Hear those squeaks? That’s the sound of President Donald Trump furiously back-peddling after months of a sustained campaign against voting by mail — at least when it comes to Florida.
Every single thing Trump does between now and November will be to try to secure his reelection. And he will use every lever of power at his disposal, legal and illegal, to do so. Everything must be viewed through this prism.
back-peddling back-pedaling
DeSantis must have told him that the crazies in the Villages are talking about not voting.
“What was cleaned up about Florida vote-by-mail, Mr. Trump?”
He’s more like a sitcom character who talks a bunch of contradictory self-serving nonsense than an actual human being at this point.
Yo-semites.
By validating Florida as a partisan exception, I think Donnie’s just shot himself in the foot (again) if any of his efforts to limit mail in voting go to court.
Not that it’s surprising: this administration is known for nothing so much as its epic faceplants.
All mail-in votes are equal but some are more equal like those in Florida…they’ve been cleaned with bleach!
Addendum:
AND they will ready as mulch on Mrs. Birther’s Rose Garden makeover…

ICYMI:
Per David Gelles (ExecProd, CNN Political & Special Events Programming)
8 states + DC will all vote-by-mail: CA, CO, DC, HI, NV, OR, UT, VT, WA
35 states allow voters to request mail-in ballots with no excuse: AK, AR, AZ, CT, DE, FL, GA, ID, IL, IA, KS, ME, MA, MD, MI, MN, MO, MT, NE, NH, NJ, NM, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, RI, SD, TN, VT, VA, WV, WI, WY
7 states require an excuse to cast a ballot by mail: IN, KY, LA, MS, NY, SC, TX
Allow me to translate: someone told him that he’s scaring his elderly supporters in Florida away from vote-by-mail and it’s gonna hurt him so hence this.

Whether you call it Vote by Mail or Absentee Voting, in Florida the election system is Safe and Secure, Tried and True. Florida’s Voting system has been cleaned up (we defeated Democrats attempts at change), so in Florida I encourage all to request a Ballot & Vote by Mail! #MAGA

Nothing and lots of it
I live here
Absentee is regulated by the local elections supervisors
Nothing has changed in the 15 years I’ve been in Central Florida
He will probably change his mind again when something sets him off
He’s unstable you know
in Florida the election system is Safe and Secure, Tried and True,”
A prop? Like the unzipped fly? Or like his hand that is a little close to second base?
This just in: Trump has a national testing plan for COVID-19. See the full plan below.
Kayleigh on Covid-19 response:
“This could only be accomplished by President Trump.”
There’s very little reason to doubt this.
There was one slight change, after 2018.
They’ve extended the deadline for people to correct their ballots if their is a signature problem. By two days.
Which, while not perfect, is better, since before you had to correct your signature problem before the election, which of course, locked out thousands of people who didn’t know there was a problem until the day off, or even after, the election.
Maybe he really is peddling backs.
Looks like you just fucked over your own supposed lawsuit against the state of Nevada. Asshole.
And speaking of Ne-VAH-da:
