Donald Trump’s CNN Town Hall Begins With Kaitlan Collins’ Challenge To His Claim That The 2020 Election Was “Rigged”

Donald Trump’s return to CNN for a town hall began with moderator Kaitlan Collins trying to challenge the former president on his claim that the 2020 presidential election was “rigged.” Trump called those who accepted the results “very stupid” while launching into a fusillade of unfounded and debunked claims that cameras captured voter fraud.

Collins said, “Mr. President, to what you just said there, though, it was not a rigged election. It was not a stolen election.

You and your supporters lost more than 60 court cases on the election. It’s been nearly two and a half years. Can you publicly acknowledge that you didn’t lose the 2020?” He did not, but instead went into claims that there was widespread fraud and “they found millions of votes on camera on government cameras where they were stuffing ballot boxes.” When Collins said that there was no evidence of election fraud, Trump said, “You’re supposed to say that.” Trump went on to make the election claims but, as he tends to do, veered into a whole host of different issues.

Collins even pointed out that his own campaign paid for a recount in Wisconsin that showed that Joe Biden actually got more votes, but Trump wouldn’t back away from his claim that votes were stolen.
