U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin agrees with him that letting voters send in ballots by mail puts honest elections at risk.
“Vladimir Putin, smart guy, said you can’t have an honest election with mail-in voting,” Trump told Fox News Channel’s “Hannity” after a nearly three-hour meeting between the leaders in Alaska. “He said there’s not a country in the world that uses it now.”
Who the fuck cares what Putin thinks about anything?
Right? In a way, though, i do kinda care: if Putin says it is bad, it’s probably good.
What a fucking demented weakling.
Remember when USAians were terrified of the Russians.
Postal voting isn’t a secret ballot so there is concern wherever people aren’t entitled to a private residence of their own. However the accessibility and the presence of paper ballots for recounts (which reduces conflict and increases trust) is such a larger social insurance.
Its obvious why free countries embrace mail in ballots especially in a heavily rural country like the US.
We don’t give a fuck what Putin thinks. He’s the example of what not to do.
The US declared on Friday that they were now allied with Russia and the response from the media was that Trump appeared “weak”. We can’t even acknowledge reality.
More like puttin has some nice dirt on trump
Well then he can fuck off to Russia
Oh! Well, if Putler says it, I guess it’s right, then.
Trump is such a bitch.
My question is why the fuck would Trump and Putin be talking about elections during a negotiation for peace for a country being attacked who isn’t even present.
Because Trump can’t stay on one subject for more than about 30 seconds. He was probably rambling while Putin nodded along.
Why would Putin get a red carpet treatment from the US in the first place? Putin and Trump announced to the world they are now allies.
Two obituaries I can’t wait to read.
Kinda bummed nobody tried something. In a country with so many guns you think there would a single rebel in this death star of a country. Not even some rogue canadian.
I miss the days when politicians and presidents at least tried to hide their corruption and shady dealings.
Fucking traitor.
Oh, I’m sure that motherfucking PUTIN agrees with Taco on that. How can you scare and intimidate voters if they are able to safely vote from home?
tankiegrad.ml approves
Who gives an actual fuck about how Putin thinks the US ought to do things?
The US government obviously does.
Putin also thinks that it’s okay to jail your opponents in an election. I bet Trump doesn’t mind that idea either.
Just Trump. It’s always just Trump.
Trump and the usa clearly.
“He said there’s not a country in the world that uses it now.”
Yes, blindly listen to what Putin says and ignore all the countries that do have working mail in voting.
That map is wrong. Spain have postal voting for everyone. You do not need to meet any requirements.
Sweden has postal voting for everyone.
That’s… actually surprisingly few. I thought it would be more common.
Well I know that map is fucked showing Missouri as green…
There should probably be another cour on the scale for countries that don’t have voting at all, like black or gray or something.
in France, people abroad can vote online, otherwise you have to present yourself to vote, with paper, in transparent box, and you’re free to participate in the counting
I see at least one state on here that should be yellow. Where did they source their info from? (Edit: sorry I’m on mobile so digging into it would take a while. I can look from my computer later)
