McCarthy told Trump trashing mail-in voting will hurt Republicans
Source: TheHill
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) reportedly said he told President Trump his criticism of mail-in voting will hurt Republicans in the upcoming election.
"I tried to show him ... you know who is most afraid of COVID? Seniors. And if they're not going to go vote, period, we're screwed," McCarthy told an Axios reporter, according to a report published Sunday.
The top House Republican told the outlet he spent hours warning Trump that his preoccupation with slamming mail-in voting will hurt Trumps own re-election as well as Republicans running for Congress.
We could lose based on that," McCarthy told Axios.

(397 posts)Inadvertently tells us that trashing the USPS is a policy to interfere with the voting process. The nonsense claimed that it was about progress or economy is well and truly debunked. Perhaps Congress should call McCarthy and question him on what went on. He can deny it and perjury himself, or refuse to testify and let us interpret that as we may.
Either way, McCarthy has messed up

(21,858 posts)the mail in urban areas, via the 'sorting' machines that they are talking about. Thus (I have to laugh how idiotic these morons are for not thinking this out) the republican rural area's mail gets slowed down/misplaced along w/ the other mail that the republican morons under trump wanted to delay/misplace/steal.
And these people want to stay in office longer? Their incompetence is staggering. Their desire to pad their paychecks or steal our taxpayer money is unlimited, the most corrupt administration ever, and thus, we must go after these thieves relentlessly, and w/o mercy. Their criminal enterprise(s) must be found and dug out, their crimes charged, convicted, and sentenced.
They sure didn't have mercy when they delayed someone medications for political reasons.

I know they're slow so I'll use the bold face and quote block to emphasize them for the hard of thinking.
1) Nobody tells the Crockwork Orange what to do.
2) Everything Old Yeller touches goes to shit.
There, those are the rules of living in this monstrosity of hate they have created not only for us (I feel so owned. ), but, for themselves. I hope it was worth it for 5 seconds of "Showing Hillary" in 2016.
These rules are simple and they have served me well for the last 3.8 years.
