.MaddowBlog: After voting by mail, President Trump denounces voting by mail
"Mail ballots are corrupt, in my opinion," he said. But reporters pointed out that Trump has voted by mail, by absentee ballot, in his adopted state of Florida. His response: "Sure, I can vote by mail. Because I'm allowed to. That's called out of state. You know why I voted? Because I happened to be in the White House and I won't be able to go to Florida to vote."
Pressed to explain why some mail-in ballots are fine and others are"corrupt," Trump described an imagined scenario in which"you get thousands and thousands of people sitting in somebody's living room signing ballots all over the place."
