The issue of election security seems to obsess President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Trump never lets go of his claim that the 2020 election was stolen from him despite innumerable recounts and investigations that confirm the official results at all levels.
Trump projects these fears toward the 2026 midterms always claiming that they too are in danger of being stolen by Democrats especially through mail-in ballots and rigged voting machines.
So how does he explain the 2024 election being fair despite having the greatest number of mail-in ballots and voting machine usage ever?
I believe it’s time for a commission to scrutinize the 2024 election to see who really won. Perhaps Trump is sitting at a desk in the Oval Office that rightfully belongs to Kamala Harris.
