“I never even thought about changing the election date. Why would I do that? November 3. This is a good date. No, I’m looking forward to this election, ” trump told reporters.
In addition, the American leader called these statements “fictional propaganda” launched by Biden’s campaign headquarters.
On April 14, Vladimir Vasiliev, chief researcher at the Institute of the USA and Canada of the Russian Academy of Sciences, said that the us presidential election, which is scheduled for November 3, may be postponed to a later date due to the coronavirus pandemic.
According to him, there is a growing feeling in the United States that the administration is not coping with the situation around the coronavirus, which leads to an increasing economic crisis. Democrats intend to take advantage of the situation to defeat trump in the election.
