Trump team uses Iowa caucus to spread lies about election 'rigging'

By Josh Israel -February 4, 2020 11:28 AM

It's the latest in a long history of Trump and his supporters promoting unfounded theories about election rigging.

Donald Trump's campaign manager and many of his surrogates were quick to claim after Monday's Iowa caucuses that a delay in announcing results is proof the entire nomination process is "rigged." This is the latest in a long history of Team Trump promoting conspiracy theories about election rigging.

Iowa's state Democratic Party told reporters Monday night it was reviewing the numbers "out of an abundance of caution" and would release results from the first-in-the-nation voting on Tuesday. With no evidence whatsoever, Trump's 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale quickly suggested something nefarious might be going on.

"Quality control = rigged?" Parscale tweeted. He told a Washington Post reporter, "It would be natural for people to doubt the fairness of the process."

Trump's oldest son stated the "rigging" theory as a fact. "The fix is in... AGAIN" Donald Trump Jr. claimed. He also suggested Democratic Party operatives were inventing fake votes for their preferred candidate. "Tens of thousands of ballots all for Joe Biden being shipped to Iowa from Broward County Florida as we speak. 'Don't worry folks we got this covered' DNC operatives."

from their primaries. If that's not rigging, I don't know what is.

Dude, if the fix had been IN in 2016, you and your numbnut family would not be in the White House.
