Whether you like it or not, President Trump has never been one to hold back his opinion. He is honest, loquacious, and outspoken. One might say that these are the traits of a great leader. However, it may lead others to dislike him and act out much like an ungovernable teenager sneaking out after dark to take part in some lamentable behavior.
Such is the case this week when Nevada legislature passed a bill to send absentee ballots to its voters. President Trump took to Twitter to let them know exactly what he thought about the conniving action.
President Trump on Monday morning threatened legal action over a bill passed by the Nevada legislature to send mail-in ballots to all voters ahead of the Nov. 3 presidential election.
The legislature on Sunday pushed through the bill despite objections from Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske, the only statewide Republican elected official, on a party-line vote. It would give Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak the power to command the secretary of state to adjust election procedures during a state of emergency.
The bill also expands who can turn in ballots, a provision many Republicans in the state said could open the door for ballot harvesting.
“In an illegal late night coup, Nevada’s clubhouse Governor made it impossible for Republicans to win the state,” Trump said in a tweet Monday. “Post Office could never handle the Traffic of Mail-In Votes without preparation. Using Covid to steal the state. See you in Court!”
President Trump has made it known that the method of mail-in voting is unreliable and subject to fraud. That could possibly be the reason for Democrats pushing the matter, they know it’s the only chance they have at winning.
