President Donald Trump sent out a bevy of tweets Sunday morning including one in which he seems to acknowledge Democratic challenger President-elect Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
“He won because the Election was Rigged,” Trump said on social media, for the first time indicating Biden’s victory.
He won because the Election was Rigged. NO VOTE WATCHERS OR OBSERVERS allowed, vote tabulated by a Radical Left privately owned company, Dominion, with a bad reputation & bum equipment that couldn’t even qualify for Texas (which I won by a lot!), the Fake & Silent Media, & more! https://t.co/Exb3C1mAPg

Trump later added: “He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA. I concede NOTHING!”
He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA. I concede NOTHING! We have a long way to go. This was a RIGGED ELECTION!

Trump has filed numerous lawsuits, dozens of which have been thrown out by judges across the country. Poll watchers and observers were allowed to view the vote counting process across the country and there is no evidence that tabulating machines were error-prone.
Biden is projected to win 306 Electoral College votes to 232 for Trump, much more than the necessary 270 threshold.
