The tweet reads:
"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!"
President Trump in another couple of tweets also disclosed that he will not concede defeat to Biden, further alleging that the candidate of the Democratic Party only won "in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA".
In an apparent reference to the lawsuits he has filed to challenge the results, the US president declared that he will win.
The US president tweeted:
Note that the claims made by the president in his tweets have been labelled as being "disputed".
