Trump claims upcoming elections will be unbeatable amid new voter-restriction plans

Donald Trump declared that his side will never be defeated in upcoming elections, referencing a contested claim that thousands of non-citizens voted in 2020. The article argues that the claim is false and serves as a pretext for Republicans to impose stricter voting regulations targeting various demographic groups. A Center for American Progress fact sheet is cited, listing fifteen interlocking tactics such as dismissing election officials, encouraging voter-list clean-ups, and stationing ICE agents at polling places.

The piece notes that six Republican justices on the Supreme Court could decide a case involving an executive order that would let a postmaster block ballots for voters not on a preferred list. It also references past alleged election manipulations by Republican figures and suggests current efforts are more overt. The author warns that these moves could fundamentally alter voting access and democratic norms.
