Former President Trump recently appeared to change his stance on ballot harvesting, stating that Republicans “have to play the game” during an interview with Just the News’ John Solomon.
Trump, who had previously criticized mail-in voting and ballot harvesting, now encourages the use of these strategies to secure Republican victories in battleground states, enabling them to change the laws in question.
Trump’s campaign has begun embracing vote-by-mail, with recent fundraising emails emphasizing the need to “master the Democrats’ own game of harvesting ballots.” Other Republican strategists also acknowledge the necessity to reevaluate their approach to early voting and ballot harvesting.
Except Mike Lindell, who says he was very upset at Trump after he said in his last speech that Republicans were going to start ballot harvesting. He said he had a stern talk with Trump after he said that, and vows that Trump will never say it again.

The bottom line: Trump is right. Mike Lindell is wrong. To eliminate Ballot Harvesting, first you must win.
