President Donald Trump’s speech Thursday night on election administration surprised me. He didn’t relitigate the 2020 election (although he did say we “can never watch a stolen election again”). He didn’t attack Georgia’s elections, as many had predicted. He had some criticisms of election administrators, but many more criticisms of his first term’s national security and law enforcement teams (it’s safe to say Trump hates Chris Krebs, his former director of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure).
