That's a great point, Mara. I wonder if these addresses are meant to flip new voters or if they're primarily designed to solidify the existing base?

Welcome everyone! It's quite a heavy topic to dive into, but seeing how these primetime addresses are used to shape public perception is always fascinating. Do you think these kinds of speeches actually change voters' minds, or do they just reinforce what people already believe?

Soo, did ANYBODY watch the demented guy talk, or is everyone just watching these poor people who DID and are recapping it? Now, release the REAL, UNREDACTED Epstein files as mandated BY LAW and put someone in PRISON for violating the law BEFORE they move on to meet Moscow Mitch and Miss Lindsey!

When I personally watched HUGE bags being delivered by van to election offices in minn, and they had sent the observers home saying they were closing and then watched them putting ballots into the ballot counters I had MY doubts about election integrity and what Trump said doesn't matter. I saw the fraud myself. I know that 2020 election was tampered with, later some democrats were charged with fraud and are now in prison. Trump doesn't have to say anything to give people who pay attention doubts. It's all on video unless democrats, like they did with platforms, Send in FBI agents to intimidate them to remove and censor video proving democrats stole the election

Same game plan as in 2020:He knows a big loss is coming, so he starts spinning it as theft to avoid admitting defeat. He is a despicable excuse for a man who manipulates the hateful and gullible to the detriment of us all.

The party with the entire federal government under its control and yet .. complaining about elections.

Seems like fear tactics. Just let everyone vote how they want to vote. ❤

Trump is a loser and a threat to Americans. He needs to go.

Reminder. Trump publicly asked Russia to interfere in US elections.

What a waste of Primetime. They should have showed and now for something completely different.
