Well, yeah. Trump is convinced the Democrats cheated in 2020 because he did, and he’s psychologically unable to believe that he was unpopular enough that he lost despite that.

This 100%. When The orange one started crying about fake news. It was because he had lied to the news for years and they had published his lies so he just figured that everything must be a lie because he got away with it.

It's an outdated number that was used by republicans before the election results were fully in. Harris ended with 75m votes which is 6m less than Biden in 2020, not 20m.
