- Trump claims he won Minnesota three times without evidence — When asked by CNN's Kaitlan Collins whether the FBI should share information about the Renee Good shooting with state officials, President Trump responded with unsubstantiated claims that Minnesota is corrupt and that he won the state in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Trump lost Minnesota in all three elections. He also made inflammatory statements about Somali-Americans, claiming they "buy their vote" and alleging widespread fraud without evidence.
