Trump Renews Calls for 2020 Election Probe

President Donald Trump has renewed calls for a special prosecutor to investigate the 2020 election, repeating claims of fraud and theft by Joe Biden despite a lack of credible evidence and failed legal challenges. Trump's demand was posted on Truth Social and followed unsubstantiated allegations by FBI Director Kash Patel regarding supposed Chinese interference, including claims about fake driver's licenses. Independent investigations, court rulings, and Trump’s own campaign-commissioned probes have found no substantial fraud impacting the 2020 results. Some of Trump's advisors have acknowledged the fraud allegations were unfounded, and the Justice Department has declined to comment on the latest demands. Legal experts note that only the Attorney General, not the president, can appoint a special prosecutor. Trump’s repeated assertions appear to serve political and strategic goals as he continues to contest the legitimacy of the 2020 election.
