- Trump is looking to declare himself winner on Election Day, no matter how many mail ballots remain uncounted. He will say they are fraudulent. And if they tip the result against him, he will say that outcome is rigged, something he has already said publicly is inevitable.
And so, any such delays — whatever the USPS’s intentions — will be seized on by Trump to delegitimize all of those outstanding ballots.
There's a reason we've been talking about mail-in voting for months

I'm loathe to share anything from Sargent's "Plum Line", but this is the most important issue facing our democracy. I mentioned in chat how I've basically sealed myself off from the world. In my state, mail-in voting is currently illegal unless I'm claiming disability, so you bet your ass that I'll be going in-person to vote this fuckwad out of office, if I have to.
