Trump’s assault on the Postal Service and voting by mail is a threat to democracy. Democrats are pushing back.

These state-level victories show that Republicans' voter suppression efforts — even when seemingly coordinated between GOP-dominated state legislatures and conservatives on the U.S. Supreme Court — can be beaten. The wins also show that Donald Trump's continued trolling about election security, no matter how trivial or tangential it may appear in the middle of a horribly mismanaged pandemic response, must be challenged.

Statewide mail-in voting "doesn't work out well for Republicans," he recently tweeted. It's a claim the Georgia House speaker, Republican David Ralston, recently made as well. "They grab thousands of mail-in ballots and they dump it," Trump said of Democrats from the White House press briefing room last week, without explaining exactly what he meant or offering any evidence.

Perhaps most importantly, Trump is seeking to shift the blame for a possible election defeat in November.

Bold emphasis is mine.
