President Trump attacked Colorado officials after election worker Tina Peters was jailed for 2020 election interference, which he can't pardon.

🧩 Simple Version
President Trump was very upset with Colorado's Governor and a district attorney. He even said they should "rot in hell"! He was mad because a lady named Tina Peters is in jail.
Tina Peters got a nine-year sentence for messing with election computers back in 2020. She let someone access special election software without permission.
🚨 How Fox Would Spin It
"Get ready, patriots! President Trump is bravely fighting the Deep State's wicked plots in Colorado! They're locking up innocent grandmas, true American heroes like Tina Peters, for simply wanting fair elections!"
"It's a witch hunt, folks! The liberal establishment and their 'RINO' buddies are stealing our elections. They throw patriots in prison while the *real criminals* get away! Trump is saying what everyone thinks: 'Rot in hell!' to these villains!"
🌿 DeFoxed Reality Check
Okay, let's untangle this spaghetti! President Trump got super angry. He used very strong words for Colorado's Governor and a local prosecutor because Tina Peters is in prison.
Tina Peters was an election worker who let an unauthorized person access voting machine software in 2020. The courts found her guilty of several state-level crimes, like "attempting to influence a public servant." She received a nine-year jail sentence.
Mr. Trump thinks she was stopping cheaters and even claimed he "pardoned" her. But here's the tricky part: a President can only pardon federal crimes. Tina Peters' crimes were state-level, so Mr. Trump's pardon doesn't work. It's like trying to use a remote control for a TV on a radio – it just won't work!
💡 Why This Matters
This is important because everyone needs to understand how pardons work.
It also shows how discussions about past elections can still be quite heated, even after court decisions.
Keeping elections safe means following the rules, and there are consequences when those rules are broken by anyone.
