Disgraced comedian Kathy Griffin has taken to the airwaves to assert that President Trump orchestrated the theft of the 2024 election via vote tampering.
In a conversation with former CNN anchor Don Lemon, Griffin laid out a conspiracy theory alleging that Trump and Elon Musk engaged in election manipulation akin to the tactics employed by Democrats during the 2020 presidential race.
Lemon, for his part, expressed support for her theory.
Below is a transcript of their exchange:
GRIFFIN: Are you ready for a tinfoil hat moment?
LEMON: Yes.
GRIFFIN: Alright, I’m going to be bold here. And yes, you can disagree with me if you wish.
I genuinely do not believe he won in a free and fair election. Take that, lefties! Yes, I said it. I’m Kathy Griffin, and I think there was tampering involved. I’m not sure if it’s tied to Elon or just a few old boys down South who were up to no good. You know, the very things they accuse us of—like the Ruby Freeman and Shay Moss allegations—often turn out to be what they themselves have done. I’m anticipating backlash for this, but hey, I’ve been called crazy before, Don.
LEMON: Your instincts are telling you something happened.
GRIFFIN: My instincts are definitely suggesting something was amiss on their end.
LEMON: I can’t say I disagree. However, I’m an evidence-based person. I’d like to see hard proof. Something felt off, especially when someone claims, “We’ve got this.” How can you be so certain? It raises some eyebrows.
GRIFFIN: This will be the last election we have. We won’t see another one after this.
LEMON: Vote for me, and you’ll never have to vote again. Also, as you pointed out, every accusation is often a confession.

GRIFFIN: “I do not think Trump won in a free and fair election. I believe there was tampering. I don’t know if it was the Elon connection … My gut is telling me that something was up with them.”

Griffin and Lemon are not alone in their speculative assertions. Other notable leftist figures, including Rosie O’Donnell and California Representatives Maxine Waters and Eric Swalwell, have also suggested the presence of election tampering.
In the aftermath of Trump’s election victory, various leftists theorized on social media that Musk utilized his Starlink satellite networks to ‘disappear’ approximately 20 million votes that might have swung the election in favor of Kamala Harris.
