Claims of election fraud in United States elections are not new. However, the levels at which they have been made in the recent election cycle are unprecedented. This “big lie”, that is that Trump was cheated of victory in the 2021 presidential election was born of Trump’s wild anti-democratic stance that he can simply not lose an election.
