I think the ONLY good thing to come out of the current pandemic is it will put the last nail in Trump's political coffin. What wories me is how one will have an election in November, as this will sadly not be over by then and voting by mail would both be oppossed by the Republicans, and nearly impossible to set up in time. Voting by some electronic means would also not be possible in the time available, and some do not have connection to the internet. Both means would also be subject to manipulation without being very carefully constructed and thought out by neutral experts. Best I can think of is an extended voting period, with wide distribution of the ballots before and drive up, drop-off of ballots and individual walk up, drop-off for those without cars. It will make a mess of the election, if one can even be arranged! Trump will surely try to declare some kind of emergency situation and try to cancel the election.Constitutionally, Trump/Pence cannot remain in office as of January 20, 2021 even if there is no election - which of course would mean Nancy Pelosi becomes the first woman president of the USA - I would pay to see the republican's faces if that happens.
