The president has been railing against voting by mail, often spreading misinformation, as states seek to expand its use amid the coronavirus pandemic.

President Donald Trump again railed against states expanding vote-by-mail on Thursday, this time making absurd claims that children raid mailboxes and grab the ballots.
Speaking at the White House signing of a new executive order on social media, the president once again went off on mail-in ballots, repeatedly claiming the process is rife with fraud and abuse even though there is no evidence of that.
When they send out, like in California, millions and millions of ballots to anybody in California thats breathing. Anybody thats breathing gets a ballot, Trump falsely claimed.
An executive order signed by Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom earlier this month requires the state to mail a ballot to every registered voter in California before the Nov. 3 election. As in other states seeking to expand mail-in voting for the 2020 election, the move came amid public health concerns over in-person voting further spreading the coronavirus.

Actually, it is Trump covertly telling his Trumphumpers what to do if there is vote by mail in their region.........
"send your kids out to loot mailboxes of the ballots" not the parent Trumphumpers, of course, but the kids because they are minors and can't be charged if caught..............

Then it's milk and cookies.
After, using crayons instead of a sharpie, the children mark the ballots to make Dora the Explorer the winner.
