Trump: The Elections are Rigged and Stolen

Former U.S. President Donald Trump participated in a campaign rally for the state's former governor, Sarah Palin, in Alaska. Trump maintained ambiguity about the possibility of running for president in 2024 and continued to promote the conspiracy theory he has insisted upon, claiming that President Joe Biden stole his victory in the last presidential election. On stage, Trump stated, "The elections are rigged and stolen, and our country is experiencing systematic destruction." In front of crowds gathered at the Anchorage stadium, the former president remarked, "I have been a candidate twice and won twice," adding, "and now... I may have to run again." Trump's statements came during his involvement in the campaign for Palin, who is one of the leading figures of the populist and anti-elite movement, a stance that the former president also adheres to. Palin, 58, is seeking to win the only congressional seat allocated to Alaska in the U.S. House of Representatives following the sudden death of Republican Congressman Don Young, who held the position for 49 years.
