Jonathan Allen: “Joe Biden’s campaign is trying to win at the ballot box. President Trump is maneuvering to hold power.”
“In other words, Trump may try to keep the republic even if he loses the election… The president has long hinted at the basic asymmetry of his goals and Biden’s, and on Wednesday he again refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power regardless of the count of votes.”
“At the same time, his friends, family and political advisers are advocating for voter intimidation and violence after the election, and Trump is racing to confirm a new Supreme Court justice in short order, which could safeguard his re-election if the battle ends up in litigation.”
