1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:00,968
Rich.

2
00:00:01,034 --> 00:00:01,835
There was also this big

3
00:00:01,902 --> 00:00:02,636
executive order

4
00:00:02,703 --> 00:00:03,437
from President

5
00:00:03,504 --> 00:00:05,072
Trump this week

6
00:00:05,138 --> 00:00:06,940
dealing with mail-In voting.

7
00:00:07,007 --> 00:00:08,475
What did the president call

8
00:00:08,542 --> 00:00:09,510
for there?

9
00:00:09,576 --> 00:00:10,077
He called for

10
00:00:10,143 --> 00:00:11,512
some very sweeping

11
00:00:11,578 --> 00:00:13,146
changes, essentially

12
00:00:13,213 --> 00:00:14,882
a federal overhaul

13
00:00:14,948 --> 00:00:17,618
and a lot more participation

14
00:00:17,684 --> 00:00:18,719
from the federal government

15
00:00:18,785 --> 00:00:20,254
with regard to voting lists

16
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,289
and absentee voting.

17
00:00:22,356 --> 00:00:23,257
So the

18
00:00:23,323 --> 00:00:24,691
executive order directs

19
00:00:24,758 --> 00:00:25,592
federal agencies

20
00:00:25,659 --> 00:00:27,528
to create lists of U.S.

21
00:00:27,594 --> 00:00:28,195
citizens

22
00:00:28,262 --> 00:00:29,429
who are eligible to vote

23
00:00:29,496 --> 00:00:30,197
in every state,

24
00:00:30,264 --> 00:00:31,331
including Wisconsin.

25
00:00:31,398 --> 00:00:33,433
Then it also directs the U.S.

26
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:34,635
Postal Service

27
00:00:34,701 --> 00:00:35,435
to not send

28
00:00:35,502 --> 00:00:36,937
any mail in ballots

29
00:00:37,004 --> 00:00:37,838
to people who

30
00:00:37,905 --> 00:00:39,039
aren't on those lists.

31
00:00:39,106 --> 00:00:39,873
It would just give

32
00:00:39,940 --> 00:00:40,641
the President

33
00:00:40,707 --> 00:00:41,642
Donald Trump's administration

34
00:00:41,708 --> 00:00:42,776
a lot of power over

35
00:00:42,843 --> 00:00:43,677
who gets to vote

36
00:00:43,744 --> 00:00:44,478
and who doesn't.

37
00:00:44,545 --> 00:00:45,312
So I think what

38
00:00:45,379 --> 00:00:46,079
a lot of people

39
00:00:46,146 --> 00:00:47,481
would be rightfully wondering

40
00:00:47,548 --> 00:00:49,049
is, is this going to happen?

41
00:00:49,116 --> 00:00:49,716
Is this something

42
00:00:49,783 --> 00:00:51,752
that is likely to happen

43
00:00:51,818 --> 00:00:53,487
in Wisconsin, specifically.

44
00:00:53,554 --> 00:00:54,655
If this had a prayer

45
00:00:54,721 --> 00:00:55,622
or a chance of actually

46
00:00:55,689 --> 00:00:56,356
being legal

47
00:00:56,423 --> 00:00:57,791
or valid in Wisconsin?

48
00:00:57,858 --> 00:00:58,458
There would have been

49
00:00:58,525 --> 00:00:59,326
some of the usual

50
00:00:59,393 --> 00:01:00,527
Trump supporting Republicans

51
00:01:00,594 --> 00:01:01,028
that would have come out

52
00:01:01,094 --> 00:01:01,762
and said, yes,

53
00:01:01,828 --> 00:01:02,629
thank you, President Trump.

54
00:01:02,696 --> 00:01:03,897
It's about time.

55
00:01:03,964 --> 00:01:04,865
I didn't see any of that.

56
00:01:04,932 --> 00:01:05,566
Maybe somewhere

57
00:01:05,632 --> 00:01:06,066
it was put out

58
00:01:06,133 --> 00:01:06,733
and I missed it.

59
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,135
But the overall reaction

60
00:01:08,202 --> 00:01:09,203
was a lot of crickets

61
00:01:09,269 --> 00:01:10,037
from Republicans.

62
00:01:10,103 --> 00:01:10,704
That signals

63
00:01:10,771 --> 00:01:11,371
most election

64
00:01:11,438 --> 00:01:11,972
observers saying

65
00:01:12,039 --> 00:01:12,706
this is

66
00:01:12,773 --> 00:01:14,274
completely not legal

67
00:01:14,341 --> 00:01:15,008
in Wisconsin,

68
00:01:15,075 --> 00:01:17,878
unenforceable in Wisconsin.
