Trump supporters claimed they are "coordinating" with the White House and circulated a 17-page executive order draft within circles, which argues that foreign (C) country interference in the 2020 election should be used to declare a national emergency, thereby paving the way for the president to exercise extraordinary powers over voting rules, including requiring voter identification, limiting or even banning mail-in voting, and labeling mail-in ballots and voting machines as "vessels of foreign interference." The White House refused to disclose Trump's specific plans. Peter Titchin, a Florida lawyer who promoted the draft, argued that the president can take emergency measures when perceiving "foreign influence," although he also admitted that elections are mainly managed by states and state legislatures according to the Constitution. The report pointed out that linking "foreign interference" with emergency executive power has drawn more attention to recent government actions to re-examine the security of the 2020 election: Trump has not accepted his defeat so far, but has also failed to present widespread evidence of fraud. The Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, is leading an investigation into election security, and officials said the focus is on foreign influence.
