In the midst of a tense vote count and then both the president Donald trump like his democrat opponent Joe biden retain their respective partisan strongholds, the president spoke from the White House.
Before his supporters, he argued that “a very sad group of people is trying to disenfranchise” the “millions and millions of people” who have voted for him. “We are preparing for a great celebration,” he said.
“They can’t reach us”, assured the president regarding the states in which the votes are still being counted, such as North Carolina, Georgia and Pennsylvania. It also concluded that “Frankly, we won this election.”
“We want all voting to stop”, the president said, apparently alluding to the counting of mail-in ballots, which can be legally accepted by state polling stations after Tuesday, if they were sent on time.
Minutes earlier, the Republican advanced his speech on Twitter accusing the Democrats of trying to “steal these elections” without presenting evidence, in line with what he has been claiming for the past few months.
As a result of the above, the social network marked his message as misleading.
