A report published by the US Census Bureau last month purported to uncover evidence backing up President Donald Trump's baseless claims that noncitizens voting cost him the 2020 election . It was the latest salvo in Trump's broader assault on the safety of US elections. "I WON THE ELECTION," Trump quickly declared on Truth Social after the publication of the report.
