While Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed the 2020 election was rigged against him, the former president admitted in a Sunday interview that he was told those claims were false — years before he was indicted for allegedly attempting to overturn the election in his favor.

“It was my decision, but I listened to some people,” Trump, 77, said of making his false claims of election fraud, during a wide-ranging interview that aired Sunday on NBC's Meet the Press.

Trump said that, while he was "listening to different people" who said the election was not rigged against him, he ultimately decided it had been, and continued making the claims.

The former president has been indicted four times since leaving office, including twice on the federal level
