President Trump on Monday said that he “totally” endorses absentee voting while continuing to baselessly assert that universal mail-in voting is “fraught with fraud” amid his explicit efforts to cripple the U.S. Postal Service.

I will do everything in my power over to stop my opponents’ voters from being able to cast their ballots in the 2020 election.

Oh FFS. His scampaign is sending people requests for absentee ballots with his fucking picture on it.

Well…let’s face it, Washington would have had an easier time taking over the airports if Ben’s Post Office had delivered the orders quicker.

But Frederick Douglass did a great job.

Slow down the testing, slow down the mail. Slow down the whistleblowers, slow down the justice system. Slow down his tax returns. Slow down accountability.

I am sick and tired of the speed bumps.

As always, the fucktarded orange shitgibbon just makes it up as he goes along. What is a Universal Mail-in Ballot? He is implying falsely (i.e., lying) that everybody (humans, dogs, cats, goldfish, whatever) gets a ballot in the mail, like it or not, and can then vote, registered or not. Again, he is trying to put stink on the election, so he can claim it was rigged after he loses.

Voting should be the subject of the first debate - voting rights, voting mechanisms, security of elections, and acceptance of the results, whether you like it or not.

Jesus, why can’t a single reporter ask him if he thinks states like Oregon and Washington that have “universal” mailed ballots based on voter registration are running a fraudulent process? Should they change their voting systems?

Please, just one reporter, do your damn job! Follow the logic trail and ask that question. Hammer it home on every other WH flunky that tries to say “universal” mailed ballots are bad.

Joe can run down a ramp and drink water with one hand, at the same time.

He may not have been a crook, but I’m still pretty bent out of shape about his whole “early to bed and early to rise” balderdash. We’ve paid for that one for almost a quarter millennium.

My dog wants to know if he can get a “universal mail-in ballot” if he’s still on parole?

P.S. I’ve got your number, Toadglans, so please reply by mail.
