(DCNF)—NewsNation host Chris Cuomo on Thursday refuted a podcast listener named Nancy’s assertion that President-elect Donald Trump “did something” to rig the election against Vice President Kamala Harris.
Nancy appeared to reference Trump’s remark about having a “little secret” with Speaker of the House Mike Johnson during his Oct. 27 Madison Square Garden rally, which Johnson subsequently explained was a voter turnout initiative, according to The Hill. The caller, on “The Chris Cuomo Project,” suggested that Johnson was indicating a nefarious plan to rig the election and that Trump’s sweeping victory defied all historical precedent, but Cuomo told her there was no evidence of wrongdoing.
“There is absolutely no way, no way we lost this election. Absolutely no way. If you look at a tape when the Speaker of the House was here in Pennsylvania, he was rubbing his hands and stating that he and former President Trump had something up their sleeve,” Nancy said. “Please call me. I know we did not lose this election. I am positive. There’s something not right. He swept. Nothing in history has been like this. Please, we are deeply disappointed. Something is not right. He did something.”
“We lived through it in 2016, by the way, and look, I get why you’re upset. And that’s okay, by the way. And could you have been misled that everybody said it was going to be close? Yeah, but they said that Pennsylvania was going to be close also,” Cuomo responded. “And I think you’re taking the ‘they’ve got something up his sleeve’ — I think that was a bullshit Trumpism, something that he said. No Democrat in Pennsylvania or anywhere else has brought forward proof that the election was fugazi or rigged or wrong. And if they do, then we’ll look at that proof. But you’re 100% sure? You’re positive? How can you be positive? There’s been no proof of that other than this speculation that you point to.”
Cuomo suggested that Nancy’s remarks mirrored those of Trump voters in 2020 who insisted the election had been rigged.
“Don’t be like what you oppose. You know, that’s what an aggrieved Trump voter sounded like in 2020,” he said. “And I don’t think you want to be that. I think you want to be better than that.”
The brief 2024 race between Harris and Trump stayed consistently tight in the swing-states, according to polling. However, Trump swept all seven battleground states, securing 312 electoral votes, over 77 million votes and just under 50% of the total while Harris received about 48.3%, according to the Cook Political report.
