Trump's own Truth Social post, archived by trumpstruth.org, directly describes New Mexico as 'one of the great vote cheating states of all time.'

Source 4 (trumpstruth.org) archives Trump's exact original post from September 6, 2026, stating New Mexico is 'one of the great vote cheating states of all time,' which directly matches the claim's characterization. This is corroborated by KOAT (Source 3) and other outlets noting Trump has repeatedly called New Mexico's elections 'corrupt.' The claim accurately reflects Trump's own words as documented in the primary archival source.
