Trump says for first time that Biden 'won,' adds that he is not conceding

"You can see how this is going to play out. Trump is taking the stance he is, to get "the ignorant mob" who react to Life, worked up into a froth, hiding behind a made up lie, that the mob swallows. He's going to make this bigger, and bigger, agitate both sides more and more, until it's full scale Civil War, and WE ALL LOSE. Talk about psychopath..."

President Trump for the first time on Sunday signaled that Joe Biden "won" the 2020 presidential election that he continues to say was "rigged" against him, adding that he is not conceding the race.

"He won because the Election was Rigged," Trump tweeted in response to a monologue on Fox News' "Watters' World."

The tweet comes eight days after the Fox News Decision Desk named Biden as the projected winner. Trump has not yet conceded, and his campaign has deployed lawyers to key battleground states to contest the ballot-counting processes there.

Some on Twitter wondered if they had just read a concession statement from Trump.

"Did a just wake up to Trump's version of a concession?" journalist Yashar Ali tweeted.

Twitter quickly flagged the tweet with a label that reads, "This claim about election fraud is disputed."

Trump later clarified the tweet by saying Biden "only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA."

"I concede NOTHING!" Trump said. "We have a long way to go."
