Trump pledges 'Election Integrity Army' for 2026

politicsMay 10, 2026261,202

President Donald Trump announced he will deploy an "Election Integrity Army" in every state for the 2026 midterm elections. Trump said Republicans already had an Election Integrity Army in every state during the 2024 election and promised the 2026 version will be "much bigger and stronger." Trump framed the operation as a way for Republicans to protect votes and preserve "the sanctity of each legal vote." The pledge could increase Republican monitoring, prompt more legal challenges, and heighten tensions at polling places, affecting how elections are administered and perceived.

Trump says Republicans will have an “Election Integrity Army in every single State” this November

Palestinian Chuck Schumer is hiring Eric Holder, famous for handing guns to Mexican cartels under the Barack Hussein Obama administration, as part of a Democrat-led "Election Integrity Group" that will no doubt try to suppress Republican voters, and interfere in our Elections. Furthermore, Marc Elias, a terrible lawyer with a horrible track record, is also involved. This is the same disgusting individual who was responsible for the fake Russia dossier from a foreign nation to meddle in the 2016 Election, which I won in historic fashion. The Democrats are totally unhinged and we will not allow them to threaten the integrity of our Elections.

During my Historic Election in 2024, when I won every single Swing State, and decisively won both the Electoral and Popular votes by wide margins, the Republicans had an Election Integrity Army in every single State to preserve the sanctity of each legal vote. We will be doing the same again in 2026, but it will be much bigger and stronger. All Americans should have their voices be heard by casting a vote. Be assured this Election will be fair! President DONALD J. TRUMP

What?!?! Okay America this has gone far enough.

Nothing to see, just the President inciting civil war on a Sunday.

He’s so awful at planning everything that I don’t see this “army” being effective either.

GregNJ19

I don’t care if they point a gun at my head. I am voting.

Patric Reynolds19

So a bunch of doughy, aggro paramilitary trolls who all work for a president with a murder fetish will be at every voting location. What could possibly go wrong?

JD Lion🇺🇸🇨🇦15

It's cool, man. I'm gonna go vote and they can stare me down all they want.

When you "win" an election by lying, fraud, misrepresentation, misinformation and miseducation, combined with theater tricks, it's the same as rigging an election.

We show up anyway. We vote.

He’s threatening to cheat just like he did last time! No more Mr & Ms nice guy, America!! 😡

wvmitchell1.bsky.social7

Marc Elias went 63-1 against Trump campaign lawsuits contesting the 2020 election results and has won four cases argued before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Davis X. Machina7

All he's going to do is unleash thousands of Will Stancils. For neighbors then, for ballots now.

CLE6

Sounds like Nazi ICE voter suppression & threats.

Scott6

Quick reminder that Donald Trump's Approval Rating is 33%, and he's well aware that the only way his party can prevail in November is by cheating 🙄.

lindaisee.bsky.social6

Republicans will not even ALLOW elections. They will merely declare Republicans won every election and the corrupt Supreme Court, Congress, and trump will agree. Then they will tear gas and kill those of us who dare to take to the streets to complain. This is what Republican autocracy looks like.

FeministSociologistPhD6

Big 👏 👏 to @ericholder.bsky.social who clearly lives rent-free in that degenerating nasty head! P.S. From here on in, Every seat, every win by "them" will be questioned as illegitimate.

LisaTheLiberal 🦋6

The Trump Regime has no idea of the fire they lit to conquer them. The sleeping giant is going to swallow and spit.

Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister5

It sounds like Trump is going to make Washington DC and Puerto Rico states

Epstein files or bust 🇺🇦5

They better like getting their asses kicked.

M3T4TR0N5

See! He had an army in every state to ensure he’d win. That’s why he wanted Tina Peters out. He cheated and he’s going to do it again.

Dana Knows Insanity When She Sees It. 🥊🐸5

Did he win all of the swing states in 2024 though? 😬

"During my Historic Election in 2024, when I won every single Swing State, and decisively won both the Electoral and Popular votes by wide margins, the Republicans had an Election Integrity Army in every single State to preserve the sanctity of each legal vote." See, stuff like this has me again/1

I will flip them off at the polls as I vote for Democrats ,then moon them and say “kiss my ass MAGA fucks”

Joe in General4

Mofo did not win popular vote. He cheated his way to an electoral majority. I wish today and every day for a great fiery chasm in the earth to open beneath him.

rad uncle4

gonna chalk this one up to demented bluster

Sarah Birnbaum ❌👑4

Big talk from a guy who couldn't even get Minneapolis to knuckle under and had to slink away.

sonny1471.bsky.social4

And we’ll have an army of blue voters to snatch power from their fascist little hands and start holding them accountable for their bullshit.

ElegantPride3

trump and "election integrity" is an oxymoron. As he constantly berates all people & entities that pointed out his past electoral "cheating" defending himself and his cabal as completely guiltless... May he be reminded... www.acslaw.org/projects/the...

Anthrogynous3

Oh my god he’s insecure. He probably didn’t even write this and he’s so insecure.

asmrrmsa.bsky.social3

Trump is telegraphing that he doesn’t plan to have free and fair elections starting in ‘26. Democrats and true Americans need to mobilize and overwhelm his efforts this fall. If Hungary can defeat an authoritarian, I have to believe America can too.

A Travis-T3

Sounds bad and it is potentially bad but he's been saying this shit every election and midterm year since he was first elected.

Serendipity3

Rage bait from the ChiefTroll in the White House

Mary Torgersen 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇬🇪3

Here we go … Who could have predicted this?

someonegrandma.bsky.social3

EVERY time he says he won by a huge margin/landslide/won the popular vote SOMEONE must remind him (and America) of what's real.

DreadPikathulhu3

He will lose. Angry voters will climb right over any army that prevents them from casting their ballot.

Sally Ann3

Projection at its best...His synapses stopped clicking a looong time ago.

SmokeyStafford3

He means he will be enabling white supremacist groups, ICE and the Texas and Florida National Guard to interrogate and intimidate POC voters at ballot boxes and booths in every swing state and every Blue state. We've been expecting this. #AMPHIFA 🐸✊

sonny1471.bsky.social3

Oh, so he’s also saying this election will be “fair” so when the GOP loses their majority, he better not cry that it was rigged. Hint: he will anyway.

Dr. Alex Cooney, Ph.D.3

Translation: Trump will have voter intimidation thugs depressing the Democrat vote.

KChevy 🇨🇦🌈🌿🌎3

Republicans and “election integrity“ in the same sentence is some special kind of bullshit.

mrblizzard301.bsky.social2

Simple arithmetic. More people voted against Trump than forhim.

Half-ass Matt2

They don't know the meaning of integrity.

Anastacya2

This has been part of the plan all along. They can't keep power with just one terrible antidemocratic maneuver alone, they need gerrymandering, voter disenfranchisement, and finally voter intimidation.

Julie Bee🐝🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸2

Why isn’t every politician and media responding hourly in a similar but factual fashion to the world with a decade of these posts? His constant repetition of lies gets the attention and becomes “credible” to his supporters. Normalizing this just because 77 Million MAGA do, is a problem in the USA .

A Man Has No Name 🇺🇦2

“The Democrats are totally unhinged…” is my favorite part.

Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister2

What Army?? Republicans have no support in Democrat states

cozybooksonly.bsky.social2

This is the mind of a very sick person. What we can do is help the 9 southern states under attack. We are not going back to Jim Crow. Every dollar helps.

moth2

an “election integrity army” is just a voter intimidation squad. we all know who they’ll be targeting. if you can, sign up to be a poll worker or observer in your county right now—they’re recruiting, and we need people inside the process

AMP2

And this is exactly why I’ve signed up to train as a poll watcher.

🇲🇽🇨🇦🇺🇦 💪🏼👊🏼2

He “won” the swing states cuz Muskrat manipulated the votes. Musk admitted it!

oldcc.bsky.social2

Well there it is Something to ruin mother's Day from Trump He's trying to incite Civil War Nothing like it My God

Carlee's Dad2

Fun Fact 1: Art. I, Sec. 4, Cl. 1 of the Constitutions says states control elections. Nowhere in Art. II (executive branch) is any mention of election admin. Fun Fact 2: There is in fact an "Election Integrity Army:" The close to 2 million election workers spread over 175K polling places.

In other words, Ice is coming to the elections near you.

magabuster.bsky.social2

Sounds scary - but we also know Team Trump is (fortunately) very lousy at execution. Methinks this is just bluster.

taylorbluer.bsky.social2

Would you have ever believed we would have a president that writes trash like this?

dmms66.bsky.social2

Why can’t he just go away already!?!?

PorradaVFR2

Voters in VA cast their votes and this dipshit was celebrating a court overturning their will. What a joke.

💥 DEBBIE DINGER 🏳️‍⚧️2

what yall think all that ICE funding about facial recognition scanning was actually about immigration?????🤣 🤣 🤣

Logic Thinker2

Exhibit A for voter intimidation.

Ernie03262

People need to walk THROUGH those a-holes if they try to stop people from voting. Local police need to keep an eye on those "EIA" fools & arrest any of them who break the law. PERIOD!!

Mountain girl2

Yes! There will be FAIR elections this year, but they will have *NOTHING* to do with you or your goon squad! #RepublicanGoonSquads

BigFatSammiches2

This isn't gonna end well for anyone

iloveitaly52.bsky.social2

He gets worse and not one repug cares. I used to think there was a good one but other that Massey I don’t think so.

SCROTUS2

Okay but if we're not doing mail-in voting that's going to require the entire 30% of Americans who allegedly support the President and I really don't think that's either plausible or possible.

Nina Rodham Clinton2

Well, like most of his plans, it'll probably be a big fat failure of execution. We can hope for that.

plainswomanog.bsky.social2

I'm an election worker that supervises multiple polling sites. That "army" was poorly trained, but rabidly aggressive about procedures they knew nothing about. Not looking forward to November and dealing with another set of these goons.

londondover.bsky.social2

Can this threat or statement be challenged in court before it happens in the midterms? How about it, anyone know? I assume Trump would use his ICE storm troopers as his Election Integrity Army in every state. SCOTUS aren't States are in charge of elections and not the Federal Government?

debm55.bsky.social2

Absolutely NOT. He has zero role in elections. States have that power.

Greg McLaren2

In Australia's turgid national anthem, 'Advance Australia Fair', 'fair' at the time of composition was a reference to whiteness, not equity.

lynn0908.bsky.social2

They can’t even get enough bodies to staff ice. More ramblings of a demented moron. He knows they are fucked come mid terms and he’s panicking. He’s single-handedly destroying the Republican Party and Republican sit watching it happen.

andreamartinatx.bsky.social2

Army is a specific choice

Viv Jackson2

“Army”? Somebody preparing for a war?

ts138789.bsky.social2

Don’t miss what preceded that stmt! He claims that the GOP already had an “Election Integrity Army in every single state” in 2024!! Did the media cover this in 24???? It sounds like they should have.

Bogart Lives2

I will not matter. The nation will throw out the trash. Of course the pricator will cheat, lie and scam before, during and after the election.

I have Trust Issues about the validity of this unjust war.2

Narrator: the election was not fair, nor was there integrity involved. Donald Trump declared Republicans the winner before 34% of the vote was tallied and upon an %80 completion of votes a majority Democratic wins, he declared that cheating was involved and ordered those votes thrown out.
