Can't believe I just heard this on Fox News - Trump must be pissed!

The host and a reporter were agreeing,
there are no security issues in using mail-in or absentee balloting.

Also they said all major polls show Biden soundly defeating Trump,
and that Trump is going nowhere but down (in the polls),
due to his mishandling of the corona virus.

Donnie's going to have a hissy fit !

Everythin's normal! Normal, I tells ya! Repugs are willing to sacrifice your kids on the slim chance that numbers of infected will not get worse after schools open. Even if they do get worse, because he now has more control of the numbers, he will lie about it.

In front of the BOE. If I do not get my ballot by October it will go there. The Postoffice is saying 14 days.

We need to get that thing out of the PostOffice now! If Republicans refuse to help and pass the Pelosi $25 million they are dead meat with rural voters!

Yeah, you're right. The short-fingered vulgarian will undoubtedly
blow a gasket. Someone should point out to the Dimwit that it's
only going to get worse for him from here on. It wouldn't surprise
me one bit to hear that he's had a complete dissociative break. Or,
maybe, he tries to do his imitation of Vinnie "The Chin" Gigante's
"Lost Don" routine. Now that would be something to watch! Of
course, it didn't work for The Chin, and it won't help Comrade
Donnie either, but it would be a sight to behold!

Has there ever been an incumbent perform in this way within a few months of an election? His performance is perspective, but he is also pissing off quite a few people. I can't stand the POS personally!

You'd think he would throw a few carrots to fairly well everyone. I mean he does, but they are towards a shrinking group of assholes. Hell, he could have handled this virus correctly from the beginning and the election would be a slam dunk.

His motives are questionable! Does he not want to be elected again? Is it in the bag trough shenanigans?

Mail-in-voting is a total fraud, says his royal turdness. RIGGED, RIGGED he screams. Yet he, family, even BarBar vote by mail.

So the current turd line is mail-in-votes = fraud. You would expect that would be the line put forth by all his sycophants, including FUX News.

Meanwhile, Louis DeJoy has been hand-picked and appointed by the turd as the new postmaster general of USPS. He is now in the position of "fixer" of the USPS, as BarBar is fixer of the DOJ.

FUX News is now agreeing that there are no security issues in using mail-in or absentee balloting.

Therein lies the perplexing quandary. Is the turd NOW going to be of the opinion that vote-by-mail is totally acceptable?

Does that mean that the turd now thinks that DeJoy will be able to "handle" the "fraudulent" vote by mail issue, INSURING that there will be enough fraudulent mail-in-vote ballots for the turd, for a turd win? (Yes, it would be extremely complicated to do, but that hasn't stopped them yet...)

Between DeJoy "fixing" the mail-in ballots, and Putin "fixing" the electronic ballots, even if we have a huge GOTV effort, is a win for the turd all sewn up?

Enquiring Minds want to know...

Dems need to address both issues. We need to make sure the chain of possession of mail-in ballots be absolutely secure and beyond suspicion, AND have IT experts monitoring actual electronic vote tallies being reported, versus poll tallies taken immediately prior to the day of election.

If there IS a blue tsunami, the fraudulent votes would have to be HUGE to erase the actual vote. That discrepancy should be obvious when compared to the day before polls.

Substantial rewards for documented proof of vote tampering (Bloomberg, Steyer could assist?), with jail time guaranteed for offenders, would be a good place to start.

Just a thought.

Trump voted in Fla. giving Mar lego as his address, but Mar lego is not a legitimate residence address, it is deemed a business address.

I thought I read that Kaylee had used the wrong state address to vote by mail.

Just for the fact that they would be to easy to destroy, lose, never deliver or simply disappear. Now that tRump has his lackey set as the Postmaster General, I just see way too big of an opportunity for shenanigans.

The fix is in folks, we need to mask up, stand in line and cast our votes in numbers so overwhelming that nothing short of blatantly obvious voting machine tampering can steal this election.

I just think voting by mail completely destroys the chain of custody.
