Former President Donald Trump wants a 2020 election do-over.
Alluding to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s revelation that Facebook throttled the Hunter Biden laptop story after receiving a warning from the FBI about Russian propaganda campaigns, Trump argued that the remedy is a new election or a declaration of “the rightful winner.”
Trump has long contended that the 2020 election was “rigged” or “stolen” after President Joe Biden beat him with 306 votes to Trump’s 232 in the 2020 Electoral College.
Oftentimes, Trump has raised disputed allegations of voter fraud to back his claims that the 2020 election was rigged. Election officials and the courts have roundly rejected such claims, and experts are quick to note there is no provision in the Constitution for an election do-over.
On Truth Social, Trump also contended that suppression of the laptop story amounted to “massive FRAUD & ELECTION INTERFERENCE at a level never seen before in our Country.” In an earlier post, he pondered when FBI employees would push back against the agency’s actions.
“When are the great Agents, and others, in the FBI going to say ‘we aren’t going to take it anymore,’ much as they did when James Comey read off a list of all of Crooked Hillary Clinton’s crimes, only to say that no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute,” he said.
Last week, Zuckerberg made headlines by recounting the FBI warning to podcast guru Joe Rogan. He also voiced regret for Facebook’s throttling of the New York Post’s story on the laptop in October 2020.
