Pain kept me awake last night and as I was trying to find something to watch on the tube I cam across a Trump ad…..one of his idiot sons is asking for donations….”$5, $10 $25 whatever you can spare”…begging for donations….is the cash running short?

I know the campaigns are weeks away from the official start of the election….but they all need cash…..and a Trump son is begging for dollars.

I recall the days when Trump was an opponent of early voting and mail-in voting because according to him the ripe for fraud.

But was then….this is now….

It appears that Donald the Orange has flip-flopped on his original opposition to early voting….

“You know mail-in voting is largely corrupt,” Donald Trump told a rally last month. But the Republican presidential candidate can’t win without votes, and he’s thought better of that stance. His team has joined with the Republican National Committee to launch a campaign encouraging supporters to cast their ballots by mail for the November election or otherwise participate in early voting, the Hill reports. “You need to make a plan, register, and vote any way possible,” Trump says in a video kicking off the campaign.

The effort is called “Swamp the Vote,” and Trump says he needs a huge turnout to defeat Democrats. “The way to win is to swamp them, if we swamp them with votes they can’t cheat,” he said in a statement. Plans call for providing potential voters with information on how to vote in various ways under their state’s laws. States encouraged voting in ways other than standing in line at a polling place after the pandemic hit. Trump opposed that effort, saying, “I think a lot of people cheat with mail-in voting.” A Washington Post analysis of data from three states at the time found no evidence of widespread fraud.

A Pew poll earlier this year found majority support for early voting and mail-in voting. Democrats supported mail-in options much more than Republicans did, per the Hill. The chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee told the Post that his party needs to get its voters to cast ballots earlier and that he’s pleased by Trump’s change. “President Trump wants to win,” Sen. Steve Daines said. “And this is a winning strategy.”

Quite the turn around…if you recall (hahaha-sorry) the Trump organization sued Nevada back in 2020 over mail-in votes….

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit from President Trump’s reelection campaign challenging Nevada’s new vote-by-mail law, saying the campaign failed to show how it could be harmed by the law. The campaign, which has filed lawsuits in several states over voting rules, had asked the judge to block the law, which calls for mail-in ballots to automatically be sent to all active Nevada voters.

And now he has a new found desire for these votes.

Is this a good sign that his campaign is struggling to find enough votes?

What else will he flip-flop on as the election draws near?

Any thoughts?
