Slow Joe Biden Covers Himself With Glory Once Again

This genius has now claimed that Trump is planning to delay the election this November. 

He said, “Mark my words, I think he is going to try to kick back the election somehow, and come up with some rationale why it cannot be held.”

He's been in the government at high levels for decades, but Slow Joe has no clue.  Let's consider how the presidential election works.

Elections are managed by the states and not the federal government under Article Two. The date of the presidential election is set by federal law and not subject to an executive order. Even war or martial law does not suspend the date of the presidential election. Since 1845, Congress has mandated that the presidential election be held the Tuesday after the first Monday in November every four years. In order to change that date, Trump would have to have both chambers of Congress vote to do so.

Finally, any delay in the election would also collide with the 20th Amendment, which extinguishes the power of the prior president at noon on January 20. Even if Trump persuaded Congress to delay the election past January 20th, his term still constitutionally ends on that date unless he is reelected. In other words, Trump cannot stay in office past that date unless he's lawfully re-elected.

It speaks volumes that either Biden is this clueless about the law - this is his third run for the highest office - or he is this shameless about lying to the electorate, counting on the fact that no one understands how the process works and will therefore believe his blatant lies.  

Which is it, Joe?
