[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the People Power Party, criticized U.S. President Donald Trump on the 6th, telling him to "get a grip" after Trump raised allegations of election fraud as the U.S. presidential race turned unfavorable.


On the same day, Ha posted on his Facebook, saying to President Trump, "I want to see you maintain dignity befitting the world's strongest president."


He said, "Trump declares victory and then claims election fraud. He declares victory and then demands a halt to vote counting," adding, "If he won, why is he asking to stop the counting? Why is he insisting on election fraud when he says he won?"


Earlier, on the 4th (local time), President Trump declared victory and predicted his win, but as postal votes were counted in battleground states, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden emerged as the likely winner, causing Trump to show signs of distress. As the situation turned unfavorable, Trump's camp filed lawsuits to stop the vote count and requested a recount in Wisconsin.

Regarding this, Ha said, "Unlike South Korea, past U.S. presidents did not have unhappy final years. They had a graceful end," criticizing, "Trump will be the only exception."


He continued, "The United States, once the most advanced political country, has fallen into a political backward country overnight due to choosing the wrong leader," and pointed out, "Now that Trump is cut loose, Kim Jong-un will not even play along, and the only person who might become a friend is probably Min Mo from South Korea."


The 'Min Mo' mentioned here appears to refer to Min Kyung-wook, a former member of the United Future Party (the predecessor of the People Power Party), who claims that the April 15 general election was fraudulent.



Previously, Min said on his Facebook the day before, "President Trump will now feel that South Korea's April 15 election fraud is not just a suspicion, conspiracy theory, or claim."
