Trump doubles down on 'crooked elections' claim with late-night Truth Social post

Donald Trump has added fuel to the fire of his election fraud claim with a late-night Truth Social post.

The president shared quotes from former co-director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Dan Bongino's latest podcast episode, where he and John Solomon spoke of Trump's claim of election fraud in 2020. Trump has shared this unverified claim of election fraud several times since the results of the 2020 election, and has since made further comment.

A post sharing quotes from Bongino and Solomon has been screenshot and shared to the president's Truth Social timeline.

The post reads, "He is going to start revealing some of the intelligence that was kept from the American people. And we're going to see that our foreign adversaries have monkeyed around with our (election) system more than we knew...

"And I think when Senators realize their state could have been targeted... There is going to be a different debate in America..." Trump commented on the quotes in the screenshot.

He wrote, "Crooked Elections cannot be allowed in the U.S.A. President DJT." During his second term in office, Trump's administration searched an election hub in Fulton County, Georgia.

The location is one of Trump's primary targets with his election fraud claims. Agents were seen going into the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center, with Fox News reporting that the outlet had been searched as part of a probe into the 2020 election.

The hub facility was opened in 2023 by state officials to streamline the county's election process.

Trump was indicted by a Fulton County grand jury along with 18 co-defendants in 2023 on charges related to his efforts to overturn his election loss to Joe Biden, but that case was ultimately dismissed after district attorney Fani Willis was removed over an improper relationship with a special prosecutor.
