That's part of the grift, they want it to be fought. That way they can rally the base about all the fraud. It's a win win situation for them.

>That's part of the grift, they want it to be fought. I gonna stop you right there. Stop thinking Trump is playing 5D interplanetory chess. He's not. He's mad that he lost in 2020 and has been blaming mail-in ballots for years. That's it. That's the only reason this EO exists. >That way they can rally the base about all the fraud. His base is too small to win him the midterms. Independents win midterms and he simply doesn't have enough independent support for this strategy to work. >It's a win win situation for them How exactly? From my perspective this is easily his most desperate move yet. Republicans are losing seats in his own backyard. He's getting more unpopular by the day. And Iran isn't going to end judt because he's bored. There's no immediate positive for him here.

The_Lost_Jedi Mar 31, 2026 +48

What's really funny about it is that mail-in voting has always been a pro-Republican thing, because the people that mostly vote by mail are Republicans. Democrats vote *early* but that's not the same thing. The catch is the ONE time that wasn't true was in 2020, because of Covid, where Democrats were far more likely to not want to vote in person while Republicans wanted to, to the point that Trump essentially banked his reelection strategy on it. And because he can't f****** get over it, his rotted brain is still fixated on that.

It gets more wild when you realize that the areas that will be the most impacted are rural areas and older people. Who are all statistically more likely to vote R. He can't get over 2020 to the point that he's screwing his own side to make mail in illegal

WhoPutATreeThere Mar 31, 2026 +4

Just wait, large Democratic districts will be only given 1 place to vote, leading to massive lines, while small Republican districts will have a much easier voting process. Realistically, this will get shot down and then he will use the fact that it was shot down to claim voter fraud.

4

The_Lost_Jedi Mar 31, 2026 +5

I mean that's how it is in some Red States pretty much, but that was already the case. This really isn't some genius move on his part - it's absolute *desperation.* He's flailing and throwing shit at the wall in hopes that something will stick. It's not an action from a position of strength, it's one of weakness.

5

WhoPutATreeThere Apr 1, 2026 +2

For sure. He’s definitely just throwing all the shit at the wall, hoping something will stick. Due to the SCOTUS ruling before he was elected, impeachment is the only way he can be held accountable for his actions. This makes a blue wave in the midterms an existential threat for him. What really concerns me is that if he claims voter fraud again, as he obviously will, how will the fact that he seemingly has complete control of the federal government change what he is able to do this go-around. I’ve been saying that the midterms will be our test on the health of the democracy for a long time now, and I’m not super hopeful. Also, as to “this is what red states already do”, I agree. The difference now is that if red states decide to follow this executive order, it will have an even bigger impact.

neenna68 Apr 1, 2026 +3

I livein florida and it is hard for me to vote, that's why I vote by mail. Rural area and my polling place is a ways from me. Where I used to live, it was a mile. I am more rural now, a lyft would cost me 25 or more before tip. One way. I am on disability, I can't afford that.

Yeah its funny they keep saying this, trumps admin is gasping for f****** air at every chance it gets. They are completely f****** stupid they are scrambling and mail-in-voting has always been an edge issue cause in actuality it helps them more than hurts them. Its very dumb and reads like complete violation of every part of the United States Postal service. I don't even think they can open letters.

Lomak_is_watching Mar 31, 2026 +3

That is Trump’s reason for the EO. But the sniveling people who actually conceived of this and wrote it and put it in his hand to sign are playing a strategy, and sadly, they’re good at it.

3

Due_Bluebird3562 Mar 31, 2026 +7

No they're not. If they were good at it Trump wouldn't be at like 35% approval rating and most of his agenda would have actual legislation. If anything his administration is probably the most incompetent in history. They're only getting by because Congress has forfeit most of their power.

Lol you don't need to be playing 5D chess. I said grift, it doesn't take much to be a grifter. It's a win win because nothing is lost by doing this from their perspective. If it survives it's a win, if it doesn't survive it's a distraction and a talking point. What does he have to lose by doing this?

-1

Due_Bluebird3562 Mar 31, 2026 +10

What does he have to lose by doing this? Well for one he basically just announced to all of us that the SAVE Act is dead. There is a clause in the EO that is basically a 1-to-1 copy of the SAVE Act. Two by doing this he potentially galvanizes an already locked-in Democratic base looking to take both the House AND Senate. Though you could argue Dems were already galvanized as is. Three he pisses off EVEN more independents. He's already extremely unpopular with them and this will only make him more unpopular. If he were smart he'd just take the L and wait for impeachment but that's simply not his style.

10

Zulmoka531 Mar 31, 2026 +7

He might be signaling that the SCOTUS isn’t going to side with him on mail in voting or birth right citizenship as well. Nonetheless, I love seeing him flail, but I am concerned about what other bullshit he’ll try and pull.

7

spottedbug Mar 31, 2026 +2

If the save act is dead it's dead, trying another way isn't changing that. You already said "he doesn't have enough independent support for this strategy to work." If that's the case this won't matter. If he were smart... But he's not. He will keep flailing like this because that's what want to be autocrats do when they're losing power. He's already screwed, he has nothing to lose. He gets to do this consequence free.

2

Akimbo_Zap_Guns Mar 31, 2026 +4

And also to sow confusion and doubt. If some portion of the public think that DHS will indeed be involved in determining which voters are eligible to vote by mail, it may discourage Latino voters from voting by mail, or from voting at all.

Yes we should just trust him when it comes to integrity of anything. Matter of fact, can you cite a single study or report that shows widespread voter fraud? Even better if you can somehow show these reports without also showing it has been conservatives who have consistently been caught committing voter fraud lately? Lick them boots baby

AquaMoonCoffee Mar 31, 2026 +12

It's definitely going to be challenged but I wouldn't bank on SCOTUS striking this order down. The order isn't actually attempting to get rid of mail in voting, it's to compromise it by tracking each envelope on the outside and matching the codes with an internal DHS/SSA "database" of "eligible citizens", which will basically allow the government to know, without opening a ballot, who is belongs to and how they presumably voted. The exterior of each envelope will *"bears a unique Intelligent Mail barcode, or successor USPS technology, that facilitates tracking"* the barcode will be matched to every citizens code in the DHS/SSA database of "eligible citizens". It is both likely that this database will leave off voters who they will not want votes from, but it is also likely that most people will receive ballots and your ballot will mysteriously disappear before being counted or otherwise become nullified if you don't typically vote R.

12

BigHungryFlamingo Mar 31, 2026 +31

>which will basically allow the government to know, without opening a ballot, who is belongs to and how they presumably voted. And that’s unconstitutional.

31

AquaMoonCoffee Mar 31, 2026 +3

Yes it definitely is unconstitutional, but it's not a flagrantly obvious (to a lot of citizens who don't necessary know election laws) as simply banning mail in voting outright which is why I think it's not necessarily going to be struck down by SCOTUS. It could end up that they do strike it down but I wouldn't bet on it

3

BigHungryFlamingo Mar 31, 2026 +12

It doesn’t matter how “flagrant” it is. Our votes are anonymous and that’s the sticking point.

12

AquaMoonCoffee Mar 31, 2026 +1

I'm not disagreeing with you on the actual legality of this, but plenty of illegal things have been upheld or at the very least have been purposefully left unruled on so that they can continue moving forward illegally.

BigHungryFlamingo Mar 31, 2026 +6

This one isn’t nearly as clear cut as the other shit they’ve gotten away with. That’s the difference.

6

AquaMoonCoffee Mar 31, 2026 +1

Yes but this needs to be challenged, I believe in a lower court, then afterwards it can move up to SCOTUS which altogether is a process that takes months to years. Midterms are in just 7 months. SCOTUS won't even be in session anymore in 3 months (June or July IIRC) and unless this is the very first issue they take up in October there may not even be enough time left on the calendar to challenge it before the election.

1

BigHungryFlamingo Mar 31, 2026 +4

Mostly true but this will likely get challenged in court next week. It’s no surprise this was coming. There’s also the very real fact that even Republicans in Congress aren’t onboard for this because it may end up just hurting their own chances even more.

4

AquaMoonCoffee Mar 31, 2026 +1

Yes I agree I just don't think this will make it's way up to SCOTUS and be ruled on within 90-ish days before they're out of session, and they don't return until about 30 days prior to the election happening so it's already an unbelievably close timeframe to even get a hypothetical ruling on it, by the time they get to it they will have already created this database and assigned barcodes to citizens. Unless I'm missing something and it can go directly to SCOTUS but as far as I know it needs a lower ruling first.

100%, because Palantir already has access to SAVE (not the SAVE Act but the DHS Program of the same name) which is what, amongst other things, will be used to determine the "eligible voters" under this EO.

Jtex1414 Mar 31, 2026 +3

States run their elections. This targets a federal agency, the usps. Theoretically he can force them to adhere to his EO. States use of a federal agency (usps) to handle the mail in ballots portion of their elections is looking like a risky bet.

True to the "rumors," he and his admin are going to do everything possible to topple the midterms and beyond. This includes significant and serious changes implemented quietly at the USPS (as of Dec 24, 2025 the US Postal Service will no longer postmark mail when it's posted and instead can delay processing by 2-3 days or more; as of Feb 2026, in a 5-4 ruling the Supreme Court decided that the USPS cannot be sued for lost, damaged, or ***intentionally undelivered mail***), which will additionally undermine the efficacy of mail-in voting. They sense the tide turning and just as they did with the last national election, they're not afraid to play dirty to achieve their ends.

He's absolutely flailing. Doomers will tell you this is strength, but it's not. It's absolute f****** desperation. He's throwing shit at the walls in desperate hopes something will stick.

Attorney generals in all states just ignore and keep it moving. EOs are not law.

Federal judges and Scotus will rule against this easily. But Trump is so dumb to not realize how much this will hurt the republican voting base too. More than Dems

Please consider the changes implemented at USPS and then proceed accordingly.

Trump is motivated at all times either by: 1) personal greed, 2) retribution, 3) the need to engage in performative displays of power, self-aggrandizement and/or cruelty. This is a dumb EO that has no chance of being enacted. It's yet another destructive performative act by a republican--it's all they can do. Some of their performative acts are tasteless and dumb such as branding things with Trump's name, other performative acts are destructive, such as their f***** for tormenting people they wish weren't here. This gesture will be struck down by the courts and when republicans lose control of Congress in November, Trump will bloviate about their loss was due to nonexistent fraud and bloviate about this stupid EO which was blocked.

It’s all performative scare tactics at this point. States run the elections. Just another day of this orange dipsh*t trying to ruin the country because he wants attention.

this executive order is illegal and should not be followed

States would receive updated mail voter lists at least 60 days before federal elections. So the federal government would make list of who they decide is eligible to vote in each state. Talk about making it easy for the federal government to steal a election.

Didn't Trump encourage his supporters to use mail-in voting during the 2024 presidential election?

Remember when Obama sign an EO and Republican saying it's tyranny and overreach of the use of EO. And they complain about the "sheer number" the EO from Obama, while in reality he actually issued fewer EOs than any president since the 1800s (averaging 35 per year). Meanwhile Trump, in 2025 alone (yup, in single year), signing more EO than Obama did in 8 years ? And Republican speak nothing of it. And many of Trump EO is downright illegal, and already being block by court (I don't even know how many were still in progress of court challenge).

It’s to muddy the waters come November. He will try to deduct those “illegal” votes as from the totals and claim republicans won when they actually lost.

>He will try to deduct those “illegal” votes as from the totals and claim republicans won when they actually los Well states count the votes and midterms aren't certified by the federal government. He can *try* whatever but at the end of the day it's pointless.

In Republican dominated Seminole County, FL, we have had mail-in voting for over 10 years. And, all but one of those elections, a Republican, including Donald Trump was elected.

Spell_Chicken Apr 1, 2026 +3

The guy who just voted by mail illegally wants to prevent everyone else from doing it legitimately.

J4jem Apr 1, 2026 +3

He’s attacking mail in voting because it leaves a paper trail that can be verified. They want everyone on machines that have been compromised.

So what does this do? It dovetails nicely with the the change in policy that the Postal Service no longer date stamp mail when it's received. So your ballot, that you mailed in time at the Post Office, is tossed out because "you didn't submit it in time". How is the Postal Service going to comply with this? Well your ballot might arrive late, or more likely, not at all. This is to effectively kill mail in voting. Your ballot will have to go through hand processing and human verification that your name is on a "list". Your ballot might not even make it by the voting agency grace period for late delivered mail. But wait - there's more! This dovetails nicely with the case in front of the Supreme Court that is likely to invalidate mail in ballots that don't arrive on (by?) election day. So there is no way that your ballot is arriving on time. Trump has thrown his sabots into the mill and administratively killed mail in voting. If there's anything Republicans hate - it's democracy.

CockBrother Mar 31, 2026 +1

In a tiny bit later than you. I posted on law earlier in response to a similar article but they have their administrative rules so... invisible. But yup. If we both see it... hopefully a judge isn't like, "well, I know all of the rest is going on but I have to view this in a vacuum as if I'm an idiot" like most do.

Maybe they should try B52 bombing raids on all voting centers if they don't want an election.

> “I don’t know how it can be challenged. They’ll probably challenge it. You may find a rogue judge,” Trump added. “A lot of rogue judges. Very bad, bad people. A lot of bad judges.” This is a president? Sounds like a child. No wonder maga relates to him.

That’s dumb. Texas passed ALEC written “exact match” legislation targeting women, had to stop enforcing it because it caught their voters, including somehow Abbott. Same with this. A lot of Trumpsters use mail in ballots, including military enlisted men that voted for Trump.

FoxyInTheSnow Mar 31, 2026 +2

Not sure what’s the fuss. He’s always said he’ll contest any election he doesn’t win… and now he can make it stick, because apparently everyone is terrified of an obese, literally dying, depraved sociopath with the iq of a poached turnip.

Literally one of the dumbest moves yet. No 7D chess. Some states only have mail in voting. No win. Just distraction and desperation. Fat f*** is treading water and those pudgy legs done’t have much kick left.

So much for anonymous absentee ballot voting??? "...require mail ballots to be sent in envelopes that meet newly created standards — including unique barcodes on each envelope." What's next? ICE looking over my shoulder when I vote in person?

The funny thing is that if he had the backing of congress and had involved them in his administration's policy decisions he could share the blame with them as well as working towards a solution He has been running the US like he ran his businesses , into insolvency and bankruptcy.In march Treasury department declared America insolvent with about 6 billion in assets and 45 billion in debt. GOP is scrambling to pay billion dollar.a day illegal war and Healthcare is what they want to cut to pay for it, socisl security will be out of money in 2033 or 34. No one thinks of the future only how much they can swindle today by stock market manipulation and grift.
