The white house insists President Trump lost the popular vote in november because millions of illegal aliens cast unlawful ballots for hillary clinton. Margaret brennan reports. The comment that he made, he said 3 to 5 million people, you know, cost could have voted illegally based on the studies hes seen. Reporter white house Spokesman Sean Spicer said President Trump told congressional leaders yesterday that he lost the popular vote by nearly three million votes because of widespread fraud. He did win the electoral college. Hes very comfortable with his win he must be troubled with it since hes bringing it up. I think hes having a discussion with some folks and mentioned something in passing which has been a longstanding belief that hes maintained. Its worth clarifying whether illegal ballots or illegal i think studies, there is one that came out of few in 2008, that showed 14 of people that voted were noncitizens. There are other studies that have been presented to him. Its a belief he maintains.
