In a Truth Social post on Saturday, Trump decried alleged “rampant cheating and skullduggery” in the 2020 election and said he would pursue prosecutions of those who allegedly cheated “to the fullest extent of the law,” including “long term prison sentences.”

“CEASE & DESIST: I, together with many Attorneys and Legal Scholars, am watching the Sanctity of the 2024 Presidential Election very closely because I know, better than most, the rampant Cheating and Skullduggery that has taken place by the Democrats in the 2020 Presidential Election. It was a Disgrace to our Nation,” he said.

“Therefore, the 2024 Election, where Votes have just started being cast, will be under the closest professional scrutiny and, WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again,” he continued.

Trump went on to add that the scope of the threatened legal action would extend to “Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials.”

The comments come after Trump held a rally in Mosinee, Wisconsin, in which he made his oft-repeated claim that the 2020 election was stolen.

“We got to stop the cheating. If we stop that cheating, if we don’t let them cheat, I don’t even have to campaign anymore we’re going to win by so much. In the meantime, too big to rig, too big to rig,” he said.

Republicans have also made illegal voting a priority this election season, leading to the House of Representatives passing the SAVE Act in July, which seeks to prevent noncitizens from voting by requiring proof of citizenship before registering to vote. That bill was introduced by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) after Johnson met with Trump to discuss election integrity concerns.
