YouTube Description
as posted by the channelUS President Donald Trump is continuing his messaging to sow distrust over the integrity of the 2020 elections, as well as upcoming 2026 midterms. The FBI's raid of Fulton County election offices in Georgia to seize 2020 ballots points to the Trump administration's broader strategy of taking control of elections away from local bodies, as prescribed by the US Constitution. Trump's call to 'nationalize the voting' has drawn mixed responses from the Republican party, and has legal scholars worried about the dangerous precedent it could set.
