President Donald Trump took credit on Friday for making 2020 “the most secure election ever,” but still claims Democrats “rigged it.”
In a Twitter post, Trump declared, “For years the Dems have been preaching how unsafe and rigged our elections have been. Now they are saying what a wonderful job the Trump Administration did in making 2020 the most secure election ever.”
“Actually this is true, except for what the Democrats did. Rigged Election!” he added.

Social media users mocked Trump for the contradictions in the tweet.
Democrats say elections are rigged but I did a great job making sure they aren’t rigged. That said, the election that just happened was rigged. https://t.co/HqmpvjJQeJ
