Trump Open to National Security Emergency to Control 2026 Midterm Elections, Says CNN

President Donald Trump has declined to rule out declaring a national security emergency to exert more control over the 2026 midterm elections, a move that would give him significant powers to influence the outcome of the vote. The possibility of such an emergency is the latest development in Trump's efforts to shape the electoral process. Trump's comments come as he seeks to assert his dominance over the 2026 election and potentially alter the balance of power in Congress.
