Trump lashes out at swing states over vote-by-mail

President Donald Trump on lashed out at officials in two swing states, Michigan and Nevada, over their moves to make it easier for more voters to cast their ballots by mail ahead of the November election, highlighting his growing anger over mail-in voting changes that he contends will hurt his chances of reelection.
The President's harsh and often baseless criticism of vote-by-mail is significantly ratcheting up as more and more states loosen their vote-by-mail restrictions proactively or on court orders.

Only a loser is afraid of everyone voting.

I want you to do me a favor first, then I'll unfreeze your funds. Sounds familiar doesn't it ?

[ab]

So it's illegal for other people to do it, but when he does it it's legal. Got it.

[tbjorn]

Yep because saying you are going to withhold funding really makes me want to vote for you! NOT

[srayj]

We’ve been using mail-in ballots in Colorado for years and it just makes sense! There’s no logical reason to deny people the right to vote in this way, especially during a pandemic!

[spencerhaas]

"Must have a reason to request mail in ballot"...not like there is a pandemic or anything

[godswrath]

How about the reason being - it is their civil right to vote by mail!

I'm so tired of him. I'm an American living and working overseas, I have no other choice for voting. People been mailing in ballots for years, who is he to try to change things now.

[Kevin-lltb]

His time is running out. Like if you want him OUT.

[masercot]

Anything to avoid a paper count of votes, eh?

[Madmatt]

and im over here in california voting by mail for every election since 2007

[raymondlawton]

Obey me, or I will take your money. The same trick for everything, lmao.

[curtisbrown]

Please wake up America .... I'm begging you!

[powelllanguages]

The craziness will get more and more obvious as time passes.

[cilbow]

Voting by mail is the safest way we could do it this year. I’m all in. 👍

[batboy]

Electoral college, plurality voting, the Senate, gerrymandering, voter suppression, rejecting mal-in ballots, force loading judges, AND MORE...all to the advantage of the GOP.

“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” 
― Franklin D. Roosevelt

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
― Theodore Roosevelt

“We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.” 
― Abraham Lincoln

[Zmbtaahase]

Keeping people who are afraid of Covid-19 from voting by withholding funding is this constitutional?

[kennethmoore]

He don't want mail voteing, because Russia, can't help him...

I live in Nevada. I requested a mail-in ballot back in March because I was uncertain about how safe it would be in June for the primary. Today I dropped it off at the registrars office. I think it’s important to feel safe when voting. I felt safe today. Also, if anyone wants to vote in person in June they can absolutely do that.
