Overview

• During remarks attacking mail-in ballots on Monday, President Trump recounted poll workers asking for his “license plate.”
• News outlets noted that Florida, where he votes, requires government photo ID and signature verification, and license plates contain neither.
• Some reporters suggested he may have meant a driver's license, which includes both a photo and a signature.
• Critics on X and in left-leaning outlets publicly mocked the anecdote and questioned his coherence.
• There is no independent confirmation of the claim, and no public correction from Trump had been reported as of Tuesday.
