but most of them have already congratulated BidenDonald Trump on Sunday suggested that world leaders are backing up his unsubstantiated claim of election fraud, despite several of them having already congratulated President-elect Joe Biden on the victory weeks ago.
"You have leaders of countries that call me and say, 'That's the most messed up election we've ever seen,'" he said, speaking to Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo.
Trump did not offer evidence to back up his claim that leaders called him and expressed their support. Additionally, the White House has not released any transcripts of such conversations.
Immediately after Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential race, several world leaders either made contact with or congratulated him on his victory. Among them was Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who had previously tethered himself to Trump and has come to be regarded as one of his closest international allies.

(5,125 posts)My take away from the article:
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro -- sexist, racist pig burning up the Amazon
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán -- fascist, media stomping autocrat
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi -- wants to get rid of Muslims
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte -- the "thousands of extrajudicial killings " Duterte sanctioned in his "war on drugs" bothered Obama, but not tRump. Go figure. Human Rights? Journalistic Freedom? What are those?
