President Trump and his campaign are taking a no-holds-barred approach to ensuring that Americans show up to cast their votes in November for the 45th president, and on Tuesday, a new announcement highlighted a key partnership that is aimed at engaging absentee, mail, and early in-person voters.

“Today, President Donald J. Trump and Trump Force 47 announced the launch of Swamp The Vote USA to promote the use of absentee and mail ballots and early in-person voting,” an official campaign statement heralded.

The initiative is the successor to the “Bank Your Vote” program from the Republican National Committee.

In its launch statement, the coalition explained, “The Trump Force 47 program incorporates Swamp The Vote USA into its organizing model by using personalized voter contacts to generate new absentee or mail ballot registrations and early in-person voting commitments.”

President Trump discussed the ‘swamp’ strategy to voting as far back as 2022

A brand-new website has been launched in cohesion with this effort, making it easy and fast for voters to pledge to vote early or on Election Day. There are also links to requesting a ballot and checking voter registration information.

President Trump even had a special message for voters along with the launch of Swamp The Vote, where he laid out the clear pathway to a Republican victory in 2024.

He said, “Republicans must win and we will use every appropriate tool to beat the Democrats because they are destroying our country.  Whether you vote absentee, by mail, early in-person or on election day, we are going to protect the vote.  We make sure your ballot is secure and your voice is heard.”

The president further pressed, “We must swamp the radical Democrats with massive turnout.  The way to win is to swamp them, if we swamp them with votes they can’t cheat.  You need to make a plan, register, and vote any way possible.  We have got to get your vote.” 

Trump has previously pressed for Americans to swamp the ballot box with overwhelming numbers of votes to counteract any potentially shady business or potential cheating.

“Because there comes a point where…it’s just too big to cheat,” he remarked in January.
