I can't fathom any reasonable person giving Trump the benefit of the doubt about anything election related in 2026.
I'd say "think harder" but uh, you can actually think LESS when the answer to why he wants to stop mail-in voting is this obvious.
Not giving Trump any benefit it's about someone (even a bad person) using the options they have available. People here love saying gotcha but in this instance it's illogical.
He has no medical issues preventing him from voting and the president of the United States makes their own schedule.
He's voting by mail because it's more convenient.
Yes, exactly. He wants that option banned, but for now it exists and he uses it. Do you want the option to exist for everyone else but not for him? It will be different if he gets it banned but then circumvents the ban somehow.
There's no helping you if you don't see the hypocrisy in actively doing the thing you're trying to get banned.
