Fox News host Howard Kurtz personally corrected former President Donald Trump after he claimed that the 2020 presidential election was "rigged."

"So, you know, we ended up winning, and we did much better in 2020," Trump told Kurtz in an interview that aired on Sunday. "We did. I did. You know, I did millions and millions of votes more in 2020. I did much better."

"And you can cut this if you want, but the election was rigged," he added. "You know, Fox may want to cut that one out, but that's OK."

"Well, I would just say it hasn't been proven in court," Kurtz clarified.

"Well, it was so rigged, it was so crazy, but we're going to do it again," Trump opined.
