Florida Republicans doctored one of President Donald Trump’s tweets to remove a stigma against mail-in voting.
The president has been falsely claiming there’s a distinction between mail-in voting and absentee ballots, all while exaggerating the risks of fraud, and some Republicans fear he’s undermining one of their secrets to success in Florida, reported Politico.
It’s sad that the GOP’s strategy to win an election is to scare the living sh*t out of the base with deceptive lies and conspiracy theories,” said one Republican consultant. “It’s working for now, but it’s a bad long-term strategy that will hurt the party in the future. A simple Google search will tell you that ‘absentee’ and ‘mail-in ballots’ are the same exact thing.” read more at link.
