      Republicans should have a plan to counter the fake mail in ballots aside from encouraging voters to vote in 2024. Democrats will just keep on counting fake mail in ballots in Democrat controlled big cities until their candidate wins. They did it in 2020 to Trump. They did it in Arizona in 2022. They will do it again in 2024.

I'm a bass player and sometimes play with my local Whistler friends at The Alpine Cafe. It's a super small place and he's been in there a few times and often accepts invitations to play. It's hard to go incognito if you're as tall as he is, so everybody gives him the courtesy of treating him like everybody else.
