Trump to Sign Executive Order Outlawing Mail-in Ballots
« on: August 18, 2025, 11:34:11 am »
John Nolte 18 Aug 2025

President Trump released a Truth Social statement Monday morning announcing he will sign an executive order outlawing mail-in ballots nationwide.

He’s also targeting the easily-manipulated voting machines that leave no paper trail to back them up.

“I am going to lead a movement to get rid of MAIL-IN BALLOTS, and also, while we’re at it, Highly ‘Inaccurate,’ Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES,” wrote the president.

He added that these machines “cost Ten Times more than accurate and sophisticated Watermark Paper, which is faster, and leaves NO DOUBT, at the end of the evening, as to who WON, and who LOST, the Election.”

“We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting. All others gave it up because of the MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD ENCOUNTERED,” he continued. “WE WILL BEGIN THIS EFFORT, WHICH WILL BE STRONGLY OPPOSED BY THE DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THEY CHEAT AT LEVELS NEVER SEEN BEFORE, by signing an EXECUTIVE ORDER to help bring HONESTY to the 2026 Midterm Elections.”

At first, it sounds ridiculous. The Constitution clearly gives each state the right to manage its own elections, so Trump’s executive order can only be worth the paper it’s printed on, correct?

Not exactly.

Do it already.  Or is this distraction and redirection from today's meeting where you will hand Putin victory in Ukraine?

All good as long as they don’t disenfranchise the elderly and disabled that are unable to make it to a voting booth.

Just wondering how will they handle ballots for service members overseas.

I'm not sure how this will be interpreted, but the traditional Absentee Ballot for the sick, for those deployed, or otherwise unable to vote in person on that day, may be treated differently.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Next Up on the Trump Agenda: Let's Get Rid of Mail-in Ballots and Voting Machines
By Becky Noble  | 2:36 PM on August 18, 2025

It's a privilege few around the world enjoy: fair and honest elections where the people decide who will lead their country. For almost 250 years, Americans have fought and died to ensure that right. Granted, no election is completely free from fraud, and in recent years, certain events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have made it easier for those who want to cheat to do so. The results of past elections will continue to be debated, which should be enough reason to ensure that there is no question about the results of future elections.
 
The integrity of those future elections is next on the Trump agenda.

On Monday, President Donald Trump announced he would be signing an executive order that would prohibit mail-in ballots and voting machines in the run-up to the 2026 midterm elections. He wrote on Truth Social:

"I am going to lead a movement to get rid of MAIL-IN BALLOTS, and also, while we’re at it, Highly 'Inaccurate,' Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES, which cost Ten Times more than accurate and sophisticated Watermark Paper, which is faster, and leaves NO DOUBT, at the end of the evening, as to who WON, and who LOST, the Election."

The president added that, "We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting." He also predicted what we already know: that the fight against ensuring election integrity will come from Democrats. He said the effort would be "strongly opposed by the Democrats because they cheat at levels never seen before."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

So did the fight to free the slaves.

Perhaps it's time for this to be added to The Constitution:
===============
This Constitution prescribes that only citizens may vote in all elections conducted within the United States. This includes elections for federal offices of The United States, elections for State offices in the Several States, and all municipal and local elections conducted within the borders of The United States.

Elections will be conducted only on Election Day as prescribed by this Constitution.

All ballots in all elections will be paper ballots cast by individual voters at their respective polling locations. Electronic means may be used to tabulate vote counts at the local level.

Provisional ballots of any kind are prohibited by this Constitution.

Ranked Choice Voting of any kind is prohibited by this Constitution.

On Election Day votes will be tabulated immediately after the polls close. Tabulation and counting of votes will proceed continuously until a final tally is reached.

There shall be a demand right of registered voters to witness the tabulation and counting of votes. Any attempt to deny such right will be deemed unconstitutional. This right shall not be modified by any Court of the United States. The Several States may however limit the total number of election observers as is practicable for reasons of safety.

An election shall not be considered to be won unless the winning candidate receives a majority of the votes cast. If no candidate receives a majority, a runoff election must be held within 35 days to determine the winner. This shall not apply to the elections for President and Vice President, which are to be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Electoral College, as enumerated in this Constitution.

The use of the United States Mail shall not be permitted for the collection of ballots, with the exception of absentee ballots.

There shall be no use of absentee ballots without the presentation of individual need, subject to strict scrutiny by the registrar of voters.

Absentee ballots must be received by the close of voting on Election Day. Any ballots received via mail after the polls close will be immediately destroyed and will not be entered into the voting tabulation.

All citizens of the United States will be required to produce identification before voting.

All citizens of the United States who desire to vote will be required to register at least six months in advance of election day, unless they have previously done so. All citizens requesting registration will be properly vetted by the registrar of voters.

No person will be registered to vote unless that person has attained his or her twenty-first birthday.

The Twenty-Sixth Amendment to this Constitution is repealed in its entirety.
