“Let’s be Real”: Hypocrite Trump Votes By Mail

In Donald Trump’s world, there are two Americas.

There is the America, populated by his corporate and Twenty First Century Fortune 500 Gilded Age seeking supporters who deserve every privilege and perk the United States has to offer, including massive tax cut benefits, environmental deregulation, and profit increases from rising oil prices.

Then there is everyone else, including those individuals who, despite the record from his first term, were suckered into voting for him, who Trump feels should just be happy with the crumbs from his fiscal policies and should blindly believe all the lies he is saying about solving the affordability crisis and winning in Iran.

Trump’s lying and hypocrisy in his two Americas mindset manifest itself in the recent special election for a state house seat where his residence, Mar-a-Lago, is located.

Saying voting by mail should be banned because of his repeatedly discredited claims that the process creates massive chances for voter fraud, Mr. Trump voted in this special election...wait for it…by mail.

This is the second time Trump, who called mail-in voting “mail-in cheating,” has voted by sending in his ballot, since he made Mar-a-Lago his official residence.

In an exchange with PBS reporter Liz Landers at his cabinet meeting yesterday, Mr. Trump justified his hypocrisy by saying:

“You know why. Because I’m President of the United States, and because of the fact that I’m President of the United States, I did a mail-in ballot for elections that took place in Florida because I felt I should be here…”

When pressed by Landers that he has spent time, mostly golfing, while TSA workers went without pay and members of his military were getting injured or dying fighting his war of choice in Iran, at his Florida home, and could have voted early in person, Trump evaded in his response:

“That’s right, and I decided that I was going to vote by mail-in ballot because I couldn’t be there and because I had a lot of different things.”

Trump then pointed out all the provisions in the voter-suppressing SAVE Act that would allow mail-in voting, such as being away, a member of the military, traveling on business, suffering a disability, or illness.

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, who is fighting the Trump regime’s attempts to interfere with the 2026 elections and access state voter rolls, released a satirical video with the Secretary musing about Trump’s hypocrisy with the musical lyrics “Let’s be honest. Let’s be real” playing in the background.

Better words could not have been said.

It should be noted that the Democrat, Emily Gregory, did win the special election on Trump’s home turf.

It was a seat that went for the Republican candidate by 19 points in 2024.

A Blue Wave may be coming this fall.

People need to get out and vote.

And they should be able to do it like hypocritical Donald Trump has done numerous times.

By mail.
