There are bad ideas, and then there are ideas so impractical, so constitutionally dubious, and so fundamentally misguided that you wonder if anyone involved paused long enough to think them through. Turning mail carriers into election police is one of those ideas.
The latest Trump proposal would effectively force the U.S. Postal Service to verify voter eligibility for mail-in ballots, transforming an already strained federal agency into something resembling a roaming election enforcement unit. It’s a plan that manages to be, all at once, unworkable, unnecessary, and corrosive to both democracy and basic governance.
