Trump’s Questionable Claims Cast Doubt over Midterms as Dems Fret
A YouGov poll found 28% of voters already believe the 2020 election was rigged as Trump raises new doubts about election integrity.
- President Donald Trump used a prime-time address Thursday to repeat unfounded 2020 election claims and accuse China of the "illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files" through a special intelligence unit.
- Struggling to find an off-ramp for an unpopular foreign war, Trump returned to his favorite grievance—the 2020 election he lost to Joe Biden, taking a major political risk less than four months before midterm elections.
- Trump warned of "rogue bureaucrats" and called the United States election system "so broken and so vulnerable that no one can possibly defend it," claiming voting machines face hacking and corruption.
- Jim Himes, ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, warned the president could be setting the stage to meddle in November's midterm elections and challenge results if Republicans lose congressional control.
- Joseph Morelle, ranking member of the Administration Committee, told C-SPAN that Trump intends to "sow so much confusion" in coming months to claim "extraordinary powers" and weaken democracy's foundation.
