    “WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump declared Thursday that he opposes additional funding for the U.S. Postal Service, acknowledging that his position would starve the agency of money Democrats say it needs to process an anticipated surge in mail-in ballots during the coronavirus pandemic.”

    “Trump also claimed anew — falsely — that Democrats were pushing for universal mail-in voting and predicted without providing evidence that mail-in voting would lead to massive voter fraud in the November election. Polls indicate Trump is in for a tough reelection fight against Democrat Joe Biden.“

    “Trump said on “Mornings with Maria,” “They need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots.” He added, “If they don’t get those two items, that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting because they’re not equipped to have it.”

    “Biden, responding during a meeting in Delaware on the coronavirus, told reporters the comments were, “Pure Trump. He doesn’t want an election.”

    So let me see if I have this correct, Trump says mail in voting is ripe for corruption, well except in Florida and North Carolina where he encourages it, yet he doesn’t want to allocate funds to secure it, correct?

    Biden is correct, Trump doesn’t want an election, along with the other institutions and traditions he has destroyed it appears our democratic election system which has served us well for over two centuries is next, and all for his own ambitions
