Last week, Joe Biden made perhaps the most shocking admission ever uttered in the history of presidential debates. On live television, Joe Biden confirmed his plan to ABOLISH the entire U.S. Oil Industry—that means NO fracking, NO jobs, and NO energy for Pennsylvania Families!

To the editor:
A letter writer criticized a Times editorial on President Trump’s attempts to undermine the election because it failed to mention Democrats’ attempts to set aside the 2016 election. The letter writer also criticized the left for never accepting Trump’s 2016 victory.
I’m not sure to what he was referring. Trump’s opponent conceded, the president was duly sworn in, and he has enjoyed all the powers of the presidency ever since.
Perhaps the writer was referring to impeachment. That’s a constitutionally prescribed process that would have required 20 Republican senators to vote with the Democrats to have Trump removed.
And even if that had happened, it wouldn’t have resulted in overturning the election, because Hillary Clinton would not have become president. Vice President Mike Pence would have succeeded Trump and would probably be running for president right now.
Ironically, if Trump loses in a landslide on Nov. 3, the GOP might wish that 20 of its senators had voted differently.

In a recent hearing on Judge Amy Coney Barrett, she was asked what seemed like a simple question: Do you believe the president has the legal authority to unilaterally delay an election?
Any American who respects the Constitution must immediately answer with an emphatic, “No!”
Instead, she hemmed and hawed, and said she would have to “consult” and “hear arguments.”
This is why she was nominated, rather than the usual hoopla over abortion and health care. She was nominated because she will support unlimited executive power, regardless of the Constitution.
Donald Trump, and the party he leads, are willing to overturn the will of the voters to hold onto power. He wants, and has appointed, judges he thinks will support him.
Judge Barrett will no doubt be confirmed by Mitch McConnell’s sock puppet Senate. But everyone who hasn’t yet voted has to understand that this year, a vote for any Republican is a vote to overturn the republic. They need to be defeated so badly that there is no chance that there can be any challenge. Then maybe the GOP, a once-respected institution, can come back to its senses.
