Trump says he has already won states like Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina where a result has not yet been presented, but that “they continue to find votes by mail.
He then went on to accuse Democrats of voter fraud and corruption, but without giving any proof.
“We won all the key states and suddenly our numbers miraculously started to decline,” Trump said during the press conference.
– This is a case when they try to steal an election. They are trying to manipulate the elections.
Criticism from Republicans

– That the president claims it without any proof is dangerous.
