Mary Trump 'fixes' POTUS' voter fraud tweet as she trolls him for loss to Joe Biden, Internet says 'great edit'

Mary shared a screenshot of her uncle's tweet and said, 'Fixed it for you' after editing the original text to simply, 'He won', making it sound like her uncle conceded

After President Donald Trump appeared to admit that president-elect Joe Biden won the 2020 election in a tweet on Sunday, November 15, even as he continues to allege that the race was "rigged" and refuses to concede to his Democratic opponent, his niece, Mary, trolled him on social media.

Sharing a video clip from Fox News show 'Watters' World', where host Jesse Watters baselessly claimed the election "doesn't add up", the president tweeted, "He won because the Election was Rigged. NO VOTE WATCHERS OR OBSERVERS allowed, vote tabulated by a Radical Left privately owned company, Dominion, with a bad reputation & bum equipment that couldn’t even qualify for Texas (which I won by a lot!), the Fake & Silent Media, & more!"

Just like almost every tweet of his since the election day, this post was also flagged as "disputed" by Twitter. Mary shared a screenshot of her uncle's tweet as she said: "Fixed it for you." In the screenshot, the original tweet had been edited to simply: "He won", making it sound like her uncle conceded.

Followers of Mary, most of whom were against the president, were delighted by the prank the POTUS' niece pulled on him. "Lol! My only favorite Trump is doing her thing to solidify this moment," one tweet read, while another said, "I think of how truthful, warm, and considerate you are and wonder how you survived in that family. I’m so happy you are willing to expose him and his family. Thank you." A third read, "Awesome trolling." 

Another remarked, "Thanks Mary for all you have done to help save democracy." The next opined, "This is the slow reversal which in days/weeks to come will be like the bleach episode 'of course I was joking' He is playing to his audience but with a tricky exit strategy." Someone else tweeted, "Best thing he ever tweeted." "Just superb!!! Simplest is always the best. Except when it comes to a president it would appear," one user wrote. One social media user wrote, "Great edit. Brevity is the soul of wit!" Someone else said, "Thank you. I guess this is as close to what we’ll get as a concession speech."

Trump's rant against Biden did not end there. After people started gossiping about what his "he won" tweet meant, he clarified that his tweet did not mean that he was conceding. "He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA. I concede NOTHING!" Trump said. "We have a long way to go. This was a RIGGED ELECTION!"

It is worth noting that in the last couple of days, courts have rejected appeals to block out ballots that arrived after election day in Pennsylvania. A Michigan judge also refused to stop certifying results after Trump supporters claimed Detroit had committed fraud with absentee ballots. An Arizona judge too had to dismiss a Trump campaign lawsuit seeking inspection of ballots citing that the number at issue wouldn't change the outcome of the votes.
