President Donald Trump’s latest dishonest tweet about the 2020 election got a thorough debunking from CNN’s Jake Tapper early Wednesday.
Tapper wasn’t having it after Trump tweeted a fantasy scenario of how he could actually end up beating President-elect Joe Biden. (Trump lost the election, despite his lies.)
If Vice President @Mike_Pence comes through for us, we will win the Presidency. Many States want to decertify the mistake they made in certifying incorrect & even fraudulent numbers in a process NOT approved by their State Legislatures (which it must be). Mike can send it back!

The CNN anchor went through Trump’s post clause by clause, calling out the falsehoods one by one.
Tapper ended his response with a sarcastic dig: “Otherwise, good tweet.”
He won’t and
You won’t and
They don’t and
They didn’t and
It wasn’t and
He can’t
Otherwise, good tweet 👍🏻 https://t.co/7OxXYHZNRU— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) January 6, 2021
People on Twitter cheered Tapper’s tart retort as the reply went viral:
And @jaketapper to close out a great night... perfectly. https://t.co/VAniS0db0C
