Donald Trump rants on CNN about 'rigged' election in first appearance since sex abuse verdict

Former US President Donald Trump has again refused to acknowledge that he lost the 2020 election during a CNN Town Hall appearance on Wednesday evening.

Trump's televised appearance came just a day after a civil jury found him liable for sexually assaulting a female writer nearly three decades ago.

Screened from Saint Anselm College in Manchester, New Hampshire, Trump also repeatedly downplayed the violence on January 6, 2021 - the infamous day his supporters stormed the US Capitol, and continued to insist the presidential election had been "rigged", even though no evidence has ever emerged to support his claims.
