Years when Trump lost contests & attributed it to “fraud” or a contest that was “rigged”:

1985, 1986, (1987, privately lost something, publicly lied he won.), 1989, 1990, 1992, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2010-12, 2014, 2016-2020.

Do none of his supporters know this?

I’ve been asked to give each event. I will give till I get bored:

1985: described previous rejection of being allowed to invest in an NFL franchise as rigged

1986: antitrust suit against NFL, awarded $1. Said verdict was rigged. His actions here single handedly destroyed USFL..

...1987: lost huge investment in Alexander’s dept stores in market crash. Claimed he sold all his stocks pre-crash because he was “so smart” on investing. (His filings with SEC showed that was a lie. He lost a ton.)

1989: Lost bid on Seminole casino contract. Screamed “fraud”...

...was threatened with slander suit unless he either proved it or retracted. Did neither, but never said it again, which suggested pre filing settlement of slander case.

1990: when stock analyst projected Trump Taj Mahal would experience severe financial problems in the fall...

...Trump screamed “fraud! Lies!” And threatened the firm if they didn’t retract it. When analyst refused, Trump demanded firm fire the guy. It did. Guy sued Trump and the firm. Both settled for millions.

(Interlude: 1989: Trump was going to miss interest payment for Casino...

...so his dad laundered money through the casino illegally to get cash to dons hands so he could pay it. Was bank fraud and money laundering. Casino settled charges of bank fraud.)
