Eh, he’s lightly alluded to that before. But then his cult start freaking out or his ego takes a ding. And then it’s back to the vociferous “stolen election” bullshit.
He has a captive base of drooling idiots who believe him and send him money . Why wouldn’t he go back to it?
He actually said the words “we lost” though. Not sure I’ve heard that before.
He said the same thing in the courts. You know, where you can’t blatantly lie.
Trump says anything and everything he has 0 spine or back bone
Said on the other thread:
No. He always knew it. That was part of the Jan 6 commission findings. That he appears to be altering his past statements to solicit support from a particular audience is not that notable, there are lots of examples.
Vice President Harris needs to ask him this question in the debate, but more importantly if he says yes, ask him when he realized he lost.
Time for him to admit he lost the 2024 election too
He might after he overthrows the election with the help of the Extreme Court, then what are you going to do about it?
Return to the Motherland (Europe)
(TECHNICALLY this is voluntary decolonization and therefore based)
Ah yes, we cheated using the disease your side adamantly opposed to protecting yourselves from
I’m a Free Thinking Republican and this is ONLY happening because the Deep State is trying to Kill Trump as demonstrated by sending a Child Assassin to MISS on Purpose to send a message to Trump because they’re scared of Him. That’s LITERALLY the ONLY reason why he’s saying this! I think for Myself!
You dropped this.
/s
No he didn’t. We don’t need punctuation for sarcasm. If it doesn’t work then the author sucks.
Or, perhaps, the reader is nodding along the whole way and completely misses the point — because they’re already a fucking moron? Don’t feed trolls, even by accidental crumbs. 🙇🏽♂️
Trump is a loser.
Confirmed, fact checked and validated.
He just repeat the last thing someone says to him, so it’s just a matter of time until he came back saying that the election was stolen.
The article quotes him as saying
and then
So I suspect in his mind, he still only "lost" because of the millions of illegal immigrants voting or some similar BS. I.e. the media is being too optimistic about this guy's POV and mental state.
“They propped themselves up with a platform! How is that fair!?”
That’s what he would say, but he knows it’s not true. It’s for the suckers to believe.
Mr Internet Explorer will be horrified when he learns of COVID next year

Media Bias Fact Check | bot support
He admitted to it on Jan 6. This is not “finally”
Was that when
Or do you mean the video he posted a few hours later where he continued to insist the election was ‘stolen’
What did he say on January 6th?
Edit: So I had seen clips and read lots of articles about what Trump said on January 6th, but I had never read the transcript. So I thought, why not? Let’s see it without anyone else telling me what it says. Holy shit, it was so much worse than I thought.
That he lost
I don’t believe that happened, can you provide a link of him saying it or a reputable source quoting him saying that?
Because I feel like I saw that episode and at no point did he admit to losing…
No he didn’t.
