Talking Points Memo reports:
On Monday night, President Donald Trump pushed yet again his evidence-free conspiracy theory claiming out-of-state voters illegally cost him New Hampshire in the 2016 general election. There is zero evidence of this claim, which Trump and his allies have been peddling for years.
“We should have won the election, but they had buses being being shipped up from Massachusetts,” he told his booing supporters at a campaign rally in Manchester, New Hampshire. “Hundreds and hundreds of buses. And it was very, very close even though they did.”

Trump just said that he “loves Concord,” the “one we keep reading about.” Don’t think he knows that the Concord of Lexington and Concord fame is in MA; the other one is in NH, where he is tonight.

And now it appears that the president of the United States of America thinks that one of the two military engagements that started America’s Revolutionary War was fought in Concord, *New Hampshire*. https://t.co/kUcBreLSFI

Just saw Trump’s “Concord” clip. He actually mispronounced my birthplace *eight times in 30 seconds* as *well* as confusing Concord, Massachusetts and Concord, New Hampshire. And the whole time he was saying he “loves” a town he can’t *pronounce or locate on a map*. Such a liar.
