LEADER JEFFRIES STATEMENT ON DONALD TRUMP’S DERANGED SPEECH

Today, Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries released the following statement:

Donald Trump has once again chosen to spew deliberate and dangerous lies because the economy is a disaster and he knows that the American people have had enough. He has cynically and corruptly decided to call into question our free and fair elections before a single ballot has been cast. Why? Republicans believe they need to cheat to win.

The strength of our democracy depends on every single American showing up to vote for a brighter future. Thankfully, the framers of the Constitution saw fit to have our elections administered at the state and local level, precisely to prevent them from being manipulated by an unhinged President.

House Democrats will continue the fight to lower costs, make healthcare more affordable and protect the integrity of our elections. Change is coming to the United States of America.
