UPDATE: In a bold call to action, US President Donald Trump has urged the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate the controversial 2020 presidential election, labeling it “rigged and stolen.” This urgent plea comes as Trump claims the integrity of future elections is at stake.
In a post on his Truth Social platform on Sunday, Trump stated, “What’s worse, the NBA Players cheating at cards, and probably much else, or the Democrats cheating on Elections? The 2020 Presidential Election, being Rigged and Stolen, is a far bigger SCANDAL.” He emphasized the need for a thorough inquiry, demanding the DOJ pursue this issue “with as much ‘gusto’ as befitting the biggest SCANDAL in American history.”
The former president’s statements have reignited discussions about election integrity ahead of the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. Trump warned that if the alleged fraudulent activities are not addressed, similar issues could reoccur, stating, “If not, it will happen again, including the upcoming Midterms.”
Trump also voiced his opposition to mail-in and early voting, advocating for stricter voter ID laws. He criticized California’s ballot measures, alleging that millions of ballots were being “shipped” unlawfully. “GET SMART REPUBLICANS, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE,” he added, rallying his supporters in the party.
This latest development highlights the ongoing polarization surrounding the 2020 election results and the broader implications it holds for American democracy. Trump’s insistence on investigating these claims underscores his continued influence over the Republican Party and sets the stage for potential electoral battles ahead.
As this situation unfolds, political analysts are watching closely to see how the DOJ will respond to Trump’s requests and the potential impact on the Republican Party’s strategies leading into the midterms. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
