Donald Trump has repeated false claims that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was “rigged” at least 107 times over the last six months, according to a review of his speeches, interviews and social media posts.
The remarks have remained a consistent feature of Trump’s public messaging even as his administration faces mounting pressure over foreign policy challenges, including tensions involving Iran, and prepares for critical midterm elections that could determine control of Congress.
Trump has raised the issue during campaign-style rallies, meetings with foreign leaders, White House events and online posts on Truth Social.
During one day in April alone, Trump reportedly posted allegations about the 2020 election seven separate times while diplomatic tensions with Iran were unfolding.
Trump has repeatedly alleged that widespread fraud cost him the 2020 election against former President Joe Biden.
However, multiple courts, election officials, audits and previous investigations found no evidence of widespread voter fraud capable of altering the election outcome.
Even so, Trump has continued to frame the election as illegitimate, including during public appearances at the World Economic Forum and recent White House events.
