@motherjonesmag: Donald Trump promised “really big news” in his primetime address on election integrity on Thursday night but failed to deliver any. Instead, he recited a laundry list of disinformation and misinformation but provided no evidence votes were changed or voting systems manipulated in the election he lost six years ago. Election experts called it “shockingly thin,” “underwhelming,” and “something less than a nothingburger.” But that doesn’t mean the threat that Trump poses to fair elections has gone away, writes Ari Berman. In fact, the speech makes it more likely that the president will ultimately take drastic action to interfere in the 2026 midterms.
