(because they might want to do it, yes.)
But if Amy Coney Barrett is confirmed afterwards before the election, it will demoralize the dems absolutley.
The conversation regarding mail in voting seems to largely be suggesting that there will be widespread voter fraud (our side) and trump fears mail in voting because he will lose if it is allowed(their side)
But i think the reality is:
Dems know that without mail in voting, they are gonna get totally waxed.
The type of person that would "brave the elements" is decidedly more likely to be a trump voter.
The point being: without mail in voting, trump is an auto win. With mail in voting they think they have a fighting chance (they don't).
If they start mainly testing with antibody tests, then they will be able to pad the numbers of the total number of "confirmed cases" with people who have either gotten over the virus, or are asymptomatic to the virus.
This would make it appear as if we are having an uptick in the percentage of people testing positive (or number of people testing positive), and make it seem as if the virus is having a resurgence.
