Fox's Chris Wallace Asks, What If Trump "Really Has A Point Here" Over Mail-In Voter Fraud?

Fox News anchor Chris Wallace - no fan of Donald Trump, asked a panel of guests about the possibility that the president "may have a point" about widespread fraud due to mail-in voting.

"I know the Democrats say that President Trump is trying to block mail-in voting and trying to block billions of dollars more for the postal service in order to suppress voting in this election, but hear me out for a minute, isn’t it possible that the president really has a point here?" Wallace asked former DNC communications director Mo Elleithee during "Fox News Sunday," per theDaily Caller.

"As I mentioned earlier, there were 33 million either absentee or mail-in ballots in 2016. If we have to double that or triple that, isn’t there a pretty good chance that we will have a mess at the least, and yes, possibly fraud?" Wallace added.

After appearing stunned for a split second, Elleithee responded: "Look, I think it is certainly likely that there would be challenges if the president continues to kneecap the Postal Service," adding that states "have robust mail-in voting operations."

If Trump controlled the deep state, then he could easily sabotage the election, but he does not. The commies do and they will make a mess of this election. Keep your powder dry!

Funny how everybody knows that mail in voting will be rampant with fraud, but the dumbocrats won't admit it. But everyone knows.

Please explain the chain of custody for a mail in ballot.

Please know the difference between a mail-in ballot and an absentee ballot before joining a conversation about them.

There is a chain of custody for absentee ballots. You need to be eligible to vote and then request one first and then your ability to vote in person is removed for that election. The signatures need to match on the outside of the ballot.

Please explain how those key things are covered with the dumbocrat scheme for mail in ballots.

Nancy Pelosi once again wants to bail out the disfunctional Post Office by allocating 1 Billion dollars for the Post Office. This has been on her wish list. She wants this part of the COVID-19 stimulus. Typical Democrats - keep throwing money at a broken system.
Post office needs revamped - been losing money for years. P. S. Social security checks are electronically deposited. You must request it be mailed to you. Democrats lie about this all the time

Thank you Anon 11:59 AM.

But for the record I will provide the Reader's Digest version for those who might be unsure.

Absentee Ballot:
This is a ballot that is requested from the Board of Elections by the voter. It is expected to be mailed in and there is a record of the request having been made by the BoE (please don't confuse with that other BoE that indoctrinates children). The voter fills out the ballot and mails it back in or they drop it off at a polling location.

Mail-In Ballot:
This is where the government simply mass-mails ballots to all registered voters who are on the current voting roster. They go to the last known address of the registered voter. The voter roster is supposed to be updated on a regular basis by the State in order to remove stale records due to moving, death, etc. The mass-mailings can be intercepted by nefarious individuals and forged to make it look like the voter intended to vote in a particular way. Now we all know that since the Republican Party are the ones who are against the mass-mail voting scheme, the issue is clearly with the Democrat Party. I won't say anything more on this issue. Instead, I'll leave it up to the reader to make their own inference.

As far as the military votes go. These Absentee Ballots are sent to an APO/FPO for the soldier, sailor, airman or marine to retrieve. When their votes are put back into the mail at their respective APO/FPO, they are handled by the military until the ballots are received at the closest USPS hub where the USPS take over. With military voting at least there is a bit of security at the front of the mailing process. Not so much in the civilian side, especially in the cities where there are apartment complexes and the mail can be piled up unaccounted for. An example being just aired on the news just in the last month or so. Anyone can pick up the ballot, fill it out and send it off.

Just my 2 cents. I could be wrong but I doubt it.

If Chris Wallace is even mentioning it. ITS A PROBLEM. ITS FRAUDULENT. But the REPUBLICANS won't do a thing about it. They'll let our President fight yet another battle alone.

The proofs of mail-in ballot failures and vulnerability have been proven, over and over again. The Democrats are just stonewalling.

Wallace is a mockingbird/cia asset. Fox’s Donna Brazil says enough about their commitment to truth and honesty

The states with "robust" mail in ballots spent years setting them up. It is not something which can be done overnight nor at the blink of an eye!
