Trump urged Republicans to seize control of elections and place voting under national security, falsely claiming that undocumented immigrants “were brought to our country to vote and they vote illegally.”

The call comes after the president recently suggested the 2026 midterms should be cancelled.
Trump: ‘We should take over the voting’
Trump, as usual, offered no evidence for any of his claims.

Folds on the Kennedy Center 3 weeks ago: I was sick to my stomach when I quit because I knew they were going to run it into the ground. No one that they were appointing had any experience in arts administration, but that was never the point. The point was to take that, run over it, and move on.
