sound candidate who is a solid citizen, knowledgeable about the law (without being an attorney), not failing cognitively, and presidential enough so as not to be a laughing stock.

Where are the statesmen?

Taken on socialism and brought the matter into the daylight. Brought ANTIFA into people's awareness. Faced down the BLM nonsense. I rate Trump for that alone.

Hi Todge. Just for the purposes of a benchmark, which was the last POTUS who was up to Trump's standards?

I rather like what I heard about Eisenhower, and Reagan had a lot of strengths as did George Bush.

Re: Trump wants to delay the presidential election!

I was once a Trump supporter... no longer. Every time he opens his mouth, he embarrasses me. He has as much chance of delaying the election as I do of flapping my arms and taking flight.

So, what are the characteristics of Trump .....

I'll start off with narcissistic, delusional, ignorant and semi-literate .....

Which is a sad reflection on the opposition. With a population of circa 300million, is that the best they can muster???

I've never seen Trump run - I've always assumed, since he can't do his jacket up, that he's too fat to manage more than a waddle .....

Re: Trump wants to delay the presidential election!

Republicans to Trump: You can't delay 2020 election

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-53599363

Top Republicans have rejected President Donald Trump's suggestion that November's presidential election should be delayed over alleged fraud concerns.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy both dismissed the idea.

Senator McConnell said no US presidential election had ever been delayed before.

"Never in the history of this country, through wars, depressions and the Civil War, have we ever not had a federally scheduled election on time. We will find a way to do that again this November third," he told local Kentucky station WNKY.

Mr McCarthy echoed him. "Never in the history of the federal elections have we ever not held an election and we should go forward with our election," he said.

Mr Trump does not have the authority to postpone the election, as any delay would have to be approved by Congress.
Finally, something that cannot be controlled by "Presidential Executive Order" …..
