Trump vows to crack down on election cheating, including VPs hiding a president's decline

As part of his campaign to take the Oval Office once again, former President Donald Trump has made promises that deal with not just the nation as a whole, but possible fraud within the executive branch.

Thanks to Trump's historic 2020 presidential race loss, the former president has had a break between his first term and possible second term, and he has used that time to make sure his position on the condition opposing party is crystal clear, and what he plans to do if he's reelected.

On Saturday, Trump made a commitment to carry out a historic crackdown on election cheating in the event that voters elect him to the White House, as Just The News reported.

This commitment includes the pursuit of expanding the 25th Amendment to include provisions that would punish a vice president who conceals from the American people an incapacitated president.

The Promise

During a speech that he gave in Mosinee, Wisconsin, President Trump attempted to make a veiled connection between the apparent mental decline of President Joe Biden and an alleged coverup by Vice President Kamala Harris, who succeeded Biden on the Democratic ticket.

The 45th president loudly declared that he supports changing the impeachment clause of the founding documents to permit the removal of a vice president who “lies or engages in a conspiracy to cover up the incapacity of the president of the United States.”

“If you do that with a coverup of the president of the United States, it’s grounds for impeachment immediately and removal from office, because that’s what they did,” the former president said.

Another Angle

Furthermore, in a separate post that he made on his TruthSocial platform, Trump stated that he was "watching the Sanctity of the 2024 Presidential Election very closely."

“WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again. We cannot let our Country further devolve into a Third World Nation, AND WE WON’T,” he said.

Trump went on to say that “legal exposure” would extend to “Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials.

“Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country,” he added.

Trump's Blowback

Since the 2020 election, the president and a number of his closest allies, including several attorneys, stood up to the election results, claiming that many of the results that favored Biden were false.

However, Trump and those who were most vocal in pushing for recounts and investigations into possible fraud have faced vehement prosecution by a Department of Justice run by the candidate who they accused of benefiting from cheating.

Prosecution, plea deals, and prison time have caused a calming of the calls for investigation into the 2020 election, and many are concerned no real change has taken place, setting the country up for a repeat of 2020 in 2024.
