In a newly released audio recording, former President Donald Trump can be heard stating that he believes he lost the 2020 election. However, he quickly backtracked on this statement. The audio, recorded during an interview with Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Robert Costa for their upcoming book “Peril,” captures Trump expressing doubt about the legitimacy of the election results.
Despite numerous baseless claims of voter fraud and widespread election rigging made by Trump and his supporters, multiple audits and recounts have confirmed President Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election. In the audio, Trump can be heard acknowledging his defeat, stating, “This election was rigged, and I’m not supposed to say it. But I have to say it.”
This revelation comes as Trump continues to tease the possibility of running for president again in 2024, fueling speculation about his intentions and potential impact on the Republican Party. The audio recording sheds new light on Trump’s inner thoughts and conflicting statements regarding his election loss.
As the 2022 midterm elections approach, Trump’s continued influence within the GOP and his refusal to accept the results of the 2020 election are sure to remain key issues within the political landscape. Stay tuned for further developments as we delve deeper into the implications of this latest revelation.
