President Donald Trump reportedly became irritated when Bret Baier, an anchor for Fox News, pointed out that Kamala Harris, who was serving as Vice President at the time, allegedly “got 75 million votes” and claimed that the total official number of votes has been fabricated.
During his pre-Super Bowl LIX interview with Baier, which was aired on Monday night’s edition of Fox News Channel’s Special Report, Trump once again made the bogus claim that the 2020 election was “rigged” against him.
Trump has spent years making this false allegation.
At an earlier point in the interview, Trump expressed uncertainty regarding the outcomes of the election that he had won. In order to irritate him, Baier asserted that there were 75 million ballots cast for Harris.
“Sports has always been something that Americans rally around, come together they really do. You won the popular vote. You won all the swing states. But still, Kamala Harris got 75 million votes in the country.” Baier stated.
“Well, if you believe the whole thing.” Trump responded.
“Yeah, yeah, okay, let’s just say–” Baier said in response.
“The whooole thing is ridiculous–” the president noted.
“— let’s just say that the election was as it was.” Baier said.
“Bret Excuse me! There are seven swing states. I won them all.” Trump shot back
“Have you thought about how to try to bring the country together, to reach out or to find common ground? Have you thought about that? Or how that might go?” Baier asked shortly later in the discussion.
“I’d love to do it. And I can tell you, just prior to Covid coming and we were doing so well, the greatest we’ve ever done, there’s never been an economy like ours anywhere in the world. We were doing so well. We’re eating Chinese lunch. I charge, you know, I tariff China for $700 billion over a period of years. We were doing so well. And then we had the Covid.” Trump said in response.
