President Donald Trump said during his early Friday address that China stole data on 220 million American voters and accused US intelligence of downplaying the interference. He also asserted that the United States is 'winning big' against Iran and that the fruits of victory will be reaped 'very soon,' according to N12.
In his ongoing address to the nation, President Donald Trump made two major claims early Friday. He alleged that China stole voter data on 220 million Americans and accused U.S. intelligence agencies of downplaying the interference, as reported by N12. Separately, he declared that the United States is 'winning big' against Iran and that victory will come 'very soon.' The comments follow a series of statements from the president earlier in the speech, including the arrest of a foreign opposition cell and accusations of deep state complicity. The address, which began around 04:16 Jerusalem time, has seen Trump making multiple assertions about foreign interference and military achievements. The Zioneer previously reported on the China voter data claim at 04:39 and the Iran statement at 04:36. The president's remarks have not been independently verified, and no official documentation has been released.
