Trump pledges 'Election Integrity Army' for 2026

politicsMay 10, 2026202,085

President Donald Trump vowed to deploy an "Election Integrity Army" in every state for the 2026 midterm elections, saying Republicans will protect votes and ensure secure results. He described the program as a nationwide network of Republican volunteers to monitor polling places and ballot handling, scaling up the Republican National Committee's recruitment of thousands of poll watchers in 2022. Organized, partisan monitoring at that scale has produced legal challenges, disputed results, and heightened risks of voter intimidation, so a nationwide deployment would reshape how states run and adjudicate elections.

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.

Texas Antifa Cyclone25

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

GregNJ24

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

JD Lion🇺🇸🇨🇦20

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.

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.

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 🙄.

asmrrmsa.bsky.social11

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.

🐸🖕🐸 Heartless Creatures11

Can @marcelias.bsky.social sue him for defamation?

The Gravy Seals will be everywhere?

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

pineypointg.bsky.social9

Maybe someday we’ll realize we’re at war

CLE7

Sounds like Nazi ICE voter suppression & threats.

Data4Miles7

We show up anyway. We vote.

M3T4TR0N7

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.

lindaisee.bsky.social7

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.

Dana Knows Insanity When She Sees It. 🥊🐸7

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

Davis X. Machina7

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

FeministSociologistPhD7

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.

Epstein files or bust 🇺🇦6

They better like getting their asses kicked.

Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister5

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

Joe in General5

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.

Sarah Birnbaum ❌👑5

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

"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

Paul4

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

rad uncle4

gonna chalk this one up to demented bluster

someonegrandma.bsky.social4

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.

The Captain4

We outnumber them 2:1. Let us have twice as many election integrity observers at every poll site in the nation.

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...

A Man Has No Name 🇺🇦3

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

Anthrogynous3

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

web_rant3

They know they are facing a blue tsunami in November so they will do all they can to suppress our votes with their gestapo members. bsky.app/profile/atru...

AMP3

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

🇲🇽🇨🇦🇺🇦 💪🏼👊🏼3

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

Joe Bacon3

Only a full blown asshole believes Senate Minority Leader Sideshow Bob is a Palestinian sympathizer…

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.

taylorbluer.bsky.social3

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

PorradaVFR3

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

💥 DEBBIE DINGER 🏳️‍⚧️3

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

CTPhipps3

Which is why they desperately want ICE to have a massive budget increase and why they're panicking over the fact they're not getting it.

Logic Thinker3

Exhibit A for voter intimidation.

SCROTUS3

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.

Serendipity3

Rage bait from the ChiefTroll in the White House

Mary Torgersen 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇬🇪3

Here we go … Who could have predicted this?

Big Hill 2 Climb3

Wow he is really scared! Good.

londondover.bsky.social3

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?

DreadPikathulhu3

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

lynn0908.bsky.social3

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.

Trump is a Russian asset3

So he admits the 2024 election was stolen.

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 🐸✊

mrblizzard301.bsky.social2

Simple arithmetic. More people voted against Trump than forhim.

Half-ass Matt2

They don't know the meaning of integrity.

Muthertree2

If Trump tries to run for a 3rd term, we should immediately announce an Obama/AOC ticket.

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 .

Bryan laverty2

Will they have uniforms? Black uniforms? And armbands? Red white and black armbands?

frauki68.bsky.social2

And I still think he historically manipulated the election 2024…

Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister2

What Army?? Republicans have no support in Democrat states

SavRTruthTiger 💙🌊🌊🌊💙2

“Thank you for your attention to this Mad Hatter.”

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

empowerppl.bsky.social2

I guess his election integrity includes blowing up ballot boxes & mailboxes like they did in Georgia.

Neil2

Biden kicked Trump's ass. Also, Trump abused children along with his pal Jeffrey Epstein. Everything else is just an old racist's ramblings.

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

ProudBlue💙2

omg …. If he just stuck with what they really would be, the S.S. He wouldn’t have to memorize so many letters …

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.

2A is a right. Voting is a right. I guess use it

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.

Cath RN, PhD2

Election Integrity Army? Is that like a Whiskey Pete, Keystone Kash, PeeWee Bovino, Giuliani, Matthew Calamari, Kraken brigade?

dmms66.bsky.social2

Why can’t he just go away already!?!?

demoskratia.bsky.social2

So obviously the election will be rigged. Good to know! 😖

Kristy💙☠️2

More interested in what is being done to combat it. Time is ticking. Should've happened in 2024.

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

Double C Tech2

Trump, You can not intimidate me! I will be voting with the intention of removing you from office so your corrupt and anti-American regime is dismantled. I stand with my fellow American people and not loyal to the government itself! You are the worst that humanity has to offer. F**k you, Chris C.

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.

pistachiowork.bsky.social2

Here's the question. If you're waiting in line and there are troops there, are they going to hold a gun to your head and force you to vote for the person they want to win? They're there for intimidation. Democrats just have to try very hard not to be intimidated.

Drawnder: Camilla Cash In🇵🇷2

"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" ... They did??? Did they? They did???

H. Perry Horton2

Yeah im not afraid of fat racists. Bring your pathetic "army."

Nina Rodham Clinton2

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

wvmitchell1.bsky.social2

So he's saying that the Republicans already did that in 2024 and that's why the swing states swung.

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.

hunjun.bsky.social2

Good grief, Trump is mad, mad, mad, as in the Madness of Knave Trump and IS completely undone. His corruption is out of control and will drive 'Orban' numbers to the polls, 80% turnout.

debm55.bsky.social2

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

26red2

He cheated. He has never in his 90 years on Earth won something without cheating

Greg McLaren2

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

Army is a specific choice
