Standing in front of the White House, President Donald Trump watched as new flagpoles were installed — an event he had announced a day earlier on
Truth Social: "It is my Great Honor to announce that I will be putting up two beautiful Flag Poles on both sides of the White House, North and South Lawns," he wrote. Staying true to his word, he showed up the next day for the flag-raising and posed for photos. After the ceremony, Trump stayed to answer a few questions from reporters, but it was his accusation about voter fraud that became the main focus.

While speaking about his earlier "autopen" claims, President Donald Trump introduced a new theory involving China and license plates: "Not only did they cheat… I guess you saw it yesterday, came out, with China and the license plates," he said. "Tens of thousands of cards. They used those cards to vote on the second election, my second, the one 2020." Trump went on to say that "everybody knew" he "won the election by a lot" but added he's glad that to be serving a second term now, calling it a "more historic election" than before.
