Even though the 2020 election was almost four years ago and he lost in a popular and electoral vote landslide, failed one-term former president Donald Trump is now claiming that 8 in 10 Americans believe the last presidential election was stolen from him.
Speaking over the weekend in North Carolina, HuffPost reports, Trump let loose with this bit of absolute nonsense:
“What happened at that last election is a disgrace, and we’re not going to let it happen again. Did you ever notice they go after the people that want to find out where the cheating was — and, by the way, 82% of the country understands that it was a rigged election, OK? You can’t have a country with that.”
He continued, “A poll came out, 82% ― but they go after the people — they don’t go after the people that rigged the election — they go after the people that looking, they’re looking for the people that rigged the election. And that’s the people they go after. They got away with something; they’re never going to get away with it again.”
What does polling say about the 2020 election and Donald’s allegations of cheating?
A Washington Post survey from January shows that only 33% of respondents say there was widespread voter fraud in 2020.
As usual, Trump’s numbers are all screwed up, and he simply cannot admit that he’s a loser. But he is, and that’s how history will record him.
