President Donald Trump questioned the results of the midterm elections in a jaw-dropping social media post, less than a week after he, his preferred candidates, and GOP control of Congress were smacked down in a brutal rout.

Taking to Truth Social on Monday morning, the president said: “Does anybody really believe that this ‘Election’ was honest. How could the Polls be so wrong??? Some early voting “dumps” were so large that it was impossible to win, no matter how many people went to vote.”

He added: “It’s all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter!”

The Monday morning statement came nearly two weeks after the president was pressed over whether he would accept the results of the midterms.

“I will,” Trump admitted to a reporter during a press gaggle at Joint Base Andrews. “If they are honest elections, yup.”

The question was raised after an analysis by The Washington Post outlined how Trump and his partners have been circulating doubt about results ahead of the midterm elections.

The report looked at some of the ways Trump’s team is spreading skepticism about the validity of the election through social media posts and podcasts, warning the president’s backers to “expect cheating” if Republican candidates are defeated.
