Trump is expected to make election conspiracy theories a focus of his national address

Theory Briefing

  • Trump plans to address the nation with a focus on elections and voting machines, elevating long-running fraud claims to a presidential platform.
  • Repeated exposure to unverified election claims can make them feel more credible over time, regardless of supporting evidence.
  • Framing a national address around contested voting systems signals these narratives remain politically potent years after the 2020 election.
