Summary

Donald Trump announced plans to reform U.S. elections, including mandating paper ballots, same-day voting, voter ID, and proof of citizenship, while eliminating mail-in voting.

Trump criticized California’s ban on requiring voter ID, calling for a nationwide overhaul. Though mail-in and early voting surged during the pandemic, Trump has long opposed these methods, claiming fraud, despite evidence showing fraud rates are extremely low.

Critics argue his proposals could disproportionately affect rural, disabled, and nonwhite voters, potentially disenfranchising key Democratic-leaning groups.

The reforms would mark significant shifts in U.S. election policies.

    It’s partly because Democrats often tend towards being honest and good people that actually care about good governance.

    The qons don’t and they can just hold things hostage - they basically grab all kinds of things (like balancing budgets) and hold a gun to its head, knowing their dumbass supporters are too stupid to realize that government does do good things - too many of the idiots in the base buy into a whole lot of Libertarian-style anarchy when it comes to “limited government”.
