What is the President planning to reveal about election machine vulnerabilities on Thursday night?

Unknown 0:00
machines and integrity. Can you give us sort of a sneak peek about what you expect?
Donald J. Trump 0:04
Well, I'd rather save it. It will concern that subject and we'll have a couple of other things to say also. But I'd rather save it. But it's really big news. It's really, really big news. And our country has to shape up. But what we're going to be talking about Thursday is it doesn't get bigger because without free and fair elections, you don't have a country. We'll be discussing other things, too. But it's going to be a very big announcement.
Mike Davis 0:34
Two senior administration officials gave the summary that you just described. It's broadly speaking. going to address the vulnerability of election machines and then two countries, in particular, China and Venezuela. These same officials cautioned me that the president hasn't signed off on this speech. The president can still make changes. So we really won't know exactly what's going to be in it until he delivers it on Thursday night. There's the White House task force that we've talked about. They're part of drafting this speech. So so is Ratcliffe. But that task force is combing through thousands of pages of classified intelligence and law enforcement documents looking, I would assume, for evidence of what the president has claimed without proof, without evidence, but looking for evidence that actual votes were changed.
Mike Davis 1:22
on the ground somehow or by some foreign country. And so that's what people should look for in this speech. The assessment that that's quote from Radcliffe, what he was saying was that the views of analysts who were saying China was more was very actively trying to influence the election. He's saying that wasn't welcomed by the CIA. And again, I want to point out who ran the CIA in 2020. Gina Haspel. Donald Trump was the president of the United States. John Ratcliffe was the director of national intelligence. Gina Haspel, Trump's appointee, was the director of the CIA. So somehow that the CIA or the director of national intelligence is covering up the fact that China stole the election makes no sense.
Mike Davis 2:05
Donald Trump was president in 2020. You appear to be quite different from your predecessors. How are you different? So I've known five of my predecessors. I've learned particular lessons from each of them. I can only be my own man. I served before at the Fed for about five and a half years under Chairman Bernanke and I learned a lot of things then. But you're right, in six weeks we have caused, I think, a sea change in new thinking. The beginning of a set of reforms that are gonna be put in place across at least five dimensions in monetary policy and it's a broader discussion about reforms that will be forthcoming in everything we do. including supervision and regulation, where there's already been a good start in payments and the rest.
Mike Davis 2:54
We made a lot of progress in six weeks, but I think it's important to use this opportunity wisely. The 63 months of inflation above target has been an unfair burden and has been a tax on the American people and businesses. We plan on getting rid of that tax. That means we need a regime change in policy and we need new consideration of practices, some of which have been working, some of which haven't. That's what we aim to do and we're just getting started. Has anyone associated with you been contacted about any of your elections and asked questions about it as part of an investigation that you're aware of? Not to my knowledge, no.
Unknown 3:30
And to answer, just to kind of follow up on what Tia said, if you do, if they declare on your election ineligible, what can you actually do about that to prevent some sort of lack of faith in the system to the voters of Georgia?
Mike Davis 3:44
Again, just consider for a moment that we understand the president may be threatening to declare sitting United States senators illegitimate. If that is the course of action he pursues, he is calling Georgia voters illegitimate. From the very moment Georgia voters rejected him in 2020, he's been on the warpath because he was humiliated by the rebuke that Georgians dealt him.
