Trump and his spinners are suddenly freaking out about Florida. Here's why.

After spreading endless lies about vote-by-mail’s supposed susceptibility to fraud, President Trump and his family members — who often double as his propagandists — are suddenly scrambling to reassure voters that mail-balloting is actually tremendously secure and reliable.

Yet they are mainly doing this in one particular state — Florida, which just happens to be an absolute must-win for Trump.

But in undertaking this new scramble, Trump and his spinners are actually reminding us of the degree to which they are willing to corrupt our election on his behalf. The stakes are incredibly high: Large numbers of voters could be disenfranchised, allowing Trump to prevail.

This push comes in the form of a new Trump campaign ad from Lara Trump, the president’s daughter-in-law, and a new tweet from the president himself.

A lot of mail in votes will disappear in Democratic areas and be counted in repuke ones. And those votes machines are already programmed for MF45 to win. it will be like 2000 where Jeb Bush gave the election to his brother.

Regardless of the polls the narrative will be there are a lot of silent majority MF45 supporters.
