President Donald Trump delivered a speech to the nation on Thursday night, sowing doubts in the U.S. election system and claiming that drastic changes were needed, despite presenting no new or substantiated evidence that any past election was affected by fraud.<\/p>\n

Trump was expected to deliver a missive rehashing the results of the 2020 presidential race, in which he legitimately lost to former President Joe Biden. Instead, Trump downplayed those beliefs, but still maintained that supposed vulnerabilities in election systems made it necessary to pass the SAVE AMERICA Act, legislation that could disenfranchise tens of millions of U.S. voters. <\/p>\n

\u201cNo country can be great without fair and honest elections,\u201d the president stated during his speech. \u201cYou have to trust your country because, if there can be no trust, there can be no greatness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump is himself notorious for lying in his statements to the American people. If the president was seeking to deliver on trust, he failed spectacularly, as his speech was full of deep misrepresentations.<\/p>\n
