Cryin’ Chuck Schumer and the Democrats (including Eric Holder) rigged the 2020 Presidential Election.
Evidence and Verdict
For
After the 2020 election, former President Trump, his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, and his campaign publicly alleged fraud and claimed the election was rigged, as reported by the AP. Various social media posts and circulated documents (including an anonymous 32-page document highlighted by PolitiFact) and recurring claims about voting systems like Dominion were promoted by proponents of the stolen-election narrative.
Against
Multiple independent fact-checkers and officials found no evidence that the 2020 presidential election was 'rigged'; AP and BBC report that then-Attorney General William Barr and the U.S. Justice Department found no widespread voter fraud that could overturn the election. PolitiFact and other fact-checking outlets have repeatedly reviewed and debunked major allegations and pieces of 'evidence' (including claims about fabricated ballots, Dominion systems, and new anonymous documents) and concluded the claims remain false or unproven.
Verdict
Extensive official reviews, including statements from the DOJ under AG Barr, and repeated fact-checking by PolitiFact and other outlets found no credible evidence that Democrats or named individuals 'rigged' the 2020 election; therefore the claim is false.
