Trump, citing no evidence, doubles down on 'illegal voting' claim before Election Day
NBC "News" ^ | November 5, 2018 | By Dartunorro Clark

Hours before Election Day, President Donald Trump on Monday continued to warn, without evidence, about the prospect of "illegal voting."

"All you've got to do is go around, take a look what's happened over the years and you'll see," Trump told reporters before departing from Joint Base Andrews for the first of three campaign rallies Monday. "There are a lot of people ... that try and get in illegally and actually vote illegally, so we just want to let them know that there will be prosecution at the highest level."

Trump has repeatedly, as a candidate and as president, said that voter fraud is a significant problem. However, experts have repeatedly concluded that voter fraud is extremely rare.

As he boarded Air Force One on Monday, Trump also sidestepped a question about an immigration ad his campaign released that has been widely jeered as racist.

"Well, a lot of things are offensive," Trump said. "Your questions are offensive a lot of times."

“No evidence” be damned.

The blind who simply refuse to see.

There is more evidence to support Trumps claim than there is evidence behind 95% of NBCs “news”.

“There is no man so blind as the willfully blind.”

“David Mamet had a famous saying, essentially: …‘in order for democrats, liberals, progressives et al to continue their illogical belief systems they have to pretend Not to know a lot of things’… By pretending ‘not to know’ there is no guilt, no actual connection to conscience. Denial of truth allows easier trespass.”

You can bring them all the evidence in the world, put it before them and they would still say it’s not evidence or not enough evidence or deny its relevance.

Gaslight the Masses.

***experts have repeatedly concluded that voter fraud is extremely rare***

NBC News is laughable! ...dangerous if anyone could take them seriously, but 'No', just laughable. I imagine they have closets full of experts.

Excuse me, but didn't California recently admit that several thousand illegals they gave driver license to "mistakenly" get put on the voter rolls? Yes, Trump does have the proof if he wants it.

Absolutely LOVE it when he fights back!

CA issues drivers licenses to foreign national's here illegally.

What's to stop any of them from voting in CA?

Or, from moving to another state and using their CA license to get a new drivers license, then registering to vote in the new state?
