Pence Encourages America To Vote Absentee But Not By Mail Somehow

Vice President Mike Pence bizarrely encouraged Americans to apply to vote absentee while also railing against mail-in voting on Monday night even though 1) they’re functionally the same thing and 2) President Donald Trump has attacked states for making it easier to apply for absentee ballots amid COVID-19.

The same logic trap as Obamacare versus the Affordable Care Act.

One is good; one is bad.

*wink *wink…somehow absentee is different than ‘by mail’. The President is VERY smart and he knows a lot!’ It’s one thing to be a loyal second in command and quite another to be a lying lapdog.

You know, I really don’t think I have ever had to ask for a ballot when I go to the polling station. They just give me one. It’s really weird.

Dumb & Dumber. Trump is Dumb, and Pence has a tad more smarts than Trump. Nevertheless, he repeats Trump’s nonsense & lies so that makes him Dumber in my book.

“And we want to encourage any American that is not able to go to the polling place for any reason to apply for an absentee ballot today,” Pence said.

“But this universal mail-in voting, where you’re going to see literally ballots showered all across the state, is ripe for fraud,” he added

So my smoke signal ballot might not count?

Dence desperately trying to save any chance he might have at the presidency he sold his soul for.

Quickest way to stop the people from voting - evict them.

No address, no vote. This is in their planning somewhere.

I am horrified. This is where we’re at.

You would think that Trump supporters would be catching on about now, but just this morning I encountered another group who is committed to fighting Covid with Hydroxychloroquine because that is what Trump and Fox News say works. Those TV doctors can’t be wrong. I have to be calling them all liars.

Classic GOP bullshit… when a ballot is put in the mail by a GOP voter it’s an absentee ballot, when it’s put in by a Democrat its vote by mail
