Trump, offering no proof, claims foreign meddling threatens US elections in speech slammed for stoking voter fears

President Trump warned in a primetime address about the vulnerability of the nation’s election infrastructure to cyberattacks by foreign actors, citing declassified documents but without offering concrete evidence of actual interference or its impact on election outcomes. Critics, including Democrats and election advocates, denounced the speech for stoking voter fears and perceived attempts to divert attention from other issues. This situation underscores the ongoing tensions around election security and the broader implications for trust in democratic processes amid allegations of foreign meddling.
