Former President Donald Trump repeated familiar false claims ahead of his first visit to Wisconsin this campaign cycle:
In 2020, Trump “did much better” in the Wisconsin election than 2016, and “after the wrongdoing was found, people said, ‘Well, he actually did win.’”An attendee smokes a cigarette, while waiting in line to attend a rally held by U.S. President Donald Trump Jan.14, 2020 at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. .Trump claimed he performed better in 2020 than 2016 in Wisconsin. He won the state in 2016 but lost in 2020.
O’Donnell, a conservative talk radio host, did not push back on Trump’s false claims that he won the state in 2020 or that there was wrongdoing in the presidential election.Let’s tackle the first part of Trump’s claim: That he performed better in Wisconsin in 2020 than he did in 2016.So, while Trump picked up more raw votes in 2020, his performance was not better because he ultimately lost by about 20,000 votes.
PolitiFact Wisconsin has checked these claims before, and we’ll continue doing so if Trump airs them as he hits the ground in Wisconsin ahead of November. "Wisconsin Republicans have passed multiple billion dollar middle-class tax cuts this year, but each time we have, Governor Tony Evers has vetoed the relief."
