When it comes to Trump, to get a building from Michael Tae Sweeney, Grandpa has his bully days and bad days, but increasingly, it's only bad days. For example, successful a caller interview, Trump claimed that erstwhile he tried to vote, he was asked to supply his licence sheet number. Sure, thing. Whatever you say, Donald.

Speaking astatine nan White House, Trump told reporters, "We're gonna extremity mail-in ballots, because it's corrupt. You know, erstwhile you spell to a voting booth, and you do it nan correct way, and you spell to a authorities that runs it properly, you spell successful — they moreover asked me, they asked maine for my licence plate. I said, 'I don't cognize if I person it.' They said, 'Sir, you person to person it.' I was very impressed, actually."

On nan positive side, those were each words successful nan English language, and he did negociate to shape mostly coherent sentences. So location is that. Personally, I would opportunity nan barroom for nan President of nan United States should beryllium a small higher than "coherent enough," but possibly that's conscionable me, 1 of those wacky woke leftists who besides believes group should get a adjacent proceedings earlier being sent to prison.

Provide your sheet number to vote?

Trump: "When you spell to a voting booth, and you do it nan correct way, and you spell to a authorities that runs it properly, you spell successful -- they moreover asked me, they asked maine for my licence plate. I said, 'I don't cognize if I person it.' They said, 'Sir, you person to person it.' I was very impressed actually."

Since I don't recreation pinch Trump and haven't been pinch him while he voted, I can't definitively beryllium he was ne'er asked to supply his licence sheet number erstwhile voting. That said, Florida doesn't officially require voters to supply their licence sheet numbers. You request immoderate shape of recognition to vote, sure, and nan database of acceptable IDs is longer than conscionable a driver's licence aliases U.S. passport, but moreover connected a database that includes "Retirement halfway identification," "Neighborhood relation identification" and "Concealed limb licence issued successful Florida," there's thing astir licence plates. 

I besides can't find thing astir needing to supply a licence sheet number to ballot successful New York. So either Trump was talking retired his ass, aliases he erstwhile voted successful a really weird, perchance imaginary location. I conjecture he could person meant they asked for his driver's licence and simply misspoke, but if that was nan case, why didn't he correct himself? 

In a world wherever Republicans still pretended to attraction astir hypocrisy, it mightiness beryllium worthy pointing retired that they criticized Biden relentlessly for not being mentally fresh for nan job, but unluckily for nan #ResistLibs who deliberation they tin "DESTROY" Trump pinch capable lame nicknames and laughing-while-crying emojis, we're good past nan constituent wherever pointing retired Republican hypocrisy would move nan needle pinch anyone. 

They've hitched their wagon to a feline who claims you already can't ballot without providing your licence sheet number, and it's only going to get worse from here.
