    Voting twice is a felony! But that wouldn't stop Trump from calling his followers to commit a crime. He sees it as a "perfect strategy". If they don't get caught, he gets more votes. If they do get caught... they're the ones going to jail. Not him.

    And he knows that the kind of voters who would actually do that are in his ranks. So why not!

    What a weasel!

    How can anybody vote for somebody with no morals, and no concern whatsoever for anybody else but himself? He considers even his own supporters as nothing but "tools".

    "Talkingpointsmemo" Do you expect such a source to be taken seriously?

    Are you denying that he said this? What is your point?

    No point? That's what I thought!

    What source is "trustworthy" for you? Only QAnon?

    Come on! This is so lame! That’s not what he said. Even if you dissect it word-for-word, that’s not what he said. He was pointing out a potential risk of fraud, using the details as an example.

    We don't have to use actual article titles anymore?

    "So let them send it in and let them go vote,"

    Sounds pretty clear to me.

    Your research has failed you again. Or bias.

    Yeah, as in “let them go do it. Let’s see how that turns out.”

    It’s a common turn of phrase. Listen to his tone.

    I agree, it’s poor politics, but that’s Trump.

    Exactly!

    Trump has nothing to lose. The ones who will be going to prison are the voters. Trump only receives the benefits. If it turns out they don't get caught, their votes count twice, he gets two votes. If it turns out they don't get caught, they're the ones going to prison.

    That's exactly right. That's Trump. A sleazebag who would through his own supporters under the bus if it serves his purposes.

    And I can't believe that so many people would fall for it. They won't listen to his tones... they'll just take it as a standing order by their "beloved leader"

    Yeah, but you’re taking it too seriously. I get your point, but at the same time, it’s like, “Come on, man!”

    Joe says the Chinese can help him win the election. Left's response...."He was just joking". Now they suddenly no longer have a sense of humor.

    This thread and OP is 100% disingenuous. Trump NEVER said to break the law.

    I am taking the President of the United States calling his supporters to commit voter fraud that could land them in jail too seriously?

    You think so?

    Oh God! We need at least twelve!

    Hey guys! Hop to it! We're falling behind in the quota!

    Now... seriously, is saying that there are too many threads for your liking about the President of the United States bamboozling his loyalists into committing voter fraud that will likely land most of those who do in prison... the best comment you can make?

    Yeah... I know. I guess the answer to that is obvious.

    Uhmmm... yes, he did!

    Trump: "So let them send it in and let them go vote... And that's what they should do."​

    Trump: "On your ballots, if you get the unsolicited ballots, send it in and then go make sure it counted, and then if it doesn’t tabulate, you vote. You just vote. And then if they tabulate it very late, which they shouldn’t be doing, they’ll see you voted and so it won’t count. So, send it in early, and then go and vote. And if it’s not tabulated, you vote, and the vote is gonna count"​

    Read it about 10 more times til you get it. Then you need to re-think your research skills.

    You must be confusing us with Democrats....they are so devoted to the cause that they come back from the dead just to cast their vote.

    It sounds like a good idea. He specifically said if your vote isn't tabulated, vote in person. Tha makes sense. We want all votes to count.

    He is doing everything and anything within his power to cast doubt on the result of the election, so that on the chance he loses he can claim it was rigged against him. He is a complete and total scumbag.

    You wish I would confuse you with Democrats. But the difference is abysmal. When Democrats make an accusation, they back it up with references. You just... make wild unsubstantiated accusations... But keep trying. Maybe one day you'll raise to the level in which somebody might confuse you with a Democrat. In the far far future, of course.
