Description

President Trump unveiled newly declassified documents he says show Chinese efforts to undermine U.S. elections dating back to 2018, accusing the intelligence community of covering up the findings. He argued the alleged vulnerabilities underscore the need for the Save America Act, though the bill focuses on voter ID, registration and mail-in voting rather than cyber threats.

So i have to have id for literally everything, except for the most important thing in this country? How do i know someone isnt using my nzme to vote? Do they throw out duplicates? Do they inform you if they find extra votes in your name? Do they go back and ask again? Do they check if someone is actually alive in the mail in ballots? None of it makes sense and would be solve my id check and physical voting with some options for the elderly and didabled etc.

Nobody knows who is going to win the House or the Senate. I wish they wouldn't make assumptions

He didn't say China's efforts during 2020 undermined U.S. elections, that's what the declassified documents say. There's the proof he showed, all of it was not public knowledge yet you all report he had no evidence.

Crazy how he wants to reveal the "deep state conspiracy" of why he lost the election in 2020 And not the deep state conspiracy of why no co-conspirators in the Epstein Files are being investigated, or even where the rest of the files went. Not even the UFO aliens. Just BS.

These are just facts. Make of them what you will. During both elections that Trump won, the president was a Democrat and his election security worked to give Trump the win. During the election that Trump lost (and this upcoming midterm election), Trump is president and he is saying that election integrity is badly compromised. Talk amongst yourselves.

How can you say there was "no evidence"? There was plenty of evidence 'Evidence is the raw material (clues, testimonies, data) used to build an argument'. These judges refused to hear the cases so that evidence was never reviewed

He's so full of crap the mainstream news didn't bother to carry the speech. "Trump mad about elections" isn't news. And Fox News had to disclaim the whole thing as unproven election claims 'cuz they lost a billion dollars in a lawsuit for agreeing with his lies. They cut away to more safe reporting: The Iran war he started.

I live in California where I was required to show ID when stopped by a cop for a light out, when I renewed my license with the DMV and when I tossed hazardous waste away at the local dumps. If I view voter ID as racist then the county and state Government is very racist. They need to get rid of all ID requirements if ID is racism.
