## What the media says

**Video transcript** (reposted clip, 4:54), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> So, we're all in agreement that it is incorrect to say the 2020 election was stolen. But I'm not the 2016 election. Look, I'm not gonna go back into history. It was a stolen election. It was stolen. Stolen. He's an illegitimate president. He's an illegitimate president. You know, pretending to be president. Why do you think the president is going to such great lengths to essentially prove that he beat you? Because he didn't. One-third of Clinton supporters say Trump election is not legitimate. I think he's an illegitimate president that didn't really win. You are absolutely right. You can run the best campaign, you can even become the nominee, and you can have the election stolen from you. The 2016 election was stolen. Got a nicer way to say that? Say Russia hacked the election. Russia hacked our election. Russia hacked our election. A little louder, please. Russia hacked our election. That was a 9/11 scale event. This was a kind of cyber 9/11, American institutions, yes. Russia hacked our election. Russia, you know, of course, hacked our election here. Half of Clinton's voters believe the conspiracy theory that Russia hacked election day votes. We know that they were into voting rolls, actual interference with the elections themselves. We know it happened. Despite no credible evidence, 67% of Democrats believe Russia tampered with vote tallies. Hacking the U.S. election. Hacking the U.S. election. Russia hacked our election. The Russians hacked our election. Russia hacked our election. Russia hacked our election. Russian hacking of our election. Hacking of our election. Russia hacked our election. Russia hacked our election. Stolen election. Russia hacked our election. Russia hacked our election. Universal assessment that Russia hacked our election 2016. Foreign governments hacked our election. Most young Americans consider Donald Trump an illegitimate president. An illegitimate president. He's an illegitimate president. Why is he illegitimate? He just won an election. He's an illegitimate president in my mind, that's it. I absolutely agree. Experts urge Clinton Camp to challenge election results. We will see how illegitimate his victory actually was. He's an illegitimate president. Russia hacked our election. Russians hacking our election. Hacked our election. Russia hacking our election. I don't see this president as a legitimate president. Trump is an illegitimate president who stole the election. He is not a president. He's illegitimate and my biggest fear is that he's going to do it again with the help of Vlad, his best past. Terrifying. Would you be my vice president? I'm from Canada. Hillary Clinton voters call to overturn election results. More than 4 million people have already signed a petition on Change.org calling for the electors of the electoral college to "ignore their states, vote and cast their ballots for Secretary Clinton." Trump didn't actually win the election in 2016. We are the victims of a bloodless coup. He didn't won the general election. Yo, electoral college. Make Hillary Clinton president, period. Donald Trump is an illegitimate president. He's not a legitimate president. Dems don't accept Trump as a legitimate president. This wasn't on the level. This election was not on the level. I don't think he's a legitimate president. Our election wasn't legit. He got his victory from cheating. Yes, Trump cheated. Trump cheated the 2016 election. He's an illegitimate president. No validity. No credibility. Mm-hmm. And because of that... Anger at what some see as an illegitimate president. Donald Trump has got to vote. It will not be a peaceful change of power. A number of incidents turned violent. Protesters hurled trash cans, flash bombs, and objects at police. Several officers injured. Protesters drew rocks and smashed windows, leading to more confrontations, injuries, and arrests. The chaotic scene just blocks outside the secure area of the inauguration. If denying election results is extreme now, why was it that bad? Let's be really clear. That comparison that you made is just ridiculous. Violence against Donald Trump's election victory surged overnight, and some became violent. Violence erupted on the streets of Portland during the second straight day of protests over the election of Donald Trump. Some protesters launched fireworks and other projectiles at police. Several people began vandalizing cars. Some demonstrators smashed door windows. Protesters faced off with police in other cities, too, including Oakland, Denver, and Minneapolis. Violent protests continuing now for the third day in a row. Some 4,000 angry demonstrators over Trump's election victory taking to the streets. Officers in front of thousands of protesters in what police called a riot. Setting fires, taking their frustrations out on cars and buildings. People threw projectiles at officers and damaged property as well. I threw a trash can at them because I'm angry. One woman driving through was attacked as someone used a bat to smash her windshield. They are undermining our democratic process, everything that we stand for.
