Donald Trump is seeking to delegitimize the results of the 2020 US presidential election through dozens of lawsuits and Twitter tirades.
Trump expressed his confidence on the electoral process which had looked more favorable to him late on Tuesday before hauls of early votes started being tabulated and all over sudden Joe Biden surpassed him in key battleground states.
These wins for Biden made Trump made a quick U-turn on the confidence he expressed on the electoral process, now claiming that he is being rigged out in battleground states where he thought he would carry the day.
Trump campaign is trying to stop vote counts in states where he is trailing, like Pennsylvania and Michigan, but demanding that all the votes are counted in states where they believe they have of a chance of catching up to Biden, like Arizona and Nevada.

Trump’s move to discredit election results has made America’s election become a subject of mockery.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei poked fun at US election saying that the vote exposed the reality of its democracy.
“What a spectacle! One says this is the most fraudulent election in US history. Who says that? The president who is currently in office. His rival says Trump intends to rig the election! This is how #USElections & US democracy are,” Iran’s Supreme Leader tweeted.
