VOTE BY MAIL/VOTING: “We have to have honest voting. That’s what this is all about here; it’s honest voting. You can’t take millions of ballots, send them haphazardly all over the country or all — all over a state, and expect to come out properly. And if you look at the last 10 elections, where they did this universal — and, by the way, absentee is great. It’s been working for a long time, like in Florida.

Absentee — you request, and it comes in, and then you send it back. Absentee is great, but universal is going to be a disaster, the likes of which our country has never seen. It’ll end up being a rigged election, or they will never come out with an outcome. They’ll have to do it again. And nobody wants that, and I don’t want that.”
