Trump released documents that confirm Russia tried to interfere in the 2020 election to hurt Biden. It says Russia tried to "orchestrate a high-profile corruption scandal" and push narratives about "voter fraud resulting from mail-in balloting"

Democrats and voting rights groups say Donald Trump’s primetime speech
making unverified claims of Chinese interference in the 2020 election
is the clearest sign yet that the president is laying the groundwork to tamper with the results of November’s midterms.
The upcoming elections to decide the balance of power in Congress and many state legislatures
will be a major test of Trump’s appeal to voters two years after he resoundingly beat the Democratic candidate Kamala…

Those seeking to join Trump’s second administration had to pass a key litmus test:
Did they believe the 2020 election was stolen from Trump?
With like-minded allies now positioned in key roles throughout the government,
Trump has trained the full arsenal of the federal government on one of his most persistent obsessions:
sowing doubt about the security of the country’s election systems.
Major agencies such as the Justice Department, the F.B.I., the Homeland Secu…

Donald Trump delivered a speech to the nation on Thursday night,
sowing doubts in the U.S. election system
and claiming that drastic changes were needed,
-- despite presenting no new or substantiated evidence

in which he legitimately lost to former President Joe Biden.
Instead, Trump downplayed those beliefs,
