‘It was your own White House’: Trump mocked after saying president rigged 2020 election

Donald Trump is being mocked for suggesting the White House "rigged" the 2020 presidential election, which he lost. Trump was President in 2020, as critics rushed to remind him.

Trump was referring to a report, originally published by the Wall Street Journal, which states Meta/Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg sent a letter to Republican House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan saying he wants his platforms to be "neutral" in politics, and that he regrets removing or downplaying some content, including COVID disinformation, in response to White House pressure. Zuckerberg also referenced a now-infamous Hunter Biden laptop article in the New York Post. Zuckerberg writes in his letter, "the FBI warned us about a potential Russian disinformation operation about the Biden family and Burisma in the lead up to the 2020 election."

Trump on his Truth Social platform wrote:

"Zuckerberg admits that the White House pushed to SUPPRESS HUNTER BIDEN LAPTOP STORY (& much more!). IN OTHER WORDS, THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WAS RIGGED. FoxNews, New York Post, Rep. Laurel Lee, House Judiciary Committee."

(That post has a quotation mark at the beginning but nowhere else, making it unclear where the quote ends.)

And in response to a screenshot of The New York Post's cover story, Trump wrote: "This is what everyone’s been waiting for — THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WAS RIGGED!"

That headline reads: "Zuckerberg admits Biden admin pressured Facebook to censor COVID content, says it was wrong to suppress The Post's Hunter laptop coverage."

Zuckerberg's letter to Chairman Jordan is clear.

He writes that in "2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire..."

The election was in November of 2020.

Zuckerberg then goes on to say: "In a separate situation, the FBI warned us about a potential Russian disinformation operation about the Biden family and Burisma in the lead up to the 2020 election. That fall, when we saw a New York Post story reporting on corruption allegations involving then-Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's family, we sent that story to fact-checkers for review and temporarily demoted it while waiting for a reply..."

But Trump's posts appear to miss that he was President in 2020.

Responding to Chairman Jordan's Judiciary Committee's posting of Zuckerberg's letter, The Atlantic's David Frum asked, "who was president of the United States in the year 2020?"

Veterans advocate and former intelligence officer Travis Akers post a screenshot of Trump's post and some commentary:

Progressive social media user Alex Cole, who has over 250,000 followers on X wrote: "That means it was your own White House, dumbass. You were president in 2020!"

Conservative attorney George Conway, a Never-Trump activist responded, writing: "Imagine if [anyone else in the entire f*^%ing world] said this."
