President Trump released a videotaped 46-minute address from the White House Wednesday that he said “may be the most important speech I’ve ever made. ” What followed, however, was a litany of unsubstantiated claims about the November election he lost to Joe Biden that the president had already been making for weeks.

Trump said he was providing “an update” on his campaign’s efforts to “expose the tremendous voter fraud” that he claims cost him the election. Trump and his lawyers have unsuccessfully tried to persuade judges in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin and Michigan to stop the process of certifying the ballot counts.

Biden won in all those states, and is on track to win the Electoral College by a margin of 306 to 232.

Contradicting the head of the U. S. cybersecurity agency, Christopher Krebs, who was appointed, and subsequently fired, by Trump, the president said the electoral system was under “coordinated assault and siege. ” The president then noted something true: that election experts had predicted that final results would take days or even weeks to verify, due to an unprecedented number of mail-in ballots. Republican legislatures in Pennsylvania and elsewhere would not permit poll workers to begin tabulating early and mail-in votes until Election Day.
