Critics astounded as Trump injects 'absolute total chaos' into midterms: 'Here we go'
Critics of President Donald Trump were astounded by his latest move to sway the 2026 midterm elections.
On Thursday, reports indicated that Trump fired the three remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission, an independent agency that is responsible for helping states administer elections. The move occurred after the Supreme Court ruled that the president has the power to remove officers of certain independent agencies. It also happened just about 100 days away from the midterm election.
The move sparked a firestorm of criticism online.
"Absolute total chaos. Thanks SCOTUS," Jim Stewartson, a political writer, wrote to his more than 150,000 followers on X.
"Here we go…" posted Mike Madrid, a GOP political consultant with more than 148,000 followers on X.
"Donald Trump isn’t going to get his voter suppression bill passed, so he’s undermining the integrity of our elections by gutting the independent agency that oversees them," Melanie D'Arrigo, executive director of the Campaign for New York Health, who has more than 89,000 followers on X, posted on Thursday.
