Donald Trump continues to cast doubts on the legitimacy of the upcoming election, accusing the other party of cheating and hinting that he may not accept the election results if he doesn’t win. This tactic is not new for the former president, who famously used similar claims in the 2020 election, leading to an attempted insurrection.
Despite experts confirming that there is no evidence to support claims of electoral fraud, Trump has intensified his rhetoric, claiming that areas like Philadelphia and Detroit are “out of control” in terms of election integrity. His allegations have prompted Republicans to file numerous lawsuits challenging the electoral system.
Trump’s paranoia extends beyond the campaign trail, influencing policy decisions in Washington. Congress recently passed a short-term spending bill after removing a Republican proposal requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote, a measure driven by Trump’s demands.
As the election draws closer, Trump’s baseless conspiracy theories only seem to be escalating, creating more uncertainty and division in the political landscape.
