Donald Trump trashed for falsely claiming he 'won every primary' in 2024
WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump has reportedly falsely claimed that he “won every primary” in 2024.
The former President is not someone new to make such claims as in 2020 following Joe Biden’s win, he alleged, “We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to pose as the winner falsely, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: they don't want the truth to be exposed. The simple fact is this election is far from over.”
“I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands,” he stated, as reported by NBC News.

Following the same pattern, the 77-year-old Republican first spoke about former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, who unsuccessfully tried to run for the Presidential chair, on Greg Kelly Reports on Newsmax. Nikki Haley defeated Trump in Vermont and Washington DC.
He said, as reported by mediaite.com, “As far as Nikki is concerned, I was very disappointed in her because she stayed too long. And remember, I beat her in her own state. I beat her very badly everywhere.”
Trump continued, “You know, I set records in the primaries. People don’t, you know, wanna talk about it, but if it were somebody else other than me, they’d say, ‘Wow, what a job.’
“We won every primary in a record. We beat her in her state – South Carolina, where she was governor – by record numbers.”
“If you look at the kind of numbers we got, they’re incredible,” he added.
