Trump opens his news conference by saying "if you count the legal vote, I easily win. If you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us." This is a lie. There is no evidence of election fraud.
"The pollsters going it knowingly wrong" -- Trump argues that the media conspired to take him down by releasing polls that inflated Biden's popularity. Totally bonkers.
Alex Jones would blush at this stuff
"It's a corrupt system" -- The President of the United States is trying to undermine faith in US elections

Trump wants to disenfranchise voters in Detroit and Philadelphia
"The officials overseeing the counting in Pennsylvania and other key states are all part of a corrupt Democratic machine" -- Trump smears elections officials
"It's going to end up, perhaps, at the highest court of the land" -- Trump is really gonna try and steal this election. If he succeeds the US will no longer be a democracy.
