Description

US President Donald Trump has delivered a primetime address in which he accused China of interfering in the 2020 election and alleged "shocking vulnerabilities" in American voting systems. Trump, who spoke from the White House on Thursday, has repeatedly made unsubstantiated claims about voter fraud and foreign meddling in the 2020 election which he lost to Joe Biden. In the half-hour speech, delivered three months before the midterm elections, he said he had declassified hundreds of intelligence files which supported his claims that Beijing had tried to sway the election in Biden's favour. The US intelligence community has previously concluded China did not interfere in the 2020 election.

It's fraud, rigged, they cheated whenever his team loses. But the system works great when he wins. God, he's stupid and anyone, especially MAGA, who parrot Trump has an infuriatingly low IQ.

This is how he operates. He tells you of the crime he is going to commit by creating a scape goat to blame as HE commits the crime.

I'm pretty sure China prefers Trump as president. Everything he does helps China get ahead.

Was he not saying it was Russia for the last 6 years? Suddenly it's China? Is life even real anymore?

President Donald Trump has gone berserk, attacking people all over the world. Americans should put President Donald Trump in a cage because he's causing chaos and turmoil worldwide.

Why would China try to influence our elections when Israel is showing everyone how to influence our policies by throwing money at politicians?
