‘Rigged Election!’: Trump Has Late-Night Twitter Meltdown, Accuses Obama Of Committing Crimes
President Donald Trump, who has not been seen publicly since every major news outlet called the election for President-elect Joe Biden on Saturday, broke his Twitter silence to unleash an unhinged, authoritarian-like Twitter meltdown.
Trump began by attacking former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe following his day of questioning in the GOP-controlled Senate.
“Andrew McCabe was exposed for who he is today in the U.S. Senate. He was totally destroyed - an ignorant fool. The great people of the FBI must make sure that he and his former boss, James Comey, pay the price for what they have done to the reputation of the FBI,” Trump tweeted on Tuesday.
“He should pay a big price for his subversion!” Trump warned.

Trump later retweeted multiple articles attacking the integrity of the 2020 presidential election, claiming multiple times, without a shred of evidence, that the election was “Rigged.”
“People will not accept this Rigged Election!” Trump tweeted. Twitter later flagged the tweet as “disputed.”

Trump also lashed out at former President Barack Obama, falsely claiming he was caught spying on his campaign.
“Obama spied on our campaign - and got caught!” Trump tweeted at 9:26 PM.
