Leavitt defends Trump’s fixation on lost 2020 election ahead of president’s primetime address

Fielding questions about the substance of the president’s televised address tonight – specifically reports that Trump plans to unveil new claims of interference in the 2020 election, despite the lack of evidence of widespread fraud – Leavitt argued that the president remains focused on the results because “the media has refused to acknowledge that tens of millions of Americans share his concerns about the sanctity of our elections.”

She added that Trump’s forthcoming “findings will shock you,” urging viewers to tune in. “Everything he is saying will be backed by facts and by evidence that will be provided this evening,” she said.
