The computer voting is just as unsecure and not practiced at the federal level in ANY nation on earth except for maybe one or two poor, small, globally insignificant countries. Why then would it be so happily embraced in America? It truly boggles my mind. It seems clesr to me though that Trunp is on a mission to decrease and/or eliminate such concern in future elections. Americans surely support these needed changes. Biden had 80M votes in 2020 and more support from the black community than Obama. Does this compute on any logical measuring stick?

"He said: 'Your election was rigged because you have mail-in voting. ... It’s impossible to have mail-in voting and have honest elections,’” Trump said, adding that Putin told him "no country" has mail-in voting.
It's false that the United States is the only country with vote-by-mail. Other countries, such as Canada and the United Kingdom, also do. Russia has been heavily criticized, including by the U.S. government, for not having free and fair elections.
Trump then vowed Monday on his Truth Social platform to issue an executive order aimed at banning vote-by-mail.

Can Congress legislate on mail-in ballots in the elections? MS Copilot AI
What Congress Cannot Do:
- Congress cannot dictate mail-in ballot procedures for state or local elections unless those procedures conflict with federal law.
- The President cannot unilaterally ban mail-in voting—any nationwide change would require legislation passed by Congress.
- States retain broad authority to administer their own elections, including rules for absentee and mail-in voting.
- Congress cannot dictate mail-in ballot procedures for state or local elections unless those procedures conflict with federal law.

tRump votes by mail.‘Ahead of a critical meeting with Ukrainian leader Zelenskyy, Trump made it clear he has other things also on his mind. He said in a social media post Monday morning that he’ll be issuing an executive order to “help bring HONESTY to the 2026 Midterm Elections.”
Saying he will “lead a movement” to get rid of mail-in ballots and voting machines, Trump added in all-caps: “I, AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, WILL FIGHT LIKE HELL TO BRING HONESTY AND INTEGRITY BACK TO OUR ELECTIONS.”
When Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday, the two men agreed on the “dishonest” nature of using mail-in ballots, the U.S. president said. “He said there’s not a country in the world that uses it now,” Trump said Putin told him of the process. Trump recounted that conversation during an interview with Fox News’s Sean Hannity.’
Trump vows to change how elections are run. The US Constitution doesn't give him that power
Trump claimed the U.S. is the only country to use mail voting, when it's actually used by dozens, including Germany, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.www.wusa9.com
There is nothing ‘dishonest’ about voting by mail; Trump is lying, as usual.
Trump continues to demonstrate he’s an enemy of democracy and the right to vote.
And I think that really just says everything that needs to be said.

That's because you are a deluded fool. trump's goal is to create an atmosphere where the results of elections are not legitimate even though, over and over, it has been shown our elections are safe and secure.
Who is served by having the public question the legitimacy of elections that have always been extremely reliable? The loser. And a foreign adversary who wants to sow doubt about the legitimacy of Western democracies. I can't believe you folks are too stupid to see what is right in front of you.

I have a question. When Trump or anyone else is discussing "mail-in" ballots are they referring to ballots sent via U.S. Postal Service or just any vote that is not cast in a polling booth? Because we have mail-in ballots here in Washington State and while I guess you can put them in a regular mailbox, I've always just dropped them into one of the ballot collection boxes. Is he trying to get rid of that as well? Because I had never heard of our state having any issues with the boxes until the last election when someone or several people tried to torch the ballots by dropping fire into the box but apparently the inside of the box is treated to make it hard to ignite its content.Trump reignites his push to ban mail-in voting after meeting with Putin
In an interview with Fox News host Bret Baier on Friday, Trump relayed that "one of the most interesting things" Putin told him during the summit had to do with the unreliability of mail-in voting.
"He said: 'Your election was rigged because you have mail-in voting. ... It’s impossible to have mail-in voting and have honest elections,’” Trump said, adding that Putin told him "no country" has mail-in voting.
Trump reignites his push to ban mail-in voting after meeting with Putin
Trump said he and the Russian leader spoke last week about what they see as the problems with mail-in voting. Since then, Trump has pushed again for the U.S. to end the practice.www.nbcnews.com
Vlad, whispering sweet nothings in Don's ear, decided to play on trump's obsession with losing the 2020 election. Imagine how delighted Putin was when playing to Don's fragile ego resulted in this.

During his condemnation of mail in ballots he said he didn't think any other nation allowed it.
Key points
But hey, we are all used to trump getting his facts wrong. It's a given. More importantly, it was Putin who made the suggestion trump get rid of of mail-in ballots.
- According to the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, 34 countries or territories allow some form of mail-in voting (also known as postal voting).
- Of those 34, 12 countries allow all voters to vote by mail, including Canada, Germany, and South Korea.
Can you imagine a US prez being so susceptible to suggestion that he would say he was going to act on advice given by a dictator who doesn't allow free and fair elections in his country. Even though mail-in ballots have been proven to be safe and secure.
In simple terms, Putin put a thought in trump's head and trump is acting on it.
This is a moment when trump fans need to consider whether they think it is fine and dandy for Putin to Ser be indirectly forming election policy for this government.

Putin was just raising it with Trump to get some brownie points and poke.the Establishment. He didnt need to hear it from Putin, Americans have been questioning the 2020 election since Elecrion NIght of 2020. The only election more questioned was that of 2001. 80M votes and more black support than Obama? The drop off Harris experienced doesnt make.sense.

South Korea: socialists nipping at the heels of the government
Yep. Check.
Get rid of mail in voting.
Unfortunately, I don't to have to.
The truth is that you're living a mass delusion.
