Donald Trump Thinks The Election He Won Was Rigged

Just stop.

Another day, another incomprehensibly daft string of tweets from the soon-to-be most powerful man in the world.

Donald “Justpresssend” Trump is now claiming the election he just won was rigged, somehow managing to simultaneously tick the boxes of “sore winner”, “hard-done-by victim” and “conspiracy theorist”.

Trump is saying the election he won was rigged. He won and he’s still complaining.

In fact he’s actually making a solid argument for #AuditThe Vote, a recount called by the Green Party which Trump earlier in the day condemned. 

His transition team also rubbished the idea, saying in a statement on Saturday: “This is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded and the results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused.”

And what about the source?

Infowars. The same “news” source that believes the US Government has a “weather weapon” used to steer tornadoes and that the massacre of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook was a false-flag operation planned by Obama in order to further his gun control agenda.

And where did Infowars get their information from?

This tweet.

And that’s it.

Naturally, there is only one conclusion to draw from Trump’s tweet.
