    December 19, 2020 – Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that Russia was “pretty clearly” responsible for a massive cyber attack on the U.S. government, but Trump instead suggested that China was behind it. “Everything is well under control,” the president said, downplaying the cybersecurity breach. It was his latest refusal to find fault with anything that might lay blame at the feet of the Russian government.

    December 15, 2020 – Trump and the Republican National Committee asked people to donate to a “Georgia Election Fund” for Senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler’s campaigns.

    December 13, 2020 – Trump said he would continue to challenge the result of the election, regardless of the Supreme Court’s rejection of a last-minute attempt to overturn Joe Biden’s victory. “No, it’s not over,” he said on Fox & Friends Weekend. “We keep going.” On Twitter, he repeated his baseless claim that he won the election, writing, “MOST CORRUPT ELECTION IN U.S. HISTORY!”

    December 13, 2020 – The Trump administration planned to distribute the coronavirus vaccine to its staff — at a time when front-line health care workers were given priority for early doses. Trump, though, reversed the policy hours after it was reported by the New York Times.

    December 11, 2020 – The Trump administration carried out its ninth of 13 planned federal executions — the first federal executions since 2003.

    Trump will have executed more inmates than any other president in more than 130 years. Grover Cleveland, in the 1890s, was the last president to carry out executions during a presidential transition.

    December 10, 2020 – Rebuffed by courts and state lawmakers, Trump called Republican members of Congress in a last-ditch effort to reverse the election. Mike Pence also made calls to lawmakers on the president’s behalf, as did Rudy Giuliani, who was in the hospital with the coronavirus.

    December 8, 2020 – Trump twice called Bryan Cutler, the Pennsylvania Speaker of the House, in an effort to overturn the election result.

    December 7, 2020 – The Trump administration, led by a man who for decades has boasted of his skills as a dealmaker, turned down a chance to secure more doses of Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine.

    The failure to make a deal with the pharmaceutical giant gave other countries the chance to get in line ahead of the United States, acquiring doses from the American company before the United States could.

    Of that money, the president’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, was paid $747,622 in consulting fees in 2017 while she was actually an executive officer of Trump’s companies. The offices of the Manhattan district attorney and the New York state attorney general issued subpoenas to the Trump Organization in both investigations.

    “If you count the legal votes, I easily win,” he said. “This is a case where they’re trying to steal an election. They’re trying to rig an election, and we can’t let that happen.” Despite Trump’s allegations, there was no evidence of any voter fraud in any state.

    “ANY VOTE THAT CAME IN AFTER ELECTION DAY WILL NOT BE COUNTED!” The president, however, does not have the authority to halt vote counting. Several states, too, were still legally counting mail-in ballots. In a statement from the White House briefing room, the president continued to cast doubt on the election with false assertions.

    He added, “Additionally, we hereby claim the State of Michigan if, in fact, … there was a large number of secretly dumped ballots as has been widely reported!” A president has no legal right to claim Electoral College votes. Nor had he disputed narrow vote margins that won him the presidency in 2016.

    November 4, 2020 – Without the power to do so, Trump proclaimed victories in states that will decide the outcome of the election. On Twitter, he wrote, “We have claimed, for Electoral Vote purposes, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (which won’t allow legal observers) the State of Georgia, and the State of North Carolina, each one of which has a BIG Trump lead.”

    “This is an embarrassment to our country. We were getting ready to win this election. Frankly, we did win this election.” He added, “We will be going to the U.S. Supreme Court. We want all voting to stop.” In making his historically unprecedented claim, Trump rejected the fact that millions of mail-in ballots in several states had yet to be counted in races that were too close to call.

    November 1, 2020 – At a rally in Michigan, Trump falsely claimed that before his election, no new auto plants had opened in the state for “decades and decades.” He also repeated a fabricated story that former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, at Trump’s urging, announced that five Japanese auto plants would be built in Michigan. No Japanese automaker has plans to build any plants in the state.

    October 20, 2020 – The New York Times revealed that Trump maintains a secret bank account in China. During his re-election campaign, Trump has accused Joe Biden of being too soft on China because of his son Hunter’s business dealings in that country. Trump paid only $750 in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017, but between 2013 and 2015, he paid $188,561 in taxes in China.

    “The spread in the United States of mobile applications developed and owned by companies in the People’s Republic of China (China) continues to threaten the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States,” Trump wrote.
