Trump's Election Lies: Will he Send the Military to the Polls? - Glenn Kirschner
Donald Trump addressed the nation in primetime - though most networks refused to broadcast his speech live - to fill the public airwaves with long-debunked election lies.
In a truly remarkable self-own, Trump tried to convince everyone that China interfered in the 2020 election, but then he posted documents that signaled that it was Russia that tried to interfere in the 2020 election - in efforts to get TRUMP elected!
But there are serious concerns that Trump may try to send military troops to the polls during the midterm elections, or that he may try to have the military seize ballots and/or voting machines.
Military members must never lose sight of the fact that they took an oath of loyalty to the Constitution, not to a tyrant, a dictator, an autocrat or a president. Indeed, the survival of our republic depends on military members remembering and acting in accordance with that sworn oath, as this video discusses. - Glenn Kirschner - 07/17/2026.
