Despite having finally assented to allowing his administration to cooperate with the transition of power to President-elect Joe Biden, President Trump on Sunday continued to spout baseless voter fraud claims in his first interview since Election Day, including suggesting that the FBI and Department of Justice were involved in rigging the election against him.

KEY FACTS

“This is total fraud,” Trump told host Maria Bartiromo during the interview on Fox Business’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” adding: “And how the FBI and Department of Justice—I don’t know—maybe they’re involved, but how people are getting away with this stuff—it’s unbelievable.”

The president offered no evidence to back up this claim, and then went on to complain at length about how the two agencies had been “missing in action” in investigating his voter fraud claims.

The DOJ and FBI did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Forbes.

1. Everyone is against me! I got the most votes ever* but I was cheated. My people can't use the mail!

there must be a conspiracy. I just can’t possibly lose. Everyone I talk to loves me.

*except one person

[PJMcK]

10. What makes you think they talk? (n/t)

[AZ8theist]

19. "The musings of an IMBECILE"...

v

[Botany]

2. Just 52 days to go and the DoJ and FBI can comment and show thier evidence publicly

BTW Isn't Trump consigiliere, Bill Barr in charge of the DoJ and the FBI?

[Turbineguy]

3. If you can't trust the fix, what can you trust?

[MaryMagdaline]

23. Perfect!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

4. Donny you're a L O S E R

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. The DoJ headed up by Trump's lapdog Bill Barr?

THAT DoJ? Maybe His Lardship is angry that said lapdog didn't fix the election enough in his favor.

[TexasBushwhacker]

39. Exactly. Christopher Wray at the FBI is his choice too n/t

[truthisfreedom]

6. Mr President, we apologize that the facts have deranged you.

However, we are faced with the reality that you are deranged.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

27. I think he was deranged before the first election,even. His dog-and-pony show

was such a shiny object for the press that they either were too distracted to do their jobs or their corporate bosses were so enamored with the ad money anything Trump brought in that the voices pointing out his insanity were drowned out. Besides, we had never had a sociopath run for president, so we didn't know what to look for.

He needs to be pushed to put up or shut up about evidence of fraud. That's the only question he should be asked, and if he refuses to answer it, then end the interview.

[Mr.Bill]

42. He was deranged when he was three years old. n/t

[William Seger]

64. His maturity was arrested around age 10 or 12

Most kids go through a narcissistic phase but most grow out of it, mostly. Because of other factors, little Donnie withdrew into it.

[Mr.Bill]

67. I used to think ten or twelve.

Mary Trump says three and a half. Maybe she wasn't referring to maturity, maybe it was something like emotional development. I can't remember.

[NCjack]

7. I think Trump, Gov. Abbott, and Bill Barrow stole the election in Texas

from DEMs.

I demand that DEMs investigate Texas ballots and voter suppression.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

40. Who's Bill Barrow?

[NCjack]

53. That's the false name Bill Barr uses when he signs in to motels

with prostitutes.

[Chainfire]

8. So, the people are against him, the courts are against him, The EC is against him

The Justice Dept. and the FBI is against him, Elections officials nationwide are against him, wouldn't you think that would tell him something?

[LisaL]

12. Voters are against him.

Therefore election is rigged in his mind.

[pazzyanne]

57. Actually, tRump is just telling us what he did. nt

[fierywoman]

9. After Jan 20, 2021 I would love to see the FBI and DoJ prove what John Dean

wrote this morning.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

28. Do you have a link?

[LiberalArkie]

44. this?

https://upload.democraticunderground.com/100214635986

[fierywoman]

46. Yup. I've felt this from the core of my being since Nov 4 -- and that Dean said it

makes me very hopeful.

Perhaps there's an upside to 75% (or whatever the number is) of R's thinking there was fraud in this election: if we can prove it was them and not us, that would have to be a quantum shift in their belief system.

[LiberalArkie]

60. If if was proven that the R's were Quilty of manipulation of the vote, their supports would

say "Smart Thinking, Way to Go".

[fierywoman]

66. This too!

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

63. Perfect. Thanks.

[LisaL]

11. Anti Trump voters rigged the election by going to the polls and voting.

Imagine that.

[Talitha]

34. Yeah, it's funny how that works, isn't it?

[Wellstone ruled]

13. Really!

This bullshit is all about firing the FBI Director,which he promised to do a couple months ago.

[bluestarone]

14. Take your dam tears and

Wipe your ASS with them! Tired of your crybaby tears!

[ananda]

15. The DOJ? Really?

With Barr at the helm?

This really is getting crazy.

[LymphocyteLover]

49. So sad-- when you control the government and still can't get them to rig the election for you!

[world wide wally]

16. Since you are throwing all the shit in the world at the wall.... Consider this:

What it it turns out that Qanon or the Proud Boys are really against you and it was THEM that hacked the vote?
Ever consider that, donnie dip?

[George II]

17. Is the firing of AG Barr looming in the near future?

[riversedge]

18. nah. Trump may need him for something before he leave. IMHO

[SayItLoud]

20. Wondering if the decent folks at the DOJ and FBI will

go the extra mile when tasked to "check into tRUMP" . If I were in one of those depts. I would volunteer for OT.

[rickyhall]

21. What about the Easter Bunny & Roadrunner, Trump? Sue them, oo

[Illumination]

22. Start packing you toys & diapers LOSER!

[Toorich]

24. Could it be....????

... the FBI and CIA have Doctors who know that the number 1 long-term side-effect
of Covid-19 AND All it's vaccines is ... Gayness? Every repuglican in America would be demanding
masks, gloves, and hazmat suits if word of this ever leaked out. There is no way we could respond
to that demand!
You couldn't pay rethuglicans enough money to leave their bunkers, basements and SHTF shelters
to get out and go to Walmart and buy toilet paper!


There would riots. Many rethuglican parents would slay their children rather than risk them contracting
Covid and possibly becoming Gay.

In most of the Zombie movies, the problem starts with a strange and wicked Government experiment or
cover-up of some sort.

What I'm just sayin'.....is what many people are sayin'. What do Fox, Qanon, and Gholiani say?

What should we all say?

....Just sayin'...

[TryLogic]

25. Hey Forbes, and FOX...

Giving a con man media exposure is a really bad idea.

[chowder66]

26. Makes one think that the rigging was on the Republican side and it didn't work. nt

[Talitha]

37. Oh, absolutely!

He thought the voting machine fix was in - just like it was in 2016.

[rickford66]

29. Who has he left out ?

[EarthFirst]

30. Dude is going to get the polonium treatment if he keeps this up... nt

[SayItLoud]

31. Wondering if the decent folks at the DOJ and FBI will

go the extra mile when tasked to "check into tRUMP" . If I were in one of those depts. I would volunteer for OT.

[Lock him up.]

56. They already did in the Individual-1 case.

Seem like only the DOJ memo (not in the Constitution) a POTUS can't be indicted prevented them to proceed.

[AllaN01Bear]

32. will you shut up man.

[NurseJackie]

33. I'm so sick of this JACKASS!

[Hip2bSquare]

35. I heard the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man and...

the Energizer Bunny were in on the plot also. I can't wait until he is officially irrelevant. 1/20/2021.

[sakabatou]

36. He needs a psych eval

[LymphocyteLover]

48. Yes, but we already know he's a stone cold psychopath

and clearly delusional

[yuiyoshida]

38. YES DONALD, the world is out to get you!!

believe it, if they had wanted to you would totally know it.

[Evolve Dammit]

41. So sick of listening to this orange psycho LOSER. Go jump off Drumpf Tower. What a total a-hole.

[patphil]

43. I'm surprised he hasn't attacked the Judiciary.

They haven't been supporting his BS lawsuits, and it's evident the Supreme Court isn't going to charge in like the cavalry and rescue him from his miserable failure in the election.

It's gotta be someone's fault he lost. Wait a minute, maybe it's Trump's fault.
Do you think he'd eventually realize this?
Nah, no way.
It has to be someone else's fault.
Right?

[Stuart G]

45. Why this is good...Shows Trump is nuts.."maybe they're involve". 3 key words..Trump's nuts..

[mahina]

47. Because:

[Mr. Ected]

50. Forget the news media, Trump has a future in movie theaters

He's the world's largest projector of all time.

[bucolic_frolic]

54. Unbelievable to who?

He's like a lunatic ranting on a street corner soapbox. If you or I did that we'd be carried off for sedation.

[Lock him up.]

55. What's next to blame? GOD made it happen? It was GOD's WILL?

Ya mean the ChRi$Taliban's GOD is against meeeeeeeee?

[mdbl]

58. Trump is one crazy F'er

that's all i have to say about that.

[ClusterFreak]

59. When, oh WHEN....

...is/are the highest ranked of the highest ranked in the United States of America's governmental/departmental hierarchy going to step up - as one - and call out this man's bullshit????

The highest ranked of the civilian and military leaders in the American government need to step the fuck up and say this man is a bald-faced liar, grifter and existential threat to American democracy as is his whole criminal nepotistic and mafioso-style maladministration.

I.

Can't.

Take.

It.

Anymore.

[secondwind]

61. Where's the man with the straitjacket???

[IsItJustMe]

62. Get the straight jackets out when he starts blaming Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham!!!

Bet then again, he will throw absolutely anyone under the bus if it suits him. It's all about him. Always has been and always will be.
Never seen a person with a narcissistic personality as bad as him. Never. He should be the poster child for mental illness. But then again, that would made people that have mental illness look bad so I will take that one back.

[NCjack]

65. Trump is projecting. He tried to fix the election and failed.

Now he is looking for his purchases of ballots. Did his agents buy and deposit the fraudulent ballots, or did they steal his money?

[Nitram]

68. LOL! Predictable. Soon he'll be blaming Elvis and the Loch Ness Monster.
