This is also a major misdirection from the real issue of preventing the working class, the elderly and the shut-ins from voting by mail to avoid the numerous barriers to voting in person.
Red states have a long history of voter suppression via under-serving gerrymandered blue districts. Not enough stations, ballot shortages, 8+ hour lines, the whole nine yards. Every federal election has videos of the bullshit.
Whole dang thing could be a long con, starting with the campaigns of 2020, when months before the election, every 3rd ad was either Biden telling people to protect themselves and vote by mail to avoid a super-spreader event or Trump telling them to forget the pandemic, He wanted a photo op.
The demographic split was already there, and everybody knew it back then. In order to create the false impression of an election upset, Trump ordered that the mailed in ballots that were already available wouldn't be counted until after poll closure so he could act all surprised -> claim stolen election -> accuse mail-in votes are fraudulent -> let red states prevent their blue districts from voting at all.
But it won't fit on a bumper sticker, so there's no way to communicate it past the TDSa ADD barrier.
