President Trump to Deliver Primetime Address on Election Security July 16

President Donald Trump is scheduled to deliver a primetime address at 9 p.m. ET on July 16 focused on election security. He stated the speech would include really big news. Reuters and Axios reported Trump may release new intelligence about investigations into the 2020 elections during the address.

Usa Today reported the event occurs nearly six years after the 2020 contest. Trump and his allies brought 64 cases across six swing states after the 2020 election. A 2022 report titled Lost, Not Stolen found all but one were lost.

The single successful case in Pennsylvania was procedural and involved too few votes to change results. The report stated 20 cases were dismissed before a hearing on the merits and 14 were dismissed at the request of Trump and his allies. Thirty cases reached court hearings, and 29 failed.

Charges centered on fraud or improper ballot counts, voting machine issues, absentee and mail-in irregularities, ineligible voters, and blocked observers. The Lost, Not Stolen report concluded Joe Biden was the choice of a majority of electors and that Trump and his supporters failed to present evidence of fraud sufficient to invalidate the results. Trump won the 2024 presidential election.

Usa Today will stream the July 16 address live on YouTube.
