suburban lifestyle dream  :girlaff

so what are odds of a Biden win and he coasts through a low-effort term just putting all of Obama's laws/rules/regs back on to undo everything the Trump administration has done in a similar manner? do we just pretend it never happened?

If the Dems get the trifecta, they probably come in with a more ambitious agenda than that but don't get much of it passed.

Assume no Republican votes for anything, one reconciliation bill a year as the only way to pass anything (until you convince the Senate to ditch the filibuster, which won't be immediate even if it happens) and a big chunk of time/energy/focus sunk into responding to the virus and its fallout, the usual slow pace of Congress, and a two year window before the GOP wins back the Senate and maybe the House in the midterms.

Can't wait for balancing the budget to be important again after a four year hiatus!

spoiler (click to show/hide)
I'm interpreting the recent deficit chatter from some GOP Senators as a tacit admission that Biden's probably going to win.

Only one person at resetera understands the plan

Quote
He's going for a Contingent Election. If no Presidential candidate reaches the required amount of Electoral Votes to become President-elect the 50 states vote on who becomes President with each state having 1 vote. And since the Republicans have the majority in 26 states they could re-elect him that way.

Math checks out. If 5 or so republican held swing states delay the election, no one hits 270 and we get the scenario where each state gets one vote, and there are more red states than blue states

Trump's got that covered, he's trying to get a new 1.3 billion dollar FBI HQ built via coronavirus aid.

Obviously much has changed since this happened, but a story came out the other day that Trump gave the CIA a lot of latitude to do cyber crimes warfare against Iran in 2018.

He also cozied up to the CIA (that famous speech he made early), it's not clear he's always so antagonistic with them.

They've been working on a new FBI HQ for a while. Trump's interest is in blocking a planned move the suburbs.

The current HQ is across the street from one of his hotels and he wants to block that spot from being redeveloped into a competitor.

i don't see how 3.5 years in people think the man is playing 4D chess. the answer is always an Occam's razor of "what is the stupidest/laziest grift possible?"

The real question is what else is going on that Trump is trying to distract from with that delaying election tweet?

Moving to remove troops from Germany after speaking with Putin?
The Axios interview?
Herman Cain catching 'rona at his rally and dying?
The general 'rona deaths and cases numbers?
Trying to steal the spotlight from John Lewis/Obama?

I think it’s him realizing he has no chance at winning in November given the current state of the country.
