Trump Tells Fox News He Had "Every Right" to Interfere in Presidential Election

Washington D.C. – In an explosive interview with Fox News, former President Donald Trump has sparked outrage by claiming he had "every right" to interfere in the 2020 presidential election.

"I did what I had to do to win," Trump told Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson in an interview set to air tonight. "I’m not going to apologize for trying to protect this great country and its democracy. I had every right to do what I did, and I would do it again in a heartbeat."

Trump’s comments come as he faces mounting legal scrutiny and accusations of election interference. Federal investigators have been probing claims that Trump and his associates sought to pressure foreign officials to investigate his political rival, Joe Biden, in the months leading up to the 2020 election.

Democrats and election experts have decried Trump’s latest comments as a flagrant disregard for the principles of democracy and the rule of law. "This is an attempted coup, plain and simple," said Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) in a statement. "Trump’s admission that he tried to interfere in the election only underscores the gravity of the situation. We must ensure that those responsible are held accountable."

The interview with Trump marks his first public comments on the matter since the New York Times reported in October that he had asked then-Attorney General Bill Barr to investigate the president’s political rival. Barr later denied the report, but multiple current and former officials have since corroborated the account.

Trump’s lawyers have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing, claiming that the former president was simply exercising his constitutional right to free speech. However, experts argue that Trump’s actions went far beyond protected speech and constituted a blatant attempt to undermine the integrity of the election.

The fallout from Trump’s comments is likely to dominate the political landscape in the coming days. With both parties gearing up for crucial midterm elections in November, the controversy is likely to further polarize an already divided electorate.
