Anyway, his assertions were greeted almost immediately by skepticism as his ambition to muddy the electoral waters before the midterms, where the Republicans could lose either one or both of the houses, was so obvious.

And as the dust settled yesterday, I spoke to Caroline Vakil, campaign reporter at The Hill.
voice-verified
Thanks for having me, Pat.
voice-verified
Caroline, what exactly did Donald Trump claim in this primetime address?
voice-verified
Was there anything really new in what he presented?
voice-verified
Now, how have the Democrats responded?
voice-verified
You know, it's early enough after the speech, but how have they responded?
voice-verified
Have they pooh-poohed it or have they seen anything at all of substance in it?
voice-verified
So they would argue that this is not really about the next presidential election, but rather about the midterms.
voice-verified
And if he can demonstrate that the electoral system generally is flawed, then he can challenge the results.
voice-verified
Now, he repeatedly said that America's elections are, and this is the term he used, catastrophically vulnerable.
voice-verified
Does he have executive powers that would enable him to supersede the powers of the states themselves to run their own elections?
voice-verified
Now, does anyone on the Democratic side raise the potential issue that Trump talks about cheating all the time because he's a cheater and he attempted to cheat himself and it didn't work, and therefore he concludes that the others must have been just cheating better than him?
voice-verified
Now, the question of what they might be up to on the Republican side, I mean, we know that Trump is preoccupied by the polls.
voice-verified
But for once, he doesn't seem to be concerned that he's at a very low ebb, down at Jimmy Carter type levels.
voice-verified
He doesn't seem to be as bothered about that as he might have been in the past.
voice-verified
Who do you think his audience was when he spoke about this?
voice-verified
Was it undecided voters, independent voters, or was it trying to re-energize and reassure his own base?
voice-verified
Well, it remains to be seen, I suppose.
voice-verified
But meantime, I mean, the Trump machine never stops.
