LIVE: President Trump address to nation

This video features an address by Donald Trump, broadcast by FOX 5 Atlanta on July 17, 2026. In the speech, he asserts that the United States has improved significantly in various areas over

the past two years, including economic growth, border security, and military strength.

A major focus of the address is the claim that the current U.S. election system is vulnerable to forei

gn interference, hacking, and fraud. He announces the declassification and release of documents, available at whitehouse.gov, which he states reveal significant risks to election infrastruct

ure.

The core allegations and points covered in the speech include:

Foreign Interference: He claims that the People's Republic of China has illicitly acquired 220 million U.S. voter files an

d attempted to undermine his previous administration.

Data Suppression: He alleges that members of U.S. intelligence agencies intentionally suppressed and hid information regarding China's e

lection meddling.

Vulnerability of Voting Systems: He argues that electronic voting machines and ballot counting systems are highly susceptible to manipulation.

Allegations of Fraud: He refe

rences investigations into alleged voter registration fraud, specifically mentioning an operation in Michigan.

Non-Citizen Registration: He cites a Department of Homeland Security review ide

ntifying approximately 278,000 non-citizens registered to vote.

To address these concerns, he calls on Congress to pass the "Save America Act." He outlines the key provisions of this propose

d legislation in the table below:

+-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+

| Requirement | Description

|

+-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+

| Photo Voter ID | All voters must provide photo identifi

cation. |

+-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+

| Proof of Citizenship | All voters must provide proof of citizenship

. |

+-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+

| Limits on Mail-in Ballots | Prohibit mail-in ballots except for specific excep

tions |

| | (illness, disability, military, or travel). |

+-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------

He concludes by asking Americans to contact their representatives to support this legislation and pledges that his administration will work to mitigate the identified security risks and

remove ineligible voters from registration lists [33:01].
