1. trump has spent the last 6 months telling his supporters that early voting is bad. as such they will by and large be voting in person on election day. 2. many states dont count early votes until polls close, and they're counted after election day votes. 3. trump will have an early lead as states count their election day ballots. 4. trump will go screaming to the supreme court the morning after the election as early ballots start shifting the vote against him. 5. they will fast track a ruling to stop the counting of all ballots and declare the election to "maintain the stability of the country" or some bullshit like that.
Yep, this is the play and there is a very good chance it works. Biden has to win with a landslide on Election day to stand a chance at actually winning.
