Ballot harvesting DEPENDS on No-Excuse Vote By Mail and other fraudulent schemes that violate the integrity of the chain of custody of cast ballots. Ask yourself, why it is so important for the election supervisors to (allegedly) account for and protect every ballot in their possession, but it is somehow unimportant for them to account for and protect ANY ballot not in their possession? 

The U.S. Postal Service (USPS), whose members and union are affiliated with the EXTREME LEFTIST AFLCIO, is NOTORIOUS for losing mail, mishandling mail, misdelivering mail, destroying mail, opening mail, and other issues too long to list. Why would (or should) Americans trust the USPS - who we can't trust to send a ONE DOLLAR BILL through the mail - to handle Vote By Mail ballots with integrity and accountability?

It's not the people outside the system trying to manipulate the vote that worries me, it's the officials INSIDE the system that are able to guarantee an outcome through the use of fraudulent, mostly No Excuse Vote by Mail, ballots.

President Trump needs to send a shot across the bow.

But maybe he's the wrong guy to be asking. Maybe we should be demanding our conservative governors (Ron DeSantis) work to BAN No Excuse Vote By Mail in every state?
