Donald Trump is reinforcing the dictator on “day one” theme he began last month, telling supporters in New Hampshire on Tuesday it was “ridiculous” he had to leave the White House after losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.

“When I left, which was ridiculous that we had to leave,” Trump complained, adding sardonically, “we have to follow the laws of our land.”

“But what a ridiculous – ” he continued before changing course to talk about election fraud. The ex-president is facing federal and state charges for his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election, but he told the MAGA crowd other people had cheated.

“Isn’t it amazing? They don’t investigate the people that cheated in the election. They investigate the people that understand they cheated and go after them. But they don’t investigate the people who cheated.”

“We have to have fair and free elections,” he added, before changing topics again.

Huffpost White House correspondent S.V. Dáte observed the ex-president “didn’t follow” the laws. “He attempted a coup. Which happens to implicate a number of different criminal laws.”

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) last week published a breakdown of the 91 charges Trump is facing in four criminal trials.
