The Trump campaign responded with a statement that was an incoherent word salad of Trumpist conspiracy theories against Biden and Democrats.

The law doesn’t give Trump the power to unilaterally delay elections, but that doesn’t mean he won’t try—and of course he has Senate Republicans and a lot of judges he’s appointed to back him up.
