Donald Trump has released a 46-minute video in which he called for the “rigged” election to be overturned.
In the long rant that was shared on his Facebook page, the president suggested this might be his most important speech ever made as he doubled down on his allegations of voter fraud during the 2020 election.
As Trump suggested when he called on the Supreme Court to intervene, the election results in multiple states should be “overturned.”
“This election was rigged. Everyone knows it. I don’t mind if I lose an election, but I want to lose an election fair and square. What I don’t want to do is have it stolen from the American people,” he argued.
Throughout his speech, the president made a series of allegations as he claimed that dead people voted and that corruption played a role in the election.
“If we are right about the fraud, Joe Biden can’t be president,” Trump insisted.
As the president boldly claimed, it was “statistically impossible” for him not to win the election.
“It is statistically impossible that the person – me – that led the charge lost.point 80 | The greatest pollsters, the real pollsters – not the ones that had us down 17 points in Wisconsin when we actually won, while the ones that had us down four or five points in Florida and we won by many points or had us even down in Texas, and we won by a lot – not those pollsters but real pollsters that are fair and honest, said ‘We can’t understand a thing like this: it’s never happened before you led the country to victory and you were the only one that was lost.point 475 |

As the president went on to say without any proof, “the media and even judges” refuse to accept his alleged win even though “they know who won the election.”
Calling the election “a total catastrophe,” Trump insisted the election has to be overturned due to “fraudulent” activities.
“Some people say that’s too far out. That’s too harsh. Well does that mean we take a president and we’ve just elected a president, where the votes were fraudulent? No. It means you have to turn over the election,” he said.
The president’s long speech follows shortly after Attorney General Bill Barr, who is a Republican, contradicted the president by confirming that the Justice Department hadn’t found any evidence implying there was widespread voter fraud.
“To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election,” Barr told The Associated Press.
