You mean the fact they caught them fairly easily?

18,600 charges for Breaking and Entering are filed every year. That seems like a lot, but there are 160,000 B&E's. 

The moral of the story is that just because some people get caught doesn't mean that there aren't 10x as many people getting away with it. 

 

I can't read that article, it's behind the NYT's paywall and I don't give money to terrorists or their sympathizers. Just out of curiosity:

 -How many people were charged, and for trying to affect how many extra votes? 

-Did their scam have a chance of working?

-Would their scam even have been worth trying if they had to show up at a polling station with ID?

-What penalty are they facing? Is it the kind of sentence that would deter a career criminal/welfare type, or would it just deter working people and business owners who have jobs and a credit rating that they can't afford to lose? IE, is this something that Dem voters can afford to get caught doing but GOP voters can't?

You're using logic and facts on people who see no relevance in such things.

Various forms of the quote: "Mail-in ballots are infallible! Anyone who thinks otherwise is a joke!" are the answer to everything you say.

You could show those guys a high-def video of Schiff & Pelosi mass-printing ballots with the Biden box already checked off and these guys would say "Look, they got caught! This is 100% proof that mail-in voting is 100% secure!"

Oddly, the only evidence of an organized voter fraud of this type happened in North Carolina. Guess who did it?

You mean, "They only found evidence of this once, but it could have happened hundreds of times because it's a fairly easy crime to get away with".

It 'could' have happened hundreds of times. Right. Sure. Why not say thousands, or millions or billions while you're at it?

I'm not here being a jackass, or to misrepresent anything, I'm stating an obvious truth.

Just because only 1 or two groups got caught does not mean "every single person or group that tried a mail-in ballot scam got busted" and you shouldn't be insinuating as much. 

There's ample proof that several different types of scams are occurring, and there's no way to prove that none have been successful. There's a zero percent chance of that.

Really? Did he not tell them to go to the poll, ask if they had a record of their vote, and then vote if they didn't? Because the poll workers would often not have such records and absentee ballots are often not counted until after the election anyway. Which means if they voted at the poll and then their absentee ballot was checked they'd be arrested. Not so?

You and Trump have a different opinion on what's legal but more specifically here's what he said without the editorializing, in a series of Tweets:

Quote

Based on the massive number of Unsolicited & Solicited Ballots that will be sent to potential Voters for the upcoming 2020 Election, & in order for you to MAKE SURE YOUR VOTE COUNTS & IS COUNTED, SIGN & MAIL IN your Ballot as EARLY as possible. On Election Day, or Early Voting,..

 

…..go to your Polling Place to see whether or not your Mail In Vote has been Tabulated (Counted). If it has you will not be able to Vote & the Mail In System worked properly. If it has not been Counted, VOTE (which is a citizen’s right to do). If your Mail In Ballot arrives….

….after you Vote, which it should not, that Ballot will not be used or counted in that your vote has already been cast & tabulated. YOU ARE NOW ASSURED THAT YOUR PRECIOUS VOTE HAS BEEN COUNTED, it hasn’t been “lost, thrown out, or in any way destroyed”. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

https://noqreport.com/2020/09/03/trump-tweet-censored-as-he-gets-leftists-to-talk-about-mail-in-ballot-voter-fraud/

And let's be clear what you actually, originally claimed. What I questioned was you saying Trump told people "to try to vote twice." So no, he didn't do that.

Interesting though that you seem to believe it would be possible to commit voter fraud with mail-in voting. That's something you and the President agree on anyway.

Much of the way voter fraud is detected is after the fact. Always has been. Cheating on your taxes is the same way. You put in what you want, and they take your word for it. If your tax return calls for a fat refund, you get the refund. Then a little ways later you get a letter telling you your taxes have been 'reassessed' and you owe them a ton of cash.

Ballots are not all counted immediately. Mail-in ballots are certainly not all going to have been counted and registered before the end of day on voting day. Especially those only mailed in a few days earlier. Anyone with more than half a brain knows that. And I thought the great fear was about people taking their ballots, changing them, and submitting them with a different vote. If that's the fear than even if it was registered they'd be told 'yes', their vote was counted. Now suddenly the fear is what? That mail-in ballots will be thrown away, sight unseen?

[Argus]

Trump's attitude is not endearing him to military people or veterans, despite these groups usually being strongly Republican.

The race for the presidency in a country that has elected 26 military veterans to that office, half of them generals, is being roiled by reports that the current commander-in-chief – who was exempted from Vietnam-era service by a controversial bone spur diagnosis – has repeatedly disparaged American war dead as “losers” and “suckers.”

The remarks attributed to President Donald Trump have become an instant campaign issue, with Democratic nominee Joe Biden saying the President’s soul was “that of a coward.” Speaking of his late son, Beau, who was awarded the Bronze Star Medal for his service in Iraq, Mr. Biden asserted, “My son wasn’t a sucker.’'

It was just more outright lies from the exact same MSM that has lied about every other politically-charged story of the past 4 years, but go ahead and keep trying to kick that football Charlie Brown.

What you're intentionally ignorant of is the fact that showing up at a polling booth with government-issued ID is by far the most secure polling policy.

There are many, many ways to scam an election that's done via mail and if you Google them they don't show up. Instead you get a slew of articles laughing about how idiotic it is to think that mail-in elections can be scammed, or fake proof that they are infallible. 

Even if I didn't tell you how many scams can be run with mail-in ballots, you should have instantly seen through it for yourself. The fact that you just toe the Dem party line and refuse to use common sense, to think for yourself or to at least have an open mind to all the evidence that's coming in speaks to a disturbing closed-mindedness.

You should be more alarmed and less of a useful idiot Argus.

There's a theory that the calls this last week from the Clintons and other Democrats to never accept the results of the election if it doesn't turn out the way they want is part of the strategy of creating chaos with late tabulation from mass "mail-out" voting.

On the other hand Soros and his little band of useful idiots are ready if the opposite happens:

Quote

A bipartisan group of about 80 political operatives and academics has been involved in discussions about what could happen if President Donald Trump were to lose the November election and then contest the results, potentially refusing to leave the White House.

Quote

https://www.newsweek.com/bipartisan-group-predicts-violence-if-trump-loses-election-refuses-leave-white-house-1520561

Either way they create the chaos with mass "mail-out" voting then gain advantage from the bedlam:

Quote

Revolver believes that this TIP group may be the organization tasked with fomenting a color revolution to get President Trump out of office regardless of the results of November’s election. They compared Brooks’ recent Washington Post op/ed with The Democracy Playbook, a guide to color revolutions published by the globalist Brookings Institution. They concluded that TIP is about creating a self-fulfilling prophecy that keeps Trump from a second presidential term regardless of what the American people decide.

Big League Politics has reported about how Biden is being encouraged not to concede to Trump under any circumstances by Hillary Clinton, as Democrats once again engage in the behavior they are accusing Trump of committing:

Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is urging Joe Biden to be a sore loser and make the election in November as grueling and agonizing as it can be.

Clinton does not believe that Biden should do what’s best for the country. If he is losing on election night, she implores him to keep the fight going even if it means tearing the nation apart at its seams.

And in case we still don't get the danger here, here's something to think about:

Quote

Republicans have always seemed remarkably flaccid in their response to these “lost” and “found” votes always being cast for the Democrat.

As Angelo M. Codevilla warned:

“Consider the 2020 election. In July, the Democratic National Committee engaged some 600 lawyers to litigate the outcome, possibly in every state. No particular outcome of such litigations is needed to set off a systemic crisis. The existence of the litigations themselves is enough for one or more blue state governors to refuse to certify that state’s electors to the Electoral College, so as to prevent the college from recording a majority of votes for the winner. In case no winner could be confirmed by January’s Inauguration Day, the 20th Amendment provides that Congress would elect the next president. Who doubts that, were Donald Trump the apparent winner, and were Congress in Democratic hands, that this would be likelier than not to happen?”

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2020/09/the_dems_plan_to_steal_the_presidency.html

The danger is a legalized coup.

[-TSS-]

That is total bullshit that if Trump loses he would barricade himself in the White House and refuse to leave. Stuff like that happens in some African or Central-American banana republics but not in any developed western country.

The Never Trumpers will ignore this too.

called President George H.W. Bush a loser for being shot down during WWII.

said “I don’t get it. What was in it for them?” To Gen. John Kelly — while visiting Kelly’s son’s grave at Arlington.

“That guy is smart. Why did he join the military?” re: Joint Chiefs of Staff, he said asked his staff to not include wounded veterans in events because amputees make him uncomfortable.

It’s not about whether it’s something he would’ve said, it’s about whether there’s any evidence he did.  There is none.  And the only person that was actually there, that’s willing to go on the record, is Trump enemy John Bolton.  Just because something fits your narrative of Trump doesn’t mean it’s true.  Facts don’t care about your feelings.  Again, if this was said and so egregious, why wasn’t anything said over the last 2 years?  Why wasn’t anything leaked?  Why is it reported on 2 months before the election?  I think you know why.

More bad news for Dems.  Probably the reason for the recent hit job based on unnamed sources.  Anyways.

I'd settle for one that mattered. I didn't mind that one video you posted though.

But he didn't say anything in there I had a problem with so I don't know what you thought you were proving by offering it up.

Here's another video below I liked even better. Not the whole thing, just THE Kayleigh Mcenany talk at the end where she explained how the Atlantic article was based on remarks from 4 unnamed sources but 10 actual, for real and named sources with 1st hand, on the ground knowledge of what happened debunk everything the anonymous sources who supposedly came forward 2 years after the events to make nonsense claims, 2 months before an election. Totally FAKE NEWS. Oh well, at least they didn't claim he peed on the bed this time.
