When Trump Gotchas End Up Proving His Point

Published



Donald Trump, apparently sad! at having lost the popular vote in his race against Hillary Clinton, has announced on—where else?—Twitter, “a major investigation into VOTER FRAUD, including those registered to vote in two states, those who are illegal, and even those registered to vote who are dead.” In response, numerous news outlets have reported that various confidants of the president are themselves registered to vote in two states.

Trump’s chief strategist Stephen Bannon was registered to vote in two states! Treasury secretary-designate Steven Mnuchin is registered to vote in two states! Even Trump’s daughter Tiffany is registered to vote in two states! (Giving her the ability, presumably, to vote against her dad twice.)
