Kamala won! Trump cheated in 2016, 2020, and 2024. We've heard the tapes, and Putin admitted helping him. DOJ, act now!

This statement is not accurate and reflects an opinion rather than factual evidence. Claims that Trump cheated in 2016, 2020, and 2024 lack substantiated proof, and if he had cheated in 2020, he would not have lost that election. Additionally, Kamala Harris did not secure enough votes to win the 2024 presidential election, as certified results show.

This is not a true statement and is based on an opinion from someone on the social media platform 'X'. They seem to be left-leaning, but their own claim contradicts their message. If Trump cheated in 2020, he would not have lost. Harris did not receive enough votes to win the 2024 election. This resource shows how many votes each candidate received and from which states.

I appreciate your correction here. The post contradicts itself by including the 2020 election in its claim, so your insight and inclusion of credible sourcing is valuable.

The claim that "Kamala won" the election is false, and the assertion that Trump "cheated" in 2016, 2020, and 2024 is not supported by credible evidence or legal findings, as investigations into election fraud in those years have not uncovered widespread misconduct that would have altered the outcomes. While there have been discussions about foreign interference (particularly from Russia in 2016 via Facebook), no conclusive evidence has emerged to suggest that Trump's victories were the result of cheating, and allegations of election fraud in 2020 and 2024 have been repeatedly debunked or dismissed in courts. Additionally, this is a misleading claim and cannot be true as Vice President Harris conceded the election the next day, as covered by the Associated Press, and called Mr. Trump saying that “they will engage in a peaceful transfer of power.”

For starters, the claim, "Kamala won! Trump cheated in 2016, 2020, and 2024. We've heard the tapes, and Putin admitted helping him. DOJ, act now", is 100% false. We fully understand the context by digging deeper and reading the full claim via Blue Sky. From the UPPERCASE letters to the exclamation point, this individual appears upset. They start by mentioning how Trump rigged the 2016, 2020, and 2024 elections and Kamala should have won. According to the Mueller report in 2016, while there was Russian interference, there wasn't concrete evidence to back this up. Putin's support for Trump was also misinterpreted. Sure, he said he preferred Trump to be elected, but he never "admitted" to helping him. As for the 2020 elections, PBS fact-checked the "rigged" claims, and here's what they had to say, "Across the country, Trump and his allies lost more than 60 lawsuits challenging the 2020 election outcome." As of right now, we don't have any information certifying the claim. The claim then goes on a tangent and mentions Trump's threats to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Although these calls were already analyzed and deemed as allegations, this has zero correlation to Kamala winning and Trump cheating. Lastly, they mention his criminal record. While the 34 felonies and counting are still active, these charges are unrelated to claims of election interference in 2016, 2020, or 2024.
