Campaign toils to convince Republicans to vote early, crucial to winning the election, while ensuring they don’t annoy Trump
Donald Trump’s attacks on mail-in voting have increasingly caused heartburn for the Trump 2024 campaign as they attempt to undo the self-sabotage by ramping up operations in key battleground states encouraging Republicans to vote early and by mail ahead of the presidential election.
The former US president has continued his crusade in recent months: in December he called for the end of mail-in voting entirely, before claiming in an interview last month that “any time the mail is involved, you’re going to have cheating”.
Trump’s attacks are complicating efforts at the Trump campaign to convince Republicans to vote early, which advisers know is crucial to win the election given Democratic voters have no qualms about voting by mail or organizing ballot initiatives and have given their party a major advantage.
Just 28% of Republicans support allowing any voter to cast a ballot by mail, compared with 84% of Democrats, according to a study in February by the Pew Research Center. A large part of that thinking, sources close to Trump concede, has been driven by the former president’s criticism of early voting.
The guy who ordered the dismantling is still in charge of the post office. Louis Dejoy.
Sure, but he’s not taking his orders from Trump (hopefully…)
If you think he was before, there’s no reason to believe that he stopped. A person who would do those things does them in support of the person, not the office. Plus I haven’t seen any reason to believe that Biden has done a damn thing to change the USPS.
Post office suck because of Dejoy Biden done jack about it.
It SEEMS like Dejoy got in line when Biden got in office. He hasn’t been causing nearly as many problems as he did during the Trump administration and appears to be playing ball somewhat. I don’t think he should have the job, but I don’t see him as big of a problem as when Trump was giving him orders. Still a piece of shit though.
You’ll be thrilled to learn he’s raising first class stamp prices again, for the second time this year.
