While the president specifically singled out Russia, China, Iran and North Korea, I would argue that our concern must be global.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, of course, the president\u2019s allegations about the People\u2019s Republic of China not only need to be taken seriously; they need to be followed up on \u2014 by law enforcement and <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/us\/congress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">both chambers of Congress<\/a>. Indeed, the issue is not only whether foreign actors were able to rig the outcome of an election, but also whether malign actors, wherever they come from, attempted to intrude upon or influence a process that must remain sacrosanct.<\/p>\n<p>What the president\u2019s speech did not accomplish \u2014 nor, I believe, was that its main goal \u2014 was to influence the outcome of <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/elections\/midterm-elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the midterm elections<\/a> through a sustained policy argument. He did speak at the beginning of his address about economic growth, lower inflation and a stock market that has hit record highs. But there was no sustained argument about affordability, nor did he present any clear evidence that the war in Iran would be over soon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/shadow-government-trump-claims-intel-community-bragged-hiding-chinese-meddling\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>&#8216;SHADOW GOVERNMENT&#8217;: TRUMP CLAIMS INTEL COMMUNITY BRAGGED ABOUT HIDING CHINESE MEDDLING<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>What he did do was put election officials around the country on notice that the <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/harris-accuses-trump-allies-trying-rig-2026-midterms-virginia-court-tosses-redistricting-measure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2026 midterms<\/a> would face close scrutiny and that he would personally hold them accountable.<\/p>\n<p>The challenge for the president now is to develop a narrative for the midterms that underscores Republican successes domestically and internationally and argues that <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/us\/democratic-party\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Democratic Party<\/a>, particularly <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/opinion\/socialisms-rise-inside-democratic-party-threatens-american-dream\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">its socialist wing<\/a>, is unable to meaningfully improve American life.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/democrats-midterm-push-clouded-infighting-party-keeping-2024-autopsy-wraps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>DEMOCRATS\u2019 MIDTERM PUSH CLOUDED BY INFIGHTING OVER PARTY KEEPING 2024 AUTOPSY UNDER WRAPS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One other point is worth noting: We are experiencing a profound <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/push-oust-trump-exposes-cracks-among-democrats-strategy-timing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crisis of confidence<\/a> in our system of government.
