2020 ELECTION/CORONAVIRUS/VOTE BY MAIL/VOTING: “Absentee ballots are secure, and they’re very good. But universal mail-in are a disaster. You’re going to see an election that — and we’re going to do very well in the election. Nobody wants that date more than me. I wish we would move it up. Okay? Move it up. But you’re not prepared for what they’re doing.
And they’re using COVID. You know, they’re using the China virus. China must be very happy about it, because they hit us with a virus, and now they screw up an election like you — you will never see. You watch what happens. I don’t think you’ll ever give me any statement, ‘I guess Trump was right.’ But the people know I’m right. Watch what happens.”
-Donald Trump, “Remarks by President Trump in a Meeting with the National Association of Police Organizations Leadership,” whitehouse.gov, July 31, 2020
