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…
