Trump Doubles Down on Control Over U.S. Elections — What It Means For 2026 2/4/26

The mere thought of nationalizing elections is bringing outrage.  As the White House tries to backpedal, President Trump is doubling. Trump is now saying he thinks the federal government should “get involved” in elections that are full of “corruption." According to the "New York Times," if states “can’t count the votes legally and honestly, then somebody else should take over,” and  “Look at some of the places — that horrible corruption on elections — and the federal government should not allow that,” he added. “The federal government should get involved.”We discuss it with Presidential Historian and political analyst John Rothmann. Economic expert Phil Kerpen will join the conversation. 'It's the Planet, Stupid!' with our eco-journalist Belinda Waymouth. The Mark Thompson Show 2/4/26Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!
