Did Trump Just Reveal His Plans To Steal The 2026 Midterm Elections? [View all]

A top producer for MSNOW Weeknight is sounding the alarm about a comment President Donald Trump made during his extensive interview with the New York Times that is telling about his 2026 intentions.

Kyle Griffin, executive producer of Weeknight, wrote on X that the detail was a "BIG FLAG.""Trump said during his interview with The New York Times that he regretted not ordering the National Guard to seize voting machines in swing states after his loss in the 2020 election. He doubted whether the Guard was 'sophisticated enough' to carry out the order effectively," Griffin said.

. . .

Trump's new plans included forcing Republican state lawmakers to redraw congressional lines in Republicans' favor. That step, however, was only the beginning. Trump is also pushing to make voter registration more difficult and end the use of voting machines and mail-in ballots.

"The administration has gutted the role of the nation’s cybersecurity agency in protecting elections; stocked the Justice Department, Homeland Security Department and FBI from top to bottom with officials who have denied the legitimacy of the 2020 election; given a White House audience to people who, like the president, promote the lie that he won the 2020 election; sued over state and local election policies that Trump opposes; and called for a new census that excludes noncitizens," the Post explained.

"The wide-ranging efforts seek to expand on some of the strategies he and his advisers and allies used to try to reverse the 2020 results that culminated in the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021," the report added.
