Donald Trump announced Sunday that Republicans plan to dispense a large “Election Integrity Army” to every single state for the 2026 midterms – invoking his debunked claims that the United States does not have fair elections.
In a message on his Truth Social platform the president appeared to attribute his “Historic Election in 2024” to the fact that the Republican National Committee sent thousands of volunteers across the country to poll watch or assist with election litigation through a volunteer program.
Not at my polling location they won’t. Have you signed up to be an election judge yet?
Why aren’t they going to your location?
The president says yes, you say no. Which one do you think determines whether armed goons show up? Can you tell me why “not at my polling location they won’t”?
Friendly reminder that not everyone on the internet is American, and in fact most aren’t.
i want to say “not at my location” and show up armed with a semiautomatic shotgun, but i don’t have a semiautomatic shotgun. also if i showed up with my rhetorical shotty, they’d probably shoot me. i’m visibly disabled, there’s a nontrivial chance i get shot in every police interaction, one with a firearm just increases it.
Trump says a lot of shit that isn’t true. And he does it with the goal of scaring people.
If you’re not a poll worker and not even American, I’m not gonna listen to you tell me how elections in America work. I and thousands of others like me are the ones who run them.
I’m a poll worker and American. Can you answer that question?
And do you plan on rolling over if anyone tries to interfere with voters at your polling place or do you plan on doing your job?
Yep, I am sure my historical heritage has no relevance in how elections can be suspended.
Good luck!
