He said the 2016 election was rigged if he didn't win.

He falsely claimed there were 3 million illegal votes that cost him the popular vote in 2016.

He started talking about the 2020 election being rigged long before November.

And, he also claims the Georgia runoff election was rigged too. That was part of his speech before the riot.

This idiot has a pattern. He lies. His followers eat the lie, and it is destroying our country.

The thing that amazes me is the group think that enables his followers to be fooled so much.
