Trump Just Accused His Own Chief Policy Advisor Of Voter Fraud

By Colin Taylor Posted on January 25, 2017

Needy and insecure, President Trump is obsessed with ratings and other measurements. That much is clear from his fixation on repeating the ridiculous conspiracy theory that alleges there were three to five million fraudulent votes filed during the election, which would then explain how he lost the popular vote by such a staggering margin and perhaps prove to himself that he isn’t nearly universally despised by the American people.

Yesterday, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer addressed the media and declared that the mass voter fraud was official White House policy, emphasizing that this is what the President believes. It would appear that Donald Trump truly believes his own delusions, as just this morning he ordered an official investigation into the outrageous conspiracy theory.

even, those registered to vote who are dead (and many for a long time). Depending on results, we will strengthen up voting procedures!

While he isn’t going to find what he’s looking for – there were four documented cases of voter fraud in the 2016 election, out of 135 million votes cast – he will find some of “voter fraud” right under his nose.

The Guardian reports that White House Chief Strategist, former Breitbart editor and avowed white supremacist Stephen Bannon is currently registered to vote in two states – at a vacant house in Florida once owned by the ex-wife he abused on several occasions as well as in New York.

While being registered to vote in two states is not technically illegal, Trump specifically called out multiple voter registrations as part of his ego’s insane campaign against basic mathematics and the truth. While nobody expects Trump to actually act on this information, or that this “investigation” will produce anything substantial, it’s terrifying to consider his threat to “strengthen up” voting procedures.

That will certainly take the form of Republican voter ID laws and other vote-suppression tactics applied on a national scale, making it increasingly difficult for Democrats to reclaim all the ground lost during last election’s blowout defeat. We can’t afford to get distracted by the Trumpian circus of lies while he dismantles our democracy around us.
