    1. we are woke. we living in Animal Farm Utopia. Do as I say and not as I do. That is the Trump mantra. Liars and Thieves. is the game.

    2. Danielle Ramos LOL. We studied that book at school. I am 63yrs now. Hope Dear Danielle, people vote in droves, even if it means taking a day off work.

      Auckland. NZ

  1. Some part of the Military have been Voting Absentee since the American Revolution.
    Just a little Fun Fact for Clown Boy .

    1. @Charleen Chancellor Actually, the first state to go all vote by mail, Oregon, had an initiative in 1998. We, the Oregon voters, chose to vote by mail, it was not legislated.

    2. @Deborah Freedman I am aware of Oregon being the first state to have all vote by mail. Did forget it was a ballot initiative. I lived in Oregon for 35 years and really liked being able to vote by mail, so when I moved back to California 14 years ago I chose mail in ballot voting option and have always used it here also.

    1. Nope setting up the seeds of doubt that the elections are rigged and have his country boys march on state Capitols to begin another civil war

    2. @Kennie B “business” that’s the correct spelling of the word in your english language. Definitely taught to you in 3rd or 4th grade. I mean is this even for real??????????????????????

  2. He wants to use those chinese-made voting machines trademarked by Ivanka

    1. did you ever notice when people retire they always move from liberal states to Republican states because they can’t afford to live in Democratic states. As a native New Yorker I hate Yankees.They’re the biggest they are the biggest Nanny state wimps.

    2. @ihave35cents Sweetheart, you’re a crybaby troll, that’s the only thing you’ve managed to show us here. I’m no longer reading your drivel, you’re not saying anything.

  3. ……and “we” too don’t want to take chances with fraud – which is why there will be a new president elected in November.

    1. He will never leave that house bet on it. Even if he loses he will tell his white American brothers to liberate their states the elections were fixed.. civil war 2.0 will begin.

    2. @M OchunCuascut If Baby Trump refuses to leave after being voted out, then he’ll be killed by American patriots. Period.

    3. @Tessmage Tessera show me one person that has successfully stood up to the bully so far. Only one I can think of is cuomo and even he hasn’t spoken up like he should’ve… He wont leave we can close our eyes and pray for a miracle but I highly doubt it.

    4. @M OchunCuascut “When” he loses and he decides to overstay his term then the levers of power work in favor for removal. He no longer would have constitutional authority and lack the power for anyone to protect him. If he chooses not to leave by 1/20/21…and since he would no longer be immune from criminal prosecution, he could be arrested and charged with trespassing at the White House. He would be foolish to let it come to that since this would now be coupled with all of the other high crime charges awaiting him once out of office. He should have just stuck with real estate……much more under the radar to hide his crimes.

    5. @Bob Fuhrwerk lmaooo levers of power are you serious he has broken at least 3 levers in less then a year. The Senate is in pocket with him. He is firing IGs to cover up all illegal activity are you living in a bubble or something this man has an insatiable appetite for power you think he won’t cause a civil war before relinquishing that power??? Anyways folks I’m prepared as best any single individual could be hopefully you all do the same. Be safe Bob..

  4. Loosely translated, ahem, “I am threatened by voter access and want to inconvenience voters and reduce turnout. I’ll claim it enables voter fraud…. its a plot by Trump enemies… yea, thats the ticket… my undereducated supporters cant read a voter mail in form much less fill one out but they will stand in line for a week to put their x on the ballot.”

    1. @Kennie B lol…. Hawaii is an American state, I was born in the US. I registered to vote, did you?
      I dont understand why you guys think that insulting us, your fellow citizens, is going to get the Fraud in Chief re-elected…

  5. The citizens of Michigan did a ballot measure to do vote by mail, which is something Trump didn’t mension. He can’t reverse a state citizen decision.

    1. Don’t you remember this coming straight out of the horse’s mouth: “I am the President. I can do whatever I want. So there.”

    2. @supernumery Trump does not equal “America.” He’s a mentally ill, rogue president — hated by the majority of Americans.

    3. @mike briganti Exactly. Liberals lie by omission. These ballot measures were likley passed by liberal pro-china traitors.

    4. @supernumery Why? Blacks can’t walk to a polling station? Are you an imbecile liberal or a ccp agent.

  6. Oh. Just like the last election was a fraud? Come on people (not democrats we are already awake) wake up!!!

  7. “People stand in line and vote then they go back to their cars and put on another shirt and go vote again”. This was Trump last year.on election fraud re in-person voting. So now the lesson here according to Trump is that there is no safe election, no election immune from the possibility of fraud and corruption. The real message is that he will question and doubt and condemn any election result that doesn’t bring him a favorable outcome. Even when he won the wonky Electoral College in ’16 he railed against the “millions of illegal votes” that gave Clinton a clear majority. There is a complete lack of evidence of in person voter fraud, Looking at whats best, its clear that the safest and easiest way is always the best way. In a pandemic that would be vote by mail. Period. One person at one address submitting who requests a Mail In Ballot. He/she signs ballot and sends it via US Mail. The ballot is then tabulated and cross checked by a rudimentary computer program to make sure there is no duplication. This is as close to foolproof as you can get. Sorry Donald, this is none argument that you can not win. The more you complain the shakier you look. Your argument has no merit, at all. You lose.

    1. Peter Jeffrey: it’s called projecting. any time you hear the gop rail against something, rest assured, it is a tactic they would use, bigly.

  8. He’s already setting it up to challenging his defeat in November in federal court. If anyone thinks that this guy is going to go quietly, they are deluded.

    1. Yep. His cunniness and sinister actions are coming out of him on a daily basis. We ain’t seen nothin yet!

    1. @jorge flores stupid obamagate is stupid bs only make up to extract people away from what he’s doing

  9. Stop asking him questions about his tweets. There is no way he will respond with anything remotely useful. Every time the press asks him a question, he’s treating it like a campaign rally.

  10. Of course, what he means is that mail-in voting diminished the chances for the criminal GOP syndicate to rig elections. Why not provide subtitles to that effect in video clips?

    1. Mail-in ballots would eliminate voter intimidation, rigged voting machines, low voter turnout, etc. This is what the dying Republican party fears most. Bunch of crooks.
