"Trump’s toothless threat to postpone the election underscores that he doesn't care about dragging Republicans down with him."

My own personal favorite line:
"The only thing important to Trump is the lie he can tell himself – and a fair number of his synaptically-challenged supporters – on Nov. 4th."

I hope no one misses this:
"Ironically, his continued attacks make it even more likely he will lose. Republicans listening to Trump and believing that the election has already been rigged will not have much incentive to cast ballots."

1/ As if on cue, the Washington Post reports that #GOP operatives are now worried about the effect #LoserTrump's attacks on #VoteByMail will have on Republican turnout.

3/ But, understand that this effects ALL REPUBLICANS running for office.
@SenCoryGardner @SenSusanCollins @SenThomTillis @SenMcSallyAZ are just at the tip of the spear. #LoserTrump's #VoteByMail will hurt every R candidate at every level down to dog catcher.

4/ #LoserTrump is effectively running an incredible #VoterSuppression effort - against his own voters!
I'm sure @madrid_mike has an even better take on the actual cost ...

5/ Maybe the most devastating problem for the #GOP of #LoserTrump's #VoterSuppression tactics will be the long-term consequences to the party.
If R voters no longer "trust" #VoteByMail, it makes it exponentially more difficult to track and turnout their own for years to come.

6/ Effectively, the #GOP will spend years, cycles and decades trying to undo #LoserTrump's idiotic move.
In the meantime, they will be fighting D's with an arm and a leg tied behind their backs.
