Sanders to Give Address on Trump’s ‘Threat to Democracy’

September 23, 2020

According to a press release, on Thursday Sen. Bernie Sanders will hold his first in-person event since the coronavirus outbreak to deliver a “major” address on President Trump’s “unique threat to our democracy.”

The event will be held Thursday, September 24, at George Washington University. Sanders’ speech will focus on the “unprecedented and dangerous moment” the country is in “right now given President Donald Trump’s unique threats to our democracy.”

The press release stated, “When asked in July if he would accept the results of the November election, Trump told Fox News, ‘I have to see.’ The president has questioned the legitimacy of mail-in voting, while his Postmaster General has worked to undermine the postal service. Despite being behind in almost every national poll and most battleground state polls, Trump told supporters last month that the only way he could lose is if the elect is ‘rigged.’ Trump has also threatened to delay the election. Sanders will put forward an agenda to ensure voters can cast their ballots safely and without intimidation, and that the results of the election will be honored,” it added.

Every sentence of this statement is either false or misleading, of course. It is the Democrats who have no intention of honoring the election results.
