Donald Trump still doesn't seem to see the defeat in the 2020 US election.

The outgoing US President was now ridiculed on Twitter.

  • In the social networks,

    Donald Trump *

    declares himself

    prematurely the winner of the

    2020 US election,

    although he officially lost the election.

  • He accuses the Democrats of wanting to steal the election victory - there was now ridicule for the outgoing US president on Twitter.

  • All information about the

    US election 2020

    can

    be

    found in our current news ticker.

Update from November 8, 2:06 p.m.:

The relationship between the outgoing US President

Donald Trump

and the short message service

Twitter

is special.

On the one hand, Trump used the medium in a way that no politician had done before, and in some way heralded a

new era

in politics.

Meanwhile, numerous politicians take the short route via

Twitter

to react to current events in the world or to reach their many followers.

On the other hand, it was also Twitter that set itself the task of

flagging

misinformation

in Trump's tweets and thereby often embarrassing the 74-year-old.

In the days after the election, when Trump with a Tweet-Salve, called the vote count in some

states in the United States

to stop several times by an

electoral fraud

and a

"stolen election"

wrote the short message service was forced to the tweets with

warnings

to be provided .

STOP THE COUNT!

- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 5, 2020

But that's not all!

A user now discovered that Twitter

not only put a warning

under a tweet from Trump in which he

claimed victory in the election

despite the

defeat against Biden

, but also linked it with a link.

This link led to an article, of all things, which said that Biden had won the election.

Trump will not have liked that.

WHEN YOU CLICK ON THE LINK IT OPENS TO BIDEN WINNING LMAO pic.twitter.com/8rGz7LJy5t

Another user found that on the “People” tab under the search result “looser”, Donald Trump's profile appears first.

US election: Twitter and Facebook issue a warning to Trump's statements - "try to steal the election"

First report from November 4th:

Washington - "I'm going to make a statement tonight.

A big win! ”Is a recent tweet from US President

Donald Trump

.

In another, he claims the Democrats will steal the election victory.

It is provided with a warning from

Twitter

.

As the Telegraph journalist James Titcomb writes on Twitter, this happened just a few minutes after the tweet appeared.

"Some or all of the content shared in this tweet is controversial and potentially misleading with regard to participating in an election or other civic process," the short message service said.

Because who will be the winner of the

2020 US election

is unclear.

The counting of votes has not yet ended, the outcome of the election is open.

US election 2020: Social media with warning for reporting Trump

The social network

Facebook also

responded to

Trump's

claims and provided his reports with indications that the votes would continue to be counted.

Likewise on

Instagram

, which belongs to Facebook.

As Facebook itself announced, warnings have started to be issued after

Trump

declared

himself

the winner

too

early.

“The votes will continue to be counted.

The winner of the

2020 presidential election *

has not yet been announced, ”placed the company on the side of Donald Trump as well as that of its democratic challenger

Joe Biden *

.

This is currently causing a stir with a bizarre mix-up.

We are up BIG, but they are trying to STEAL the Election.

We will never let them do it.

Votes cannot be cast after the polls are closed!

- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 4, 2020

Facebook and Twitter with warnings: Trump with harsh accusations against Democrats

That the

Democrats will

manipulate the election is not a new accusation from

Donald Trump

.

For months, the

US president

has been trying

to discredit

his challenger

Joe Biden

and to unsettle US citizens.

A prominent example is his claim that postal voting has been manipulated *.

There is also no evidence to support Trump's allegation that the Democrats are stealing victory.

Literally,

Trump

tweeted,

“We're good at it, but they're trying to steal the election.

We will never allow it.

No votes can be cast after the polls have been completed! "

Under the Facebook video

Donald Trumps

with his live address, it says: "Final results can be different from the first results, as the counting can take days or weeks".

If you click on the note, you will be redirected to the “Voting Information Center” with facts about the

US election

and current results.

The source is the Bipartisan Policy Center, an American think tank.

The battle for US President between Donald Trump and Democrat Joe Biden has become a head-to-head race.

Trump declares himself the winner: Claims on Facebook continue to be shared

In response to requests from

Spiegel

, Facebook announced that the reach of the posts was not restricted.

Because the posts can still be commented on and shared.

As

Der Spiegel

continues, this sometimes happens with wrong content.

In this way, Facebook ensures that misleading reports reach fewer users.

Twitter

has chosen a different approach.

If you want to spread the said tweet in which

Trump makes

his allegation of election theft by the Democrats *, this is not possible as usual.

Because first Twitter generates the request to make the platform a place of reliable information.

Only when you add a comment to Trump's tweet yourself is it possible to retweet your claim.

As the

Frankfurter Allgemeine

reports, the Republicans would accuse social media of political influence and censorship.

Because even in the past few months, content that the incumbent US President and his team distributed was provided with a notice.

And according to

Business Insider

, it was already clear before the election to step in should one of the candidates prematurely announce their victory on social media.

US election 2020: Trump's tweet already shared a thousand times - research institute reports

The "Election Integrity Partnership", a US American association of research institutions, aims to identify attempts to delegitimize the election results or to prevent people from voting.

With a tweet, they commented

on

Twitter's

approach as follows: Twitter's action effectively stopped the spread of the tweet.

However, it has already been retweeted over 55,000 times and favored over 126,000 times.

This is as much or more reach than most of @real

DonaldTrump's

other tweets

today.
