BREAKING: Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reveals Donald Trump’s sinister sore loser plan to hit back after yesterday’s massive blue wave.
After a day of massive Republican losses in the off-year elections, Donald Trump is at it again — proving that when democracy wins, he’ll do anything to drag it down with him. This time, the former reality TV host turned authoritarian wannabe is reportedly drafting a new executive order to attack voting rights — especially mail-in ballots — based on, you guessed it, absolutely nothing.
The proposed executive order is particularly aimed at California, where the ballot initiative authorizing retaliatory congressional redistricting — in response to the Trump-inspired Texas redistricting — was passed by an overwhelming margin.
“The White House is working on an executive order to strengthen our elections in this country and to ensure that there cannot be blatant fraud, as we’ve seen in California with their universal mail-in voting system,” Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said today.
In the sore-loser fashion typical of the Trump administration, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt tried to claim that the California ballot measure’s success only came on account of fraudulent votes by ineligible non-citizens in a rigged election.
Leavitt claimed at a press conference today that: “Fraudulent ballots that are being mailed in, in the names of other people, in the names of illegal aliens who shouldn’t be voting in American elections. There’s countless examples, and we’d be happy to provide them.”
When asked for evidence of so-called “rampant fraud” in California, Leavitt offered the most MAGA answer imaginable: “It’s just a fact.”
That’s not how facts work, but in Trumpworld, evidence has been replaced by vibes, paranoia, and whatever pops up on Truth Social between rounds of golf and courtroom appearances.
Trump is now openly plotting to “strengthen our elections” — a phrase that, coming from him, means gutting mail-in voting, intimidating election workers, and silencing voters who don’t worship at the altar of MAGA. He’s been obsessed with mail-in ballots since they helped him lose fair and square in 2020, and now he’s recycling the same baseless lies that judges, investigators, and his own Justice Department have already shredded. But that’s never stopped him before.
Earlier on Truth Social, Trump threw another tantrum, calling California’s redistricting vote a “GIANT SCAM” and claiming the entire process was “RIGGED.” No evidence, no data — just the same frothing conspiracy nonsense that has become his trademark. And now, he’s preparing to enshrine that delusion into executive power, trying once again to criminalize voting itself.
Let’s be clear: this is not about “election integrity.” It’s about control. Trump’s team knows they can’t win when everyone votes, so their answer is to make sure fewer people can. His previous executive order tried to force states to demand proof of citizenship just to register to vote — a move a federal judge rightly blocked as unconstitutional. Now, he’s back for another bite at the same poisoned apple.
Legal experts and democracy defenders are already calling it what it is: a blatant power grab that would disenfranchise millions of Americans — especially voters of color, the elderly, people with disabilities, and working-class citizens who depend on mail-in ballots to make their voices heard.
The ACLU’s Sophia Lin Lakin didn’t mince words: Trump’s effort “threatens to disenfranchise tens of millions of eligible voters” and “intrudes on states’ constitutional authority.” Translation: Trump is once again trying to burn down democracy because he can’t stand the idea of losing fair and square.
Gavin Newsom called it out perfectly in a post on X, calling Trump’s rant “the ramblings of an old man who knows he’s about to lose.” California’s Secretary of State Shirley Weber reminded voters that “California elections have been validated by the courts,” and added that “California voters will not be deceived by someone who consistently makes desperate, unsubstantiated attempts to dissuade Americans from participating in our democracy.”
After Americans across the country headed to the polls — and delivered a stunning rebuke to MAGA incompetence and authoritarianism in races from Virginia to New York to California — Trump decided to remind the nation what he really fears: a free, fair, multiethnic democracy that doesn’t bow to him.
He can rant, he can rage, he can post “STAY TUNED” like a wannabe dictator teasing a coup — but the truth is simple. There’s no voter fraud crisis. The only fraud here is Trump pretending to care about democracy while plotting to dismantle it.
Every time he screams “rigged,” what he really means is “I’m losing.” And every time he threatens to use executive power to stop people from voting, it’s proof that he knows the American people have his number.
Trump doesn’t want to “protect” elections — he wants to own them. But in America, elections don’t belong to presidents. They belong to us. And no executive order, no tantrum, and no “it’s just a fact” gaslighting from the MAGA press room can change that.
