U.S. President Donald Trump described the United States as a "third-world country with elections" and renewed his claims that political opponents manipulate election results during a speech to a gathering of conservative activists in Washington.
“It's honestly, it's terrible. We're a third world country with elections,” Trump said, Caliber.Az reports.
The president contrasted the U.S. election process with Colombia, saying votes there had recently been counted quickly, while ballot counting in California had continued for weeks.
“Every vote was counted. Here we are in California. They're going to go for weeks and weeks and weeks. And you know what they do? They cheat. How many votes do we need? How many votes? That's why they take their time,” he said.
