US president Donald Trump on Sunday alleged that Democrats cheated in the 2020 elections and repeated the claim that they were “rigged and stolen”. He compared the alleged “cheating” to reports of NBA players cheating at cards, calling the election issue a “far bigger scandal .”
"What’s worse, the NBA Players cheating at cards, and probably much else, or the Democrats cheating on Elections. The 2020 Presidential Election, being Rigged and Stolen , is a far bigger SCANDAL," Trump said through a post on Truth Social.
Trump was referring to a major basketball scandal in which federal indictments alleged that current and former NBA players, including a Hall of Fame coach, were connected to Mafia-linked gambling rings.
He said the country suffered under President Joe Biden , whom he referred to as a “crooked moron,” and urged the Department of Justice to investigate the 2020 election.
Trump warned that similar issues could occur during future elections, including the upcoming midterms, if stricter voting measures were not implemented. He reiterated his opposition to mail-in and early voting and called for mandatory voter identification.
"I hope the DOJ pursues this with as much “gusto” as befitting the biggest SCANDAL in American history! If not, it will happen again, including the upcoming Midterms. No mail-in or “Early” Voting, Yes to Voter ID!" Trump said.
The US president further claimed that voting on California’s Proposition 50 is “totally dishonest,” alleging that “millions of ballots” are being “shipped” into the state.
Proposition 50, also known as the Election Rigging Response Act, seeks to amend the California Constitution and pause the work of the state’s independent redistricting commission until 2031. The measure would allow Democrats to redraw district boundaries, potentially creating five additional safe seats.
Earlier this year, Trump signed an executive order aimed at making broad changes to how elections are conducted, even though the Constitution grants that authority primarily to individual states. Portions of the order have since been blocked by the courts.
The Justice Department is currently requesting US states to provide voter information, including sensitive personal data such as partial Social Security numbers, as part of its effort to investigate potential cases of voter fraud, as cited by CNN .
