Trump keeps warning about election 'cheating.' His Michigan supporters are ready to move on [View all]
(USA Today) WARREN, Michigan - Four years ago, some of then-President Donald Trump's supporters were so certain he won that they sued or breached the U.S. Capitol to stop the certification of the election.
Courts, audits and other reviews have disproved Trump's claims of a stolen election in 2020, when President Joe Biden won the presidency. But in the heat of another election year, Trump has primed his supporters to reject the results of a tight race. While campaigning as the 2024 Republican presidential nominee, Trump has repeatedly told them to turn out in droves and make the election "too big to rig."
He told supporters during a campaign visit in western Michigan on Friday, "They cheat, that's the only way we're going to lose." And later in the Detroit suburb of Warren, in a pre-recorded video played before he took the stage, Trump said, "Keep your eyes open, because these people want to cheat and they do cheat and frankly, it's the only thing they do well."
While Trump has yet to commit to accepting the outcome of the presidential election, several of his supporters who attended rallies in Michigan on Friday said they're ready to do so even if he loses.
