Trump Press Secretary Claims Campaign Will Have ‘Soldiers’ Watching Polling Stations on Election Day

[Polds4OSU]

Former President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, claimed on Monday that the Trump campaign would deploy “soldiers” to monitor polling stations on election day in an effort to make sure “there are no irregularities” or “fraud.”

During an appearance on The Kimberly Guilfoyle Show, Leavitt told host Kimberly Guilfoyle:

We’re so excited about our recent merger with the Republican National Committee and the new leadership we have there in both Lara Trump and Michael Whatley. Our team is already working hand-in-hand with the staff at the RNC as one very lean and mean machine, as we like to call it, with one goal, and that goal is victory for Republicans up and down the ballot on November 5th.
We have the team, now it’s time to deploy the troops on the ground. We have an amazing volunteer-led effort right now in all of the battleground states, in addition to our great paid staff who will be making direct voter contact every single hour of every day between now and November 5th to get out the vote. A large part of this is also educating voters on the laws within their state. If you live in an early voting state, we encourage you to get out and vote early, cast your ballot. You don’t know what could happen to you on election day.
And then we’re also investing a lot of money into voter integrity efforts to ensure that every American knows their ballot will be cast and counted and matter, and we’re gonna play offense this time around. We’re not gonna play defense like we unfortunately did in 2020. We’re gonna have soldiers, poll watchers on the ground who are making sure that there are no irregularities and fraud like we saw in the last election cycle.

Guilfoyle replied, “I love it. I cannot wait. It’s gonna be fantastic.”

In 2020, Trump urged his supporters to independently monitor polling stations for evidence of fraud.

Exactly how is a former president going to deploy soldiers? Or does he mean "soldiers"? Gravy Seals pulling up to polling stations. SMH.

My guess is gravy seals dressed in Confederate flag shirts with Duck Dynasty beards and missing teeth. Sarcasm!!!

Multiple live video cameras along with Democrats, Republicans and Independents watching each other are all the security needed at the polls, especially in the close battleground states.

Pretty sure he is referring to his MAGAts and its more intimidation than anything else.

Wonder if they’ll wear black or brown shirts?

That's exactly what he means. "Gravy Seals" is pretty awesome tag, btw. Kudos.

Trump spokesperson clearly wasn't speaking about U.S. Soldiers. No need to sensationalize or engage in even more hyperbole than has already been used. Honestly, your reaction is probably what they are looking for. It's bait for reaction. Nothing more.

She clearly is.
