Aug. 18 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump on Monday said he will sign an executive order banning mail-in ballots and "inaccurate" voting machines, five years after he claimed he lost the presidential election because of those voting methods.
Trump has repeatedly said the 2020 election was "rigged," especially because of expanded mail-in voting options implemented during the coronavirus pandemic. Numerous lawsuits and audits told him otherwise: Joe Biden secured the most votes and the most in the Electoral College.
"I am going to lead a movement to get rid of MAIL-IN BALLOTS, and also, while we're at it, Highly 'Inaccurate,' Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES, which cost Ten Times more than accurate and sophisticated Watermark Paper, which is faster, and leaves NO DOUBT, at the end of the evening, as to who WON, and who LOST, the Election," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Monday morning.
He repeated these allegations in a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the White House.
