Trump Declares ‘You Can Never Have Free & Fair Elections With Mail-In Ballots’

45th President Donald Trump slammed establishment Republican pundits and politicians who blame him for the Republican Party’s lackluster midterm performance in a post to Truth Social on Tuesday.

According to the former president, Democrats, RINOs, and the mainstream media fail to acknowledge that his midterm endorsees saw overwhelming success in November, noting that without his help, “the numbers would have been a disaster.”

“I was 232-22 in the MIDTERM ELECTIONS, and still have to listen to DEMS, RINOS, and the Fake News explain how poorly I did (Also, 98.6% in Republican Nomination Endorsements!),” President Trump wrote.

“Without my Endorsement of Republican Candidates, the numbers would have been a disaster. Same for 2018 and the CORRUPT ELECTION OF 2020, where almost everyone won because, and with the help of, ME – EXCEPT ME – and that’s because the Presidential Election was RIGGED & STOLEN!” he added.

In an earlier Truth Social post, the 45th President stressed that American election integrity will always be questionable so long as states continue to allow the widespread use of controversial and arguably fraud-prone mail-in ballots.

“REMEMBER, YOU CAN NEVER HAVE FAIR & FREE ELECTIONS WITH MAIL-IN BALLOTS – NEVER, NEVER, NEVER. WON’T AND CAN’T HAPPEN!!!” Trump wrote.

President Trump has recently been critical of Arizona’s most recent election, which saw serious election issues taking place at nearly half of all voting centers in the state’s largest county.

“Massive numbers of ‘BROKEN’ voting machines in Republican Districts on Election Day. Mechanics sent in to ‘FIX’ them made them worse. Kari had to be taken to a Democrat area, which was working perfectly, to vote. Her opponent ran the Election,” Trump wrote in a subsequent Truth Social post.

“This is yet another criminal voting operation – SO OBVIOUS. Kari Lake should be installed Governor of Arizona. This is almost as bad as the 2020 Presidential Election, which the Unselect Committee refuses to touch because they know it was Fraudulent!” he added.

“This is a MUST WATCH. Our Elections are Rigged. Mail-In Ballots are a total SCAM. How about all of those ‘BROKEN’ Republican Voting Machine? GET SMART REPUBLICANS, OR YOU WON’T HAVE A PARTY (OR COUNTRY) LEFT!” President Trump wrote .

So maybe the problem isn’t VBM.

Meant to type: "Over a million Republicans in Florida voted by mail-in ballot in 2022"

Silly me….I should have read your other posts before taking you seriously and responding to your ludicrous question.

Next time, just be honest - Trump’s bad, mail in ballots are good, no cheating happens, only citizens vote and all is well.

This forum is a game for you - very unproductive…..and changing zero minds.

The commentary on FR has turned into a joke, much like Twitter world.

what are the odds that those that have no interest in voting won’t sell their ballot

I don't know. Have any lawsuits presented evidence of ballots having been sold and falsified in sufficient numbers to sway an election result?

I guess you probably don’t want to know that Trump handed his mail-in ballot to a third party to be mailed, then.

“ Like a mailed check, that can’t be cashed until it is endorsed?

Or like a credit card, that can’t be used until you activate it from your home phone number?”

————————-

Not even close. Any bank transaction is recorded, audited and transparent. Plus, jail time guaranteed if anything is fraudulent. All money is balanced and monitored. The person writing the check sees the signature after, the person cashing the check can see the money in their account. Those cashing the check are required to show an ID.

They can say my vote was counted but I have no proof unless I see every vote counted and crunch the numbers myself. The entire system is faulty.

I live in Nevada. I never asked for a mail in ballot. It just showed up in my mailbox.

Over a million Republicans voted by mail-in ballot in 2022. Over a million Republicans voted early in Florida in 2022. There was a ‘Red Wave’ in only ONE state in 2022. Which one was it?

Republicans dominated Florida in the 2020 general election as well. Trump tweeted to Florida voters in August of that year: "Whether you call it Vote by Mail or Absentee Voting, in Florida the election system is Safe and Secure, Tried and True. Florida's Voting system has been cleaned up (we defeated Democrats attempts at change), so in Florida I encourage all to request a Ballot & Vote by Mail!"

Even more Republicans voted by mail-in ballot in 2020. Over a million and a half. And nearly two million voted early.

So there it is. When mail-in ballots are under careful Republican oversight they are safe and convenient and benefit the party in races. Think about it: if you have the power to eliminate mail-in ballots you have the power to fix, not eliminate, the mail-in ballot system. The 2020 election was in the middle of a pandemic and mail-in ballots benefitted Florida. Consider the likelihood of another future pandemic.

If truly significant, the problem of fraudulent ballots isn't with the ballot; it's with the people who commit fraud with ballots. Calls to eliminate mail-in ballots sound similar to gun grabber's arguments to me. Sorry, they do. If we reason that guns don't kill people by themselves and that gun-related deaths, regardless of number, committed by criminals do not warrant restricting the constitutional rights of the vast majority of us law abiding gun owners, then let's be consistent.

Donald Trump is certainly correct, as he is on most things. Mail in balloting is an open invitation to a myriad ways of cheating. Anybody with half a brain can describe at least ten ways to cheat under mail-in ballots. Voting needs to be in-person on a particular day, with government photo idea and a fingerprint. A bonded employee of the registrar of voters contacts people who are physically unable to come to the polls and visits them on election day with their ballot, checks their ID and their fingerprint, waits for them to fill it out, and takes it back to the polling place. This assures that somebody else in the household does not wind up taking the handicapped person’s ballot and filling it out as they please, instead of the intended voter, especially when the homebound voteris not mentally with it or unaware a ballot has arrived.

Even the French figured that out back in 1975.

"You Can Never Have Free & Fair Elections With Mail-In Ballots ... Or Dominion Voting Machines"

Fixed it for you, Mr. President.

“People often take work assignments away from home for months at a time” — the keyword there is HOME. People have a home. If you change domiciles, it isn’t that hard to go re-register to vote, get your sample ballot by mail, and go to your polling place. It doesn’t matter one bit how often you work in an office or work from home.

Related back to owning property, people who work away from their homes, have a right to vote there, and not at a temporary location. Before the passage of the Fourteenth Amendment, people couldn't change state citizenship as easily as today either. The problem with the mail in voting is that it is no longer limited, but has become universal by plan to be corrupted. We don't need excessive solutions that defy tradition, just a restoration of those traditional limitations.

Elderly shut-ins can be visited by mobile vote registrars for registration purposes or to collect a ballot. Or they can use the limited traditional and legitimate UNCOMMON absentee ballot. I used absentee ballots in probably 50% of the elections I voted in over a three decade span because of extensive business travel.

That's a very bad idea. In the cities, the only "mobile vote registrars" will be Dems. If controlled by the RINOs, they will fail to send people leaving the Dems operating unsupervised. We saw enough fraudulent voting from the senile in nursing homes in 2020 to know this is a problem.

The most mobile people are the homeless. Frankly, without a HOME, you shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
I did not pass any judgement of whether any of my ideas are actually doable. Some probably are, some not. But if we don’t put a strong stake in the ground, we’ll never get anywhere. It’s an old negotiating tactic to put in items that you know will be rejected by the other party and then you can wail and moan about giving them up.V


Well we have different purposes here. You want to vent. I am looking for meaningful, effective reforms that can and should be passed. Denying homeless people the right to vote isn't happening, but if a person is homeless, that person can't vote absentee from another state.

He’s right it’s why the democrats use them.
