At the approach of President Trump’s prime time address to the nation on Thursday, former senior FBI and intelligence officials told the Daily Beast that what he touts as a speech emphasizing the importance of “free and fair elections” will, in fact, be part of an attack on democracy itself.
Trump has announced a 9 p.m. Thursday speech, demanding TV network air time—which they have yet to promise—on what he claims will be a matter of national importance. But to those who have worked at the pinnacle of law enforcement, something else is afoot.
“If I was still working a terrorism investigation and a network started coming together and getting into key positions and they started gathering the information and the materials that they needed to carry out a plot, those are things we would call ‘warnings and indicators,’” a retired and profoundly worried FBI official told The Daily Beast.
