DISINFO: Trump's defeat in the 2020 presidential elections was the result of a conspiracy of globalist elites against the majority of Americans

SUMMARY

Trump's defeat in the 2020 presidential elections was the result of a conspiracy of globalist elites against the majority of Americans. These globalist elites hold power in the US and have done everything possible to prevent Trump from serving a second term as US president.

RESPONSE

Conspiracy theory presented without evidence. This is a recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about global elites secretly ruling the world, and is consistent with the claim that there exists a ‘Deep State’ in the United States.

The article’s claims are also consistent with recurrent pro-Kremlin narratives that aim to question the legitimacy of liberal democracy and Western institutions and that seek to delegitimise the conduct and results of the 2020 US presidential election.

The November 2020 presidential election took place in full respect of the democratic system, as assessed by the OSCE, the US Supreme Court and a number of investigations and analyses that have led to the 2020 presidential election being considered as “the most secure in US history”.

Read similar cases claiming that the “Deep State” decides who may or may not become president of the US, that the result of the US 2020 election doesn’t matter because the real ruler is the Deep State and that Democrats and globalists Republicans stole Donald Trump’s victory in US presidential elections 2020 .
