Washington, D.C. — Today, President Donald Trump made remarks asserting that China and other foreign nations attempted to meddle in the 2020 election. In response, Michael Sozan, senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, issued the following statement:
Yet again, President Trump is dredging up debunked election conspiracy theories in a desperate effort to rewrite the past and subvert the upcoming midterm elections. He is resurrecting the same old, tired playbook to make Americans doubt the legitimacy of their electoral process. Apparently, Trump will never be willing to accept the fact that he lost the 2020 election, and that state and local officials continue to conduct free and fair elections. This is just another attempt by him to distract voters from his plummeting approval ratings and the fact that the rising cost of living, rampant inflation, and continuing war with Iran are affecting the lives of all Americans.
