Obama: Trump's claims of a rigged presidential election are 'ridiculous'

2016-08-05 6

President Obama was dumbfounded by Donald Trump's notion that the upcoming presidential election may be "rigged." "Of course the election will not be rigged. What does that mean?" Obama told reporters Thursday. He also said he's never heard of someone complaining "about being cheated before the game was over." The president pointed to the fact that states, not the federal government, are charged with administering elections.
