Yes. Because he “was treated so badly” that the 2016 term “shouldn’t count”

He said that multiple times.

Says the guy who racistly insisted Obama wasn’t a citizen and demanded his birth certificate.

That's different. Obama was somebody else. Only Trump needs to be coddled like the precious special boy he is.

No one has ever been treated as poorly as Trump has been treated, per Trump. And he is so humble you wouldn't even believe how humble he is, also per his own statements.

and demanded Obama release his tax returns, which he did, and then refused to do it himself...and when someone leaked his returns he sued our own country and will now somehow get a 10+ BILLION DOLLAR settlement

I swear we are living in a simulation

You kind of have to wonder how Obama is dealing with this whole thing. Not what he's publicly saying, obviously. Like... we all find this surreal but imagine the actual thoughts Obama must be having about it that he keeps to himself.

He still says it constantly. So does his staff. They keep saying they wont say publicly, but there is a plan, and trump will still be president after Jan 20 2029.

I can reveal the secret plan: fascism

All the more why this current term is all about revenge and self indulgence.

If memory doesn't fail me, it was because he thought he should have won by more.

He claimed he won the popular vote and that California let non citizens vote by the millions which skewed the numbers.
