Trump encourages North Carolina residents to test system by voting twice

quote [ President Trump on Wednesday suggested supporters in North Carolina should illegally attempt to vote both by mail and in person, saying doing so would test the integrity of the system. ]

Here's Trump ordering his supporters to commit crimes...apparently in order to prove crimes are being committed.

I'm loathe to attribute nefarious schemes to Trump when stupidity will suffice.

Voting twice in N.C. is a federal crime and a class-1 felony in the state, as is inducing someone to do so.

I suppose. But the way I see it, Trump is miserable, weak, self-hating character. It's easy to hate him, and I'd cheer if he stumbled into an open cesspit and drowned. He would deserve it. But, aside from the schadenfreudian thrill, would that actually make the world (much) better? Not much, because the only power Trump has is borrowed from the mean, fearful, hateful masses. They are still around, and they can pop another Trump at will.

Any battle isn't against Trump. He's nothing. It's against the fearful.

Fight, yes. Any battle isn't against Trump. He's nothing. It's against those people who embrace fear.

Fight, yes. It's a Good Fight. But any battle isn't against Trump. He's nothing. It's against those people who embrace fear.
