Donald Trump says that what he describes as a “rigged election” means he should be allowed to host the World Cup and the Olympics. Multiple outlets report that the remarks come after Trump renewed his claim that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was stolen, despite evidence that contradicts his assertions. In the reported comments, Trump links his alleged loss to an entitlement to major international sporting events, framing the idea as a consequence of his broader election complaints. The accounts also note that Trump continues to publicly revisit the 2020 election results, extending earlier claims rather than acknowledging them as settled. Both sources present the statement as part of his ongoing messaging around election integrity, while the background context is that courts, electoral processes, and other evidence do not support his “rigged” framing. The reports focus on what Trump says rather than confirming any plans or decisions regarding hosting the tournaments.
