At Twitchy reported earlier, Twitter decided to append an offer to “Get the facts about mail-in ballots” to two of President Trump’s tweets Tuesday in which he claimed that mail-in ballots “will be anything less than substantially fraudulent.”
A lot of people are clamoring now for Twitter to step up its game if it’s going to perform fact-checks on mass mail-in ballots.

Well, now we’re not sure if we can trust mail-in ballots after all. Please, Jack, tell us what to think.
