WASHINGTON, DC: From a podium in a Detroit suburb on Friday, June 14, Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump declared that the RNC and she are assembling a veritable army of 'over 100,000 poll watchers and over 500 lawyers' to 'deploy' at polling sites around the nation in November, according to the New York Post. 

Notably, these volunteers will be assigned three tasks: observing voters, observing the tallying of ballots, and suing any obstructionists.

Lara said, "I believe if we have a free, fair and transparent election that there’s no question we’ll all be going to bed early on November 5. And we’ll go to bed knowing Donald Trump is our next president."

When ballots are cast or counted, Lara Trump wants people to be 'in the room'. In addition, Lara sees countless groups of (remarkably free) volunteer lawyers ready to take legal action 'quick and effectively' in response to any opposition from local poll workers.

The volunteers gathered started 'training' as prospective vote observers after she finished speaking, using words like 'deploy' and 'battleground,' which were loaded with military connotations.

RNC co-chair Michael Whatley said, "Our people will be taught to be respectful and non-threatening but to also follow the law. Our biggest goals this year with the Trump campaign are to get out the vote and protect the ballot."

An attendee told the New York Post, "I’m convinced that the election was stolen in 2020, and I genuinely think if Joe Biden wins this one we will be heading towards World War Three. This isn’t just about protecting our votes, it’s about protecting our families."

Internet reacts to Lara Trump assembling veritable army to 'deploy' at polling sites

Several internet users sided with Lara Trump as she announced that RNC and she are assembling a veritable army of 'over 100,000 poll watchers and over 500 lawyers' to 'deploy' at polling sites around the nation in November.

A user wrote on X, "Good. Better to be safe than sorry. I don’t see anything wrong with extra precautions," while one added, "What a woman. We need a million poll watchers with cameras, plus a million lawyers."



 



 

A person also stated, "Holy s**t! A Republican actually doing something to protect elections? There’s a change," whereas one mentioned, "Smart. It’s about time somebody does this."



 



 

A user also wrote, "We need a bigger army than that. We have to go up against the US government. We need armed guards at all voting booths."
