Former President Donald Trump said Wednesday he would not commit to accepting the results of the 2024 presidential election, repeating comments he made during the 2020 campaign.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee also repeated false claims that he won the state of Wisconsin over then-presidential candidate Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

It's really terrible. They did so many, so many different things that were completely in violation of what was supposed to be happening. And you know it, everyone knows it. We can recite them and follow lists as long as our arms. But I don't think we're going to get it. I think we will win. And if you don't win, it depends on the situation. It's always about the fairness of elections. ”
