Former US President Donald Trump claimed in an interview broadcast on Sunday that he had already made up his mind that the election was “rigged” – a false claim he still makes.
And that he had dismissed the opinions of his own lawyers in continuing to challenge his defeat in the 2020 election because he wasn’t respectful of them.
Currently, DonaldTrump is being investigated for four separate crimes, two of which are related to his attempts to reverse his defeat to Biden in the 2020 election.

Trump is the front-runner for the Republican nomination to challenge Democratic President Joe Biden in the 2024 election.
“It was my decision,” Trump said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” show, adding that he heavily relied on his own “instincts” to reach that determination. He claimed that he believe the election was “rigged” against him.
Trump continues to persist in declaring falsely that extensive voting fraud was used to rig the election against him.
When questioned about why he disregarded the opinions of the White House legal team and his campaign that he had lost the election, Trump said, “Because I didn’t respect them.”
As one of the attorneys whose counsel he ignored, Trump singled out former US Attorney General William Barr, who informed him that he had lost the election.
“I listened to some people,” Trump admitted. Guys like Bill Barr, who was stiff, weren’t present at the time, but they were mentioned.
However, he didn’t work because of his fear. In all four criminal instances, including a federal indictment in Washington and a Georgia charge stemming from his attempts to compile a list of fictitious voters to aid Congress in certifying the results of the 2020 election, Trump has entered a not guilty plea.
His comments Sunday could undermine one of his potential legal defenses.. He continued to contest his defeat, relying on the counsel of his attorneys. Since the November 2020 election, scores of lawsuits brought by the Trump campaign and its allies have been rejected by American courts.
