Trump has made it clear he will blame Michael Whatley, the RNC chair tasked with building the party's election integrity team, if he loses the election.
At a rally, Trump emphasized the pressure on Whatley, stating if he doesn't succeed in election integrity efforts, he will not be welcomed back in North Carolina.
The RNC's election integrity initiative, spearheaded by Whatley, involves 200,000 poll watchers and is prioritized over direct voter outreach efforts.
Trump's belief that his potential loss hinges on Whatley's performance in ensuring election integrity shows how deeply the former president's narrative is embedded in the GOP's identity.
