LIVE - United States: Follow Donald Trump's speech, in which he promises 'revelations' in an address to the Nation

Donald Trump is set to address the nation Thursday evening, with his speech expected to focus on what he claims are vulnerabilities within the United States electoral system. This address comes amid reports that Trump intends to discuss recently declassified intelligence documents that allegedly detail foreign interference in the 2020 presidential election.

Trump has persistently, and without evidence, asserted that the 2020 election was fraudulent and stolen from him in favor of Joe Biden. A key focus of his claims has been Fulton County, Georgia, which he lost by fewer than 12,000 votes. The speech is anticipated to touch upon these ongoing claims of election integrity issues.

Donald Trump will address the nation solemnly this Thursday at 9 p.m. (Washington time), in a speech focused on the vulnerabilities that, according to him, affect the United States electoral system.

The context for Trump's address includes his continued efforts to challenge the legitimacy of past elections and his potential influence on upcoming midterm elections. Concerns have been raised by Democrats that Trump might seek to leverage his power to control the voting process, with some even speculating about the deployment of immigration enforcement agents to intimidate certain voters.

Furthermore, Trump's declining popularity and the persistent high cost of living in the U.S. are significant concerns for Republicans as they approach the November midterm elections, where they risk losing their majority. Trump's speech is seen by some as an attempt to rally his base and shift focus amid these challenges.

According to CBS News, the American president could mention unprecedented accusations of Chinese interference in U.S. elections, and the idea that these acts could have compromised the integrity of past elections.
