Donald Trump appears to already be admitting defeat to former Vice President Joe Biden. He took to Twitter on Tuesday to claim that Democrats will “rig” the election by using mail-in voting to commit voter fraud, a theory that has been debunked time and time again.
Trump tweeted out saying, “Mail-In Voting, unless changed by the courts, will lead to the most CORRUPT ELECTION in our Nation’s History! #RIGGEDELECTION”

This prompted Twitter users to come out swinging. Take a look at how voters took down Trump in some of the responses below:
Mail-In Voting will not lead to a rigged election. It will allow more Americans to participate in our democracy and have their voices heard. Trump wants to suppress the votes of minorities because he can only win by cheating. But we the American people will not stand for it.

And… the "Trump Pence Team" is *promoting* mail-in voting via email campaigns! #TrumpIsCorrupt pic.twitter.com/2YovqYLMPP

By rigged, he must mean he hasn’t found a way to cheat it yet.

YOU are the only CORRUPT election-stealing thief America must worry about. Because you know you cannot win fairly. But we will not let you steal THIS one… #Trump #Election2020

Undermining election results 3.5 months before the vote is what fascist losers do.

More corrupt than the last election?!? Doubt it.

Dude, wait until you read about the election of 2000. Hanging chads, butterfly ballets and SCOTUS. Perhaps have someone read you @JeffreyToobin's book "Too Close to Call."

WRONG. I just voted by mail. It was a rigorous process. There was no way I could vote more than once, or use multiple ballots, and my signature had to match the records before it was accepted. Each ballot is number-coded. Our election supervisors know what they're doing. pic.twitter.com/qC2yuPQL7F

TRUMP IS SCARED OF LOSING
Trump's poll numbers are appalling & he is worried that he is going to lose the election. He lost the popular vote by millions in 2016 & his "popularity" is even LESS now than it was then. He knows his only way of "winning" is to try & rig the outcome!
