India, July 17 -- Donald Trump Primetime Live Update: President Donald Trump used a nationally televised primetime address on Thursday night to make sweeping allegations about the 2020 U.S. presidential election, claiming China attempted to interfere in the vote while members of the U.S. intelligence community concealed key information from him. Speaking from the White House, Trump announced that he had directed the Department of Justice (DOJ), the FBI, and the CIA to investigate what he described as a "deep state" cover-up.

The speech came just months before the U.S. midterm elections and immediately sparked renewed debate over election security and foreign interference.
