The claim that Trump has won three elections is false. The sources show he won two presidential elections (2016 and 2024) and lost 2020 to Joe Biden, whose certified 306-232 Electoral College win was confirmed by the Electoral College.
What was said
… They are going to pay us to be affiliated with the United States. The president is crisscrossing the entire country, doing rallies, multiple rallies today. Is there anyone who works harder than President Trump on the campaign trail? Absolutely not. You have a man who's won three elections. Um, you know, uh, legacy media continues to attack him left and right, and what does he do? He wakes up at four o'clock in the morning. He outworks people that, you know, are half his age. And, you know, what does that say about his character? …
The Benny Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. IBTimes (Oct 2026) and USA Today's fact-check both state Trump has won two presidential elections, in 2016 and 2024, and that his 2020 claim is wrong because he lost to Biden.[1][2]
Contradicts. Indy100 (July 2026) reports Trump wrongly claimed he won three elections, noting the Constitution limits a person to two presidential terms and that his 2020 win claim is false.[3]
Contradicts. PolitiFact and Miller Center document that Biden won 2020 with 306 electoral votes to Trump's 232, with all states certified, so the 2020 election was not a Trump win.[4][5]
Context. Wikipedia's electoral history lists Trump's wins as 2016 and 2024, with 2020 a loss, consistent with the fact-checks.[6]
Context. The claim originates from a passage in which the speaker says 'You have a man who's won three elections'; the extraction faithfully reflects that wording, so the verdict grades the claim itself.
