The Facts
On Tuesday, former US Pres. Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, cast his ballot in Florida, where he then appeared before the media and lauded conservatives for "voting very powerfully" on Election Day.
Trump also said he ran a "great campaign," comparing it to his previous two by calling his 2016 campaign "great" and his 2020 campaign "much better" except "something happened."
The Spin
Republican narrative
Trump has every reason to be confident the election will go his way, considering the enthusiastic turnout among Republican voters and the solid campaign he ran. There's no reason for him to have any regrets, unlike his opponent, whose foibles probably cost her a chance to beat Trump.
Democratic narrative
There's no reason to believe anything Trump said, considering he claimed he would accept the result in a "fair" election but then, without evidence, spoke about having a big lead entering Election Day while spreading conspiracy theories about the reliability of voting machines. If 2020 is anything to go by, Trump has no plans to concede.
