President Trump accused China of meddling in the 2020 elections and alleged a cover up by the US intelligence community in his primetime address to the nation Thursday night. Trump said, 'great damage has been done to our country.

Our elections were left vulnerable to being rigged and stolen, and the trust of the American people was lost,' and urged Congress to pass a the SAVE act, voter identification legislation backed by the president.
