Trump dug in on his false claims about voting, election fraud and his loss in the 2020 presidential election.
Here are the facts::
WHAT TRUMP SAID: “I won by like — they say I lost by like — I didn’t lose.”
THE FACTS: Trump did lose in 2020 to Democrat Joe Biden.
WHAT TRUMP SAID: “What happened is judges don’t want to touch it.
THE FACTS: Trump and his supporters lost more than 50 lawsuits trying to overturn the election.
WHAT TRUMP SAID: “We should go to paper ballots.”
THE FACTS: Almost all of the country already made that switch, however. In 2020, more than 90% of the election jurisdictions in the U.S. used paper ballots.
The only state not to use a voting system with paper ballots or a paper trail of any sort is Republican-run Louisiana.
WHAT TRUMP SAID: “They used COVID to cheat.”
THE FACTS: When the pandemic first hit during the 2020 presidential primary in March, Republican and Democratic election officials quickly switched to encourage mail voting to avoid crowded polls
