unconstitutional
As if the enemy gives a shit about that.
Trump = Project 2025 = Authoritarianism Happening right before our eyes. He believes the only way to win is to rewrite the rules of democracy. He is trying to win the midterms by changing voting rules and gerrymandering districts.
There are currently 34 countries that allow mail in voting.
Well he some how rigd the 24 so why not just keep going?🤷♂️
While Trump is completely insane we are getting to the heart of the coming war against an out of control federal government as he begins to attack the states. There’s going to be a lot of fighting and Governors and AGs can do much to retaliate. @democraticags.bsky.social @govpritzker.illinois.gov
Elon won't be rigging anymore elections for him.
But if he does all this, how will he be able to find excuses next time he lose?
1) The US is not the only country using mail in voting. 2) Without mail in voting nobody overseas in the military can vote. 3) What is watermark paper voting? 4) Guess the Constitution's text about voting and states' rights doesn't matter anymore.
It never mattered to the Nazis. And Trump doesn't want the military, whom he calls suckers and losers, to be able to vote.
What a loon!
F*cking Fascist!!!
Remember folks: If you vote for trump, you’ll never have to vote again!
We will have elections and we will be able to defend them if we work relentlessly.
I was referring to trump’s own predictive words, but I agree.
He keeps saying no other countries have mail in ballots, meanwhile, both countries that have lived long enough to vote in do. And they cause us zero problems.
UK, we can vote by mail. Please take the car keys away from Grandad
Well, it's now up to the people, America. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO
"The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators."
Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1 United States Constitution It would appear that the President has zero say in the matter.
Coup part deux! Destined to fail like the last time.
Nope. Nope. Nope.
Two words: "States rights". Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Let's see what Maggie Haberman has to say......
No way...executive orders are not law
Australia has postal (mail in) voting. FFS Americans are dumb if they buy this 💩 that Trump is dealing out.
Yeah, collectively, we are fuck-all supid.
Mail in ballots are permitted in Canada. No big deal. www.elections.ca/voting-by-mail
It was never a problem until the criminal & pedophile was elected to the office. No doubt the pathological liar has to cheat to win. No doubt many of the cult believe this Nazi/psychopath & liar. This is what fake news does to a nation. Lies destroys a country. Every dictator lies.
Or what?
Trump is getting scared. If he is impeached, he goes to jail.
34 countries use mail in ballots. Is it ignorance or deception?
I think an issue here is that the complicit Governors: (West Virginia, Florida, Texas, Ohio, South Carolina) will take heed and do what he says.
No, they are not.
I don't think the Constitution says anything about states simply being agents to carry the president's whims. The GOP used to be all about state's rights. Where are they? I'm sorry, but the presidency of this man needs to end...as does the term of every GOP elected that stays silent. This is sick.
There’s so many idiots in this world.
Everything is a hoax. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
In Australia we have mail in voting, called postal or absentee votes. 🦘🇦🇺
So many ways to fix the election if one even occurs. Extreme gerrymandering , disqualification of voters, intimidation, martial law in cities, and now this.
Trump has no power when it comes to elections .. rise up
As if he gives a fuck. He has no power to do a lot of the shit he's doing but he's doing it anyway.
Those of us having read the Constitution know that the President HAS NO ROLE in the administration of elections. An executive order is NOTHING here.
Pigs ass they are
Do we think Putin told him this the way he said? The man can't speak to anybody without a ranting bitch session about how he was wronged. He likely wouldn't stop complaining about the mail-in-ballots from 2020 when they should have been talking Ukraine, so Putin agreed so he'd shut the fuck up.
More Dictatorial BULLSHIT from the SICKO & his Project 2025 Nazi Minions!
I get this after I voted Mail-in ballot… been voting like this for years. Safe, legit, and necessary where I live.
I've never gotten that notification. And I've voted by mail in 3 elections in a row.
Here in California, you have to sign up for the service, and agree to receive notifications by giving them your phone number or email.
hahahahahahahahahaha. . . 2026 is coming. . .
I live in dread of the misters, also because of all the militarized groups he pushes to flood the streets.
He will withhold money from states who refuse to do it. Just like he's doing with FEMA dollars and other federal funding. Even places like Portland are redefining priorities to remove diversity programs to maintain federal funding. He's holding the purse strings and CONGRESS is letting him.
At least 40 countries used postal ballots in their most recent national elections Nine countries offer no-excuse mail-in voting, meaning voters don’t need to provide a reason to vote by mail: Canada, Germany, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Poland, South Korea, Switzerland, and the UK.
Postal voting is most common in Europe and North America, and also used in parts of Asia-Pacific (e.g., India, Indonesia, South Korea, Sri Lanka)
Sure. Release the #EpsteinFiles
donald trump votes by mail in ballot. 😂
I believe every time he tweet rages like this he is actually seeing blood in his stool and it scares him. Since we cannot get an accurate report of his health, these tweets now determine just how much he is bleeding from his ass.
Bullshit
Says the guy who votes via mail in ballot. Honestly, I thought I'd see this tweet yesterday. I bet Vlad wasn't happy it took him so long to post this.
“Right the midterms…” Have you not read Project 2025? It specifically states there will be no elections in 2026 nor 2028!
Such remarks risk becoming a self fulfilling prophecy. Elections are run locally. Make sure your local jurisdiction is well prepared.
Do you have a cite for that please and thank you?
Is there any actual evidence that postal voting favours Democrats?
EO’s are not law and he can’t control state elections even though he thinks he is king. 🙄 Some states only vote by mail. (WA, OR and CA.) He lost in 2020 bc more people voted by mail bc of Covid. They couldn’t manipulate the data.
...proof that MAGAts are liars. On some things, they claim to support "states' rights" but yeah they're full of shit. #VoteBlue #resist #impeach4547 #impeachthemf #stopmaga #imprisonmaga #vote #votebymail
They are not required to do anything until laws are passed by congress. People have got to stop treating EOs as gospel. They are a president's wish list nothing more. Never seen anything like this...
They may not be REQUIRED to obey the EOs but most of the states, the ones controlled by Nazis, WILL.
Tell him to either come tell me that to my face or fuck off.
LOL. No EO is a law and no state has to follow it.
EO’s aren’t law. Trump is a tyrant with these unlawful and unconstitutional edict’s
But he will, like usual, get his way, cause bribes and threats and all that nasty corruption shit..
So, Trump wants to federalize how elections are run, but the constitution plainly says that power, to run their elections, resides with each individual state. It just amazes me how this country had free and fair elections for 250 years until Trump showed up and said they weren’t fair. Amazing!!!!
1/ Well, that same provision says Congress can change it … but that’s gonna be a hard row to hoe. I mean they’d have to get everything through committees and voted on in both houses before the end of December to count in this session. (Cont’d)
2/ And that would only give states two months to change their entire voting systems before primaries begin in March. So yeah, I don’t think so. Of course, I’m guessing he only cares about 2028 anyway.
I believe Trump is really concerned about the midterms. History has shown that typically the party in power at the midterms loses some, if not all lot, of seats in the house and occasionally in the Senate as well. If he loses the majority his agenda is dead, along with Project 2025.
Federalizing elections is part of Project 2025.
Executive order doesn't negate the Constitution
Australia here. We have mail-in voting for people who can’t get to a voting station on the day. Hell even Russia has had some mail-in voting since 2020. And if Trump lost in 2020, how come he won in 2016 and 2024? Crazy man.
Uh no. Definitely can tell Trump to fuck off on this EO.
Australian here, we have mail in voting, he’s lying again
Canadian here: we use mail in ballots for elections.
I’m all for getting rid of any voting machine that uses Starlink 😉
I hate to agree with the 🍊💩🤡, but I agree with him on eliminating voting computers. Votes should be counted locally and then bubbled up. Yes, takes work, but it's far harder to manipulate.
Ah, yes. The ultra secure method of local ballot counting. youtube.com/shorts/owSxq...
It's not enough on its own, and nobody ever claimed that. But of you want to solve that technically, one would need a totally open and radical approach, because the current one certainly doesn't cut it. www.theinteldrop.org/2025/06/12/s...
Inteldrop is a well-known Russian disinformation site. If you are getting your logic from there, you have been had.
Thanks for the headsup, going to look it up. I still won't trust computers to be not manipulated.
Oh you can bet he will flip flop on the machine once his handlers remind him that’s how he gained power again…with a last minute, back door programming “fix” that went unchecked!!!
And that only works if you have a large number of polling stations. In my country I have never had to wait more than 15 minutes to vote in person even with larger than expected turn outs.
Bubbled up??
Counting on a very local level, and then bubbled up the hierarchy, and at each step you can easily check the sums are correct and where the votes ended.
You’re joking, right?
Most countries in Europe vote like this for a lot of years, and usually get results in the night and the final count next day. And don‘t get me started on „the US has more votes“. The key to it is the organization of the primaty count, which usually happens at the local school or town house.
Assuming it’s an honest election. If it’s not it’s really easy to rig. This would be a bonanza for MAGA since they have already made known their intention to steal it.
All parties are present during counting, it‘s pretty hard to manipulate.
Clearly you haven’t been paying attention
What I hear is that they've figured out how to rig the scanners... Easy to flip the votes when you scan the ballot.
Absolutely. They also ran an unverified update before the election… There's the highest possible reward rigging an election, and any IT system can be hacked. www.planetcritical.com/p/cyber-secu...
A hand marked ballot is a durable record of voter intent. If the scanner changes results, that can be revealed in an audit. Now is the time to make sure your county runs thorough audits of every race.
We don't audit voting due to expense and Dems not wanting to look like trump. We just take their word for it, unfortunately.
Exactly. That needs to stop.
1000% agree! Fight to the bitter end! Do not give an inch!
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA bwahaha 🤣
Thats adorable. No the fuck they're not. States decide how to do elections. Period.
When the $&@“ will this end!?!?
Vlad told him to do it so he has to do it to make sure he gets 5 stars on his next performance review
FFS other countries seem to manage! When will elected officials stand up to him, properly? Instead of weak words. Bring in the young guns! AOC, Crockett, Kamala. Just get the fecking job done 😡
StAtEs RiGhTs
All this because Putin told him that mail in voting can be rigged. news.meaww.com/trump-claims...
Trump said Putin said that. Might be true, might not.
Good point
what does he even fucking want? you cant count and report out 170 million paper ballots on Election Day. Its impossible.
He'll say that means he just gets to stay in office or that he gets to choose the winner. 🤬🤬🤬
I guess Vlad said he couldn’t steal mail in votes.
Australia 🦘🇦🇺 not to be confused by a lot in the USA with Austria🇦🇹 have optional postal voting .
Fuck him and all his enablers. EO’s are not legally binding, wish the media would report that fact. See the clown in court over mail in ballots. Many countries and US states, have safe and secure elections, some with only mail in ballots.
The moment he puts pen to paper, he will be committing an impeachable offense. THIS is more important than Epstein.
What an idiot. His Handler-Putin- told him mail-in voting should be stopped and because he “has no reason to believe Putin would lie,” here we are with this nonsense.
Next he will require 10 yr old boys and girls to register with Ghislaine Maxwell.
None of that is true, and he can’t do that. Old man yells at clouds.
Because he doesn’t want the machines investigated for being rigged by Elon And he wants to put people in place that will throw away the Democratic votes Which likely happened in the seven swing states last election
What happened to STATES RIGHTS? The cry of the Grand Oligarch party that we've been hearing for the last decade and a half. The same cry that was heard from the southern states BEFORE the Civil WAR! MAGA doesn't seem to GRASP THAT part of the switch of the DIXIECRATS to the GOP!
😶 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_...
Who cares about his EO’s? That’s the question. They aren’t law. Congress needs to pass any of the EO’s to bring them into the actual law. Every one of these should be removed by Congress.
This is an extremely unwell person who belongs in a padded cell.
He’ll do it too. Elections will neither be free nor fair for at least a generation. While Americans do nothing but hope he dies.
🎯
Release the Epstein files!!!!
Putin told him he lost the 2020 election because of mail-in ballots. And Putin must know what he is talking about because he runs perfect elections where he always wins.
He is a sick looser and a pedophile
Does he have that power?
I’m waiting for the Newsom come back in 3..2..1.
He probably doesn’t remember hanging chads.
Unenforceable garbage.
Little does trump know, we the people don't have to do an effin thing trump says. We follow our constitution!
BS top to bottom. He just wants to get rid of any aspect of elections that he can't control.
Obviously ..
Bullshit! He will have to go through the houses to get any changes or approval. Executive orders are not law. More NAZI bullshit from President Pedo. Release the Epstein files.
🤜Fuck🗽trump🤛
Here’s the sad thing, he has control over the Supreme Court to carry it out. If this is allowed, the country is totally finished.
I disagree. The Constitution lays out elections - giving power to the states. He and SCOTUS can’t overule the Constitution, try as they may. And changing it could take longer than his term or life. This will fizzle like Dean Cain’s career.
Hope you’re right!
The Constitution is also clear that Trump is ineligible to hold public office because engaged in an insurrection. But the Supreme Court threw out Section 3 of the 14th Amendment last year when people were challenging Trump's eligibility to be on the ballot.
This United States Supreme Court does not give a shit about what the Constitution says. The Constitution also protects the right to privacy for all matters including medical procedures but yet they went ahead and overturned Roe v Wade which is protected by the Constitution.
The Constitution also does not give the president of the United States immunity for crimes committed while in office but yet the Supreme Court created presidential immunity out of whole cloth.
Executive order is not a law.
I love how Democrats cheat at levels never seen before in the history of the world and yet this shit for brains controls the White House, Supreme Court, and both houses of Congress. WTAF.
Putin’s puppet
Papa Putrid gave him this idea as more shit to throw on the wall to get us off the Epstein files.
In case anyone's in any doubt - another UK voter here. Thanks to postal voting I have not visited a polling station for years, and make my choice in the comfort of my own home.
He’s afraid of today’s meeting. He’s going to throw out anything he can.
Not even this craven SCOTUS will allow that.
Oh yes it would. This craven SCOTUS is afraid of Trump's supporters and afraid of Trump himself.
I think he won twice because of meddling with voting machine data. The time he lost was during covid when a lot of votes went by mail.. more republican than democrat btw.. so by scrapping voting machines and mailin votes, a democrat win seems a lot more likely
bsky.app/profile/vale...
And next he will buy the electoral college just to make sure. Stand up, USA— Unite, Speak, Assemble.
Can't wait too see Newsoms response
Thread ... bsky.app/profile/stev... #2026Elections #2026Midterms #2026MidtermElections
Yes, laws may protect our voting systems, but it's ultimately intimidation - plus a lot of confusion & chaos caused by FELON/Sexual Predator Trump's & his Republicans' misinformation - that will be employed to stop voters. bsky.app/profile/verm... #2026Elections #2026Midterms #2026MidtermElections
My red state had the lowest turnout since 1988 in 2024. They weren’t all in for him, they didn’t vote.
sadly, its only bluster if Congress actually asserts itself, which is really really rare this term
He can't manipulate mail in votes. That's the summary of his hate of them. Computers can be altered physical votes cannot. Simple as that. He cheated in 2024 with the help from Musk and his tech bros. I will forever believe that.
Interesting that he says that he wants to get rid of voting machines. I wonder what scam he is trying to run with that?
In the UK we still have paper ballots and it doesn't seem to benefit either party - not sure what his beef is here.
Yeah, we also have paper ballots in Denmark and if you do it correctly, then it is very hard to cheat with paper ballots. I would think he would love voting machines.. that his party is in control of.
He's extremely stupid as well as evil.
Maybe it is because Putin told him how he cheats with the elections in Russia, but all election observers are painfully aware of how corrupt the elections are in Russia.
Exactly 💯
He wants paper ballots. As if you can't cheat with paper ballots. He's so stupid & corrupt.
It is more difficult to cheat with paper ballots, if the election is conducted with certain checks and balances. I agree on the stupid and corrupt part 😁
I'm sure using paper ballots is also much easier in Denmark than in US. Total population of 6M vs. 330M and area of 16,000 sq mi vs 3,800,000 sq mi. "Checks & balances" aren't working well in the US right now. IMO, paper ballots would be easier to cheat, esp. with Trump.
He wants zero voting and rule by tyranny like NK. He's a mad king wannabe delusional fuq.
Ivanka has Chinese patents on voting machines. Don’t forget that.
My questions about that years ago were. Why would a citizen (trump child) obtain patents on voting machines, whats the use for, where are they??? 🤔🧐
1) He can order their replacement with 'simpler' machines that can be hacked. 2) Hand counted paper ballots are harder to tabulate quickly, and he intends to demand that all counting stop at midnight on election day.
Ah yes, I forgot about the counting deadline. So idiotic.
Put money in his daughter's pocket. The daughter he wants to fuck.
Have you ever heard such Bullshit in your life, and this guy wants to talk about being honest! That's like letting the fox guard the hen house. Anyone who would even consider believing that shit is mentally incompetent. He can wipe his ass with his executive orders!
I hate that bastard. I mean, he's just the very worst person currently breathing American air. I can't wait for him to eat dirt. He can't live forever.
📌
“We’re gonna fix it so good, you never have to vote again.” -djt
When I heard this the first time, my hair stood on end!
Apart from the points others have raised, I do also wonder if he’s going to be paying to fly overseas military personnel and diplomatic staff back home to vote. Or perhaps as commander-in-chief he will vote on their behalf?
@electiontruthalliance.org too late. This is all for show.
Dang, I thought Gavin took care of that all caps problem 😆
Are we sure he also doesn’t have a brain worm. This ignorant orange piece of shit.
A bit of history....in 2020 Putrid sign a law allowing mail in and internet voting. The useful idiot in the White House apparently doesn't know he's being played. www.rferl.org/a/putin-sign...
He can fuck all the way off.
Um, there’s this pesky document called the Constitution. See you in court dickhead.
So Elon has told him he's not going to help him hack the machines this time?
His older, rural voters won’t like this.
Fuck this
Sounds to me like a small group of billionaires have bought themselves a president and a country with a very large economy.
Lock him up. #ElectionDenier
Trump the cheat, getting pushed by Elon, Thiel, and all those others WHO ARE TRYING TO STAY OUT OF JAILLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
Are these the same crooked voting machine where he supposedly won 2 elections in. How ridiculous! Will they be Ivanka's voting machines?
Hmmm. I thought states were in charge of elections.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣snort, breath🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣snort, breath🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣...pass out from laughing.
Even Putin says!
And Maxwell. She said she doesn't know anything about Trump molesting children with Epstein.... then got transferred to a minimum security prison camp where she needed a waiver from the Bureau of Prisons because that camp doesn't allow sexual predators...
And the world believes a convicted women sex trafficker.
She was transferred to Club Fed before she said she didn't know anything about Trump molesting children with Epstein.
She was transferred to Bryant Texas Women Prison Camp after the Deputy Secretary of the Justice Dept. and Trump's personal lawyer, same person, Todd Blanche went to talk to her. I'm sure it's just a coincidence......
Sorry America is not your shitty golf tournaments you don’t get to cheat to win, and that’s the only way you can win is by cheating! He is setting us up again, I think Kamala had the votes but we had to stay silent or look like him cry babying for 10 fucking years god maga you tolerate this?
Ok let's start heavy handed enforce in Florida, maybe at the Villages.
He is really grasping and clearly whoever is whispering in his ear has him convinced EOs are like a king’s edict and are law upon signature. Good luck with that.
US Constitution, Art. 2, Sec. 4, puts that power in Congress’ hands, not the President:
Sorry. Article 1, not Article. 2.
Unfortunately, the Nazis do not give a shit. The EO will be challenged, mostly struck down but the Nazi in the WH will not abide by the court orders.
Yep, and until then, it’s up to the states.
For him every accusation is an admission.
There has not been any substantial evidence to what he says about voting. Mail in ballots are safe and voting machines are accurate - proven by the fact that PAPER BALLOTS are always available to be manually counted after machine counted! More trump LIES!
He knows that.. We know that.. He knows we know that.. We know he knows that we know.. well you know how this dance goes..
He knows that there's no evidence to what he is saying about voting. He knows that mail-in ballots are safe and that voting machines are accurate. But he doesn't care. He wants to make sure that as few people as possible are able to vote that way he and his party can stay in power forever.
Ultra vires that one
Many countries, including Russia, have mail-in ballots. Trump doesn't realize Putin just said that to "butter his ego." What a clown. 🤡🤡
Seems that might not be ‘legal’ as they say.
Expected from a guy that's lead a lifetime misinformation campaign.
I still vote via the post/mail at every election here in the UK (local and general elections).
Are all these democrats debating on who the 2028 candidate should be starting to get it yet? No political movement goes this far into authoritarianism and then just goes "well that was fun, here's your country back." DO YOU GET IT NOW?!! The fuck, I'm sick of being told I'm overreacting.
Right!!!
Me too! I was given SO much shit in November, December and January about how I was overreacting. Well, fuck all of them, I was under-reacting. It is far worse than I was saying. So, we ALL need to get active!
💙💙💙💙
Ummm, when is he finally going to start signing his "LIES SOCIAL" posts with "President of the Universe"??? He certainly thinks he is...VERY SAD LITTLE MAN.
I vote by mail, even though I live right next-door to the precinct. I do it because it pisses the orange pedophile off.
No one gives a fuck what that orange pedophile says
Lol! Except states run their own elections.
He'll probably just say the federal government doesn't recognise the results.
And that doesn’t mean anything. Stop dooming and make plans to vote.
🎉🎉🎉🎉
No shit. Just get out and vote and fuck these people. If you dont vote. Don't bitch. Get your fucking id or whatever else you have to do like an adult and let's bury these mother fuckers once and for all.
Yeah, this is likely the end goal. It isn’t about what he can, or cannot do. It is about sowing doubt in the election results, because he will likely lose the House in the midterms. Little Mikey has handed over WAY too much power to the Executive, and Project 2025 can’t have that!
He is only effective mind washing a small percentage of his cult. All of my friends who voted for him think he is an idiot but was good for the border and economy and don't pay attention to his daily bullshit.
Trust me when I say that before the midterms he will have declared martial law and there will be no election. He’s testing the waters with city deployments of the military. He fishing for a city that will react violently. So far, no one is taking the bait. We have a long road ahead.
I've been saying this & everyone thinks I'm crazy. He can't let the midterms happen because the GOP will lose & Trump can't have that. He'll do anything to stay in power unchallenged. Eventually a Blue city will crack & a riot will start. God help us then.
💯
They don’t pay attention…to their detriment
It's the daily BS I fear. We all now know a person or folks that have stopped drinking the Kool aid. I have friends who can't stand him, but admit they voted for him in 2016 & 20. Next Presidential Election? I admittedly don't care if it's Repub.or Dem. as long as it's not MAGA/Project 2025.
If they still think that he is good for the economy, despite all of the current evidence stating otherwise, then they aren't that clued in. They may as well be in the cult too. Baby steps, I suppose.
They are in the cult.
They dont listen. I tell them all the time.
Breakthrough with one of mine, a family member. The only time we’ve spoken since 🍊 is when she sent me a text to tell me that she had a new grandchild. Then on Facebook under the Resistance group. She wrote that “He is an idiot.” I haven’t said anything she be a libertarian, but now not a mega.
To clarify, Vought/Project 2025 can’t have Mikey out of the House Speaker position. Miller and Vought are running the show over at the WH.
He'll cut Fed funds going to states that don't obey his upcoming EO on elections. States will sue. Judges will rule in favor of the state. Appeals courts will be split with some for states, some against. Goes to SCOTUS and ...🤷🏿♂️
He wants the red states to go along with it so Democrats can't win congressional elections there.
Washington DC runs the city too, until Trump said otherwise.
The #NaziTACO doesn't give a shit.
I thought he already signed an election EO and lots of it has already been overruled by the courts. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...
Yeah, no: States are not agents of the federal government; they have their own powers and authority as defined by the U.S. Constitution. The relationship is based on federalism, where both levels of government operate independently within their respective areas of authority.
His brain stopped developing in the 50s.
After mail-in ballots and voting machines have been eliminated, Trump will target paper ballots. They are obviously the ONLY OTHER WAY that the elections can be "rigged".
Of note, he told Fox News that Putin told him this on Friday, reaffirming his delusion that he actually won the 2020 election because the Dems cheated with mail in votes. So.. glad we are taking cues from a Russian dictator.
It’s a daily embarrassment
He has been all along!
His 2025 inauguration was illegal!
Couldn’t help going back to CAPS lock, could he?
bsky.app/profile/dave...
Maybe I’m wrong, but isn’t that a power of the Legislative branch, not him? The Constitution doesn’t give him that power, even with an EO. Only Congress could make that change. I know Putin told him to do it, but the Constitution prevents it. States would have to ignore the law to follow his EO.
Every Republican in Congress will of course now to Trump and accept his EO as the law of the land because they're all complicit traitors.
We use postal voting in the UK.
Can’t believe I’m going to write this, but I do agree on voting machines! Mail in ballots are paper ballots tracked and to my knowledge are not linked to any voter fraud. I live in a rural area and the state/county requires us to vote by mail or travel 60 miles to deposit the same ballot in a box!
Thanks your MAGA Neighbor
Another delusional example of his dementia
Dementia sounds great when it is evilness.
None of which is true.
Canada and the U.K. Offer mail-in ballots- Trump is lying to distract from his losing polls and the Epstein files
Now is the time to bolster secure election procedures in your local jurisdiction. Sign up to be a poll worker and get as much training as you can. Observe ballot counting. Attend board of elections meetings.
States' Rights, anyone?
Third person mode is skipping back in.
Yeah our far right hate postal (mail) votes too. Mostly because they’re fair and vital to so many voters who simply cannot attend in person. The process to get one in the UK is far more rigorous than getting an in-person vote, requiring ID and a signature. Plus you have to reapply regularly.
Joke’s on him. I did not pay attention to that matter.
Hahaha!
I've lived and voted in 7 states and never seen a hand counted paper ballot in my life. I've used fill in the bubble ballots, but they all went into an optical scanner by my own hand. Only remote rural polling places use hand counted paper ballots. Every urban voter had their vote reduced MORE!
I've lived most of my life in small, Democratic states - CT, NH, HI. Since each state gets 2 senators, your INDIVIDUAL influence in the senate = 2 / state's population. Influence is INVERSELY proportional to population. Bigger is weaker! A WY voter has 39,430,000 / 587,618 = 67.1 x a CA voter.
This weakens that even further!! The framers gave us a way to fix that in Article 4 Section III on division of states BUT VOTERS EXERCISED THAT RIGHT ONLY TWICE! To divide Virginia from Kentucky and again to create West Virginia. The More States Option corrects that AND gives Dems 2/3+ majority.
When discussion of this proposal started, #Putin did the math and saw HE LOSES! All his plans for 30 years go up in smoke over a long overlooked clause in the constitution. That's when he started panicking. More states! More senators! More electoral votes! Pass amendments! Dem Majority This Term!
Oh yeah!!! If Texas were to divide into states, with rational borders which CAN NEVER BE ALTERED BY FUTURE REDISTRICTING the new states would have a small Democratic MAJORITY. That's when Abbot went loco. Florida is not so clear cut, but will probably be 50/50 with neutral effect on votes.
Whatever state Houston landed in would be Blue AND CONTROL OFFSHORE OIL ACCESS! Just realized that. No wonder Texas GOP went mas loco.
Didn’t his boss, Putin, just tell him he needs to get rid of mail in ballots? Yes, today at the WH is going to be a shitshow. Oh, and release the damn Epstein files already.
He said the U.S. is the only country in the world using mail-in ballots. Unsurprisingly, that’s a lie. Canadian, here. We offer the option of mail-in ballots, as do many other countries. I trust the integrity of our elections. We’re a country right next door. Clearly, Trump hasn’t a clue.
UK has postal voting too.
Not only a lie, a very lazy one. (What else can we expect from DJT, who's willing to swallow whatever Putin tells him?)
I live in Oregon. All of our ballots are mail-in & we love it. California & Washington are similar w/ heavy usage. Easy to recount if necessary. Note that there isn't any infatuation with Trump on the West Coast, no appeal once you get beyond the mountains. Trump hates the high turn out & accuracy.
But, it must be true, because his best buddy Outin told
Yes and here in the UK postal votes, as we call them, are very much in place and allow many of us our legal right to vote if we happen to be away at the time of an election, are disabled, elderly, live/work overseas or are members of the armed forces posted abroad. They keep democracy fair.
Australia also has postal voting.
Putin says mail-in ballots are “rigged” in the U.S.? And Trump is using that b.s. to try to kill them (and voting machines)??? 💥 FACT: RUSSIA USES MAIL-IN BALLOTS. And mobile, and even online voting in some cases. The only thing truly rigged is Trump's low-IQ fucking brain.
Don’t confuse US people with facts! They are allergic to them! They break out in furious rages when told.
He was told by Vlad that the US is the only country in the world using mail-in ballots. And like everything's else Vlad tells him he falls for it unequivocably.
If it wasn't for mail in ballots, he would never have been in the White House.
What does that mean?
The GOP has had a massive absentee ballot harvesting operation for decades. They always were sending out absentee ballot request forms to voters until Trump came along and lost.
Collecting ballots is illegal in AZ, GA, NC, MI and PA.
It wasn't in GA until after 2020. You could take a ballot and drop it off for someone else.
The term "ballot harvesting" is a pejorative created by Rs. Brnovich vs DNC SCOTUS upheld banning nonrelative neighbors or friends delivering mail-in ballots. Rs are the ones who made it illegal.
Correct. And they are the ones that depended on that system for years to win elections.
Who is they? Collecting ballots was done by both parties. Rs got rid of it, claiming fraud. All it does is disenfranchise legitimate voters like Navajos who live far from a post office.
The GOP. Dems barely did any of it at least in Georgia. The GOP has won many an election by banking absentee ballots. Now here in NC absentee ballots are nearly impossible needing 2 signatures.
Cars are nearly impossible too, so we were already voter suppressed and before the 24 election, they shortened the window for absentee ballots. It was already jump through hoops to signatures or a notary. What about people who are homebound?
They could care less. They operate like Russia where only the "right people" can vote.
80% of voters vote by mail in AZ, and we've been voting by mail since 1991.
Then you’re very fortunate.
And untill 2020 they were happy as clams over it because it was mainly their voters doing it; it was a big factor in their holding a lock on the AZ legislature for 45 years... Funny how it wasn't 'corrupt' until the Democrats did it too...
Nothing. The individual states control their election laws and methods if voting.
I always use a mail-in vote, have done for decades. UK voter here.
As does England, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, France,and other countries.
He doesn't control states.
A clear indication they know they can’t win and the more they throw at the American people the worse they look and the more they lose..
The fact that they are doing mid decade redistricting in Texas on Trump's orders is proof that they know they can't win.
I know my voter registration can be known but who I vote for is private. I want the record to show I will vote blue all the way down the ticket! This is MY vote
What will scotus do?
Whatever the neon nazi wants, as usual.
He’s already lost multiple times over trying to control state elections. He has zero power to tell any state how to manage them. It’s just him blowing hot air again.
The constitution gave the authority over elections to the states.
As if the Nazis give a fuck.
The Constitution also says that Trump is ineligible to hold office. But yet he's holding public office right now thanks to the corrupt United States Supreme Court who also created presidential immunity out of whole cloth despite the fact that presidential immunity is not even in the Constitution.
This is the real issue...his immunity! SCOTUS gave him the green light to do whatever he wants. They are all complicit!
You are correct. They are complicit in the destruction of democracy.
I’m Canadian and we have mail in voting. I’ve used it a few times.
And it requires a lot of identification that are not required at polling stations.
Why does Ivanka hold a Chinese patent on voting machines?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenth_A...
My governor will go along with him, the only thing is we passed, they passed voter suppression again in 2024 by shortening the window for absentee ballot, which are our only paper ballots and you have to jump through hoops to vote. I don’t believe he won, voter suppression won the election $cheat.
Thank you! 🇺🇸
Violates the Tenth Amendment.
If there were any other SCOTUS other than this one, I would agree with you.
He has no control over state elections and an EO is not law.
His signature gets longer with every tweet. How long before he starts titling himself like medeival nobility? Donald J Trump. Duke of somesuch. Lord of the (stupid double jerkoff) dance. Master of the great racist hunt.
I live in the UK and vote by mail. So do my parents. Trump really is an idiot.
MSM missing the bigger picture: Putin did not « give Trump advice » last Friday on elections. Putin threatened him. The dictator of Russian is not a hand-holding, mentor kind of guy. People who do not do his bidding fall out of windows or are murdered in jail.
🎯
My, my ,my.
Putin planted this seed in their Alaska meeting further trying to destroy American democracy via his useful idiot in the White House
Trump was already interfering with state election officials, but I imagine Putin had some concrete suggestions.
"If Dems take the midterms, Trump will go to prison," Speaker Mike Johnson
What we need is paper ballots with a rep from both parties as witnesses for votes bc we all know Trump has cheated twice now in elections. This fucker needs to go ASAP!
AZ has been using mail in ballots since 1991. "90% of ballots in 2020 were cast by mail and around 75% of voters signed up to receive early ballots in 2022."
I use postal voting, here in 🇬🇧 so the 🍊 wazzock is lying, again.
