In a video interview with a panel of historians, former President Trump made his first-ever public admission that he lost the 2020 election.
“I didn’t win the election,” he said, but later added that it was “rigged.”
The interview took place last summer but the details have only been released now.
Talking about his efforts to make South Korea pay more for US defense assurances, Trump said its president Moon Jae-in was very happy that Trump lost the election.
By not winning the election,” Trump said, “he was the happiest man – I would say, in order, China was – no, Iran was the happiest.
“[Moon] was going to pay $5bn, $5bn a year. But when I didn’t win the election, he had to be the happiest – I would rate, probably, South Korea third- or fourth-happiest.”
Trump reportedly reached out to the historians for an interview to ensure that they write “an accurate book” about his presidency.
Interestingly, Trump said shortly after his interview with the historians that he wouldn’t do any more interviews for books about him.
It seems to me that meeting with authors of the ridiculous number of books being written about my very successful administration, or me, is a total waste of time,” Trump said in a statement.
“These writers are often bad people who write whatever comes to their mind or fits their agenda. It has nothing to do with facts or reality.”

Fake news headline… Why can’t YWN just stay in its lane? It seems like YWN has hired a CNN or MSNBC news curator for it’s non-Jewish news…
#1 100% correct
Click bait is a big yetzer Hoorah
So has Trump figured out that IF he wants to go from “loser” to “winner”, he should take the advice of prominent Republicans and follow the lead of Richard Nixon, who could have made a much stronger argument that he was robbed by vote fraud in 1960, and instead of crying over spilled milk went on to get elected in 1968 (in addition, Nixon was a very non-ideological “big tent” Republican rather than one with a narrow ideological perspective who rejects supporters who don’t swear to obey him on every issue).
The YWN Headline about Trump’s supposed “admission” proved his point at the end. Those that hate him will just twist his words. YWN, you’re a parody without even realizing it! SAD!
Chaimalah: Read the transcript of the interview. Words have meaning. He acknowledged being the loser (aka “I didn’t win”). He offers the same phony excuses for his loss but at least he speaks emes about being the loser.
So silly. “I didn’t win” means that I’m not the acting president living in the white house. It is NOT an admission that Biden was the rightful deserving true winner
What a giant non-story. Of course he acknowledges that he didn’t win. He’s always acknowledged that. That’s why he’s now living at Mar-a-Lago and not at the White House! The question is WHY he didn’t win, and the answer is that the election was stolen by various means. He’s right about some (most) of those means, but wrong about some. He imagines that the fraudulent result could have been reversed before the electors’ votes were counted, and the fact is that it couldn’t. That doesn’t make it any less fraudulent.
