Sometimes it’s hard to know if a reporter’s question comes from an antagonist lamely trying to expose supposed hypocrisy in President Donald Trump or from a sycophant teeing up a softball for him to knock out of the park.

At his White House Cabinet meeting on March 26, Trump was asked why he voted by mail-in ballot from Mar-a-Lago when he is seeking a nationwide ban on mail-in ballots via the SAVE Act — legislation being slowly killed by Democrats on Capitol Hill. The bill includes several election reforms to make the voting system less susceptible to fraud, including, most importantly, a national requirement for voters to show ID to prove they are citizens.
