Trump briefly admits election defeat, clings to legal strategy

(VOVWORLD) - President Donald Trump on Sunday briefly acknowledged losing the US election in a morning Twitter post but then backtracked, saying he concedes “nothing” and vowing to keep up a court fight that election-law experts say is unlikely to succeed.

“He won because the Election was Rigged,” Mr. Trump wrote, not referring to Biden by name, adding a list of complaints about vote counting.

About 90 minutes later, Mr. Trump wrote his challenger only won in the eyes of the fake news and he, as the President, concedes nothing. He also said on Twitter he would soon file “big cases showing the unconstitutionality of the 2020 Election.”

Mr. Trump’s campaign has filed lawsuits seeking to overturn the results in multiple states.

As of last Friday, all 50 US states had completed counting votes for the 2020 presidential election.

Media have announced that Joe Biden won 306 electoral votes to President Trump’s 232. To become President of the United States, a candidate must win a minimum of 270 out of 538 electoral votes.
