Trump says he would win California if ‘Jesus … was the vote counter’

Former President Trump suggested during an interview with television psychologist “Dr. Phil” McGraw that he would win California if Jesus Christ was the one counting ballots.
“Democrats play a different game. And you have ballot harvesting, but you also have people getting ballots,” he said during the interview. “I mean, in California, you have people getting seven ballots.”
“If Jesus Christ came down and was the vote counter, I would win California, OK?” the former president added later. “In other words, if we had an honest vote counter, a really honest vote counter, I do great with Hispanics, great, I mean at a level no Republican has ever done, but if we had an honest vote counter, I would win California.”
Seemingly surprised, McGraw asked, “You think so?”
Trump, the GOP nominee for president, reaffirmed his claim, in part blaming mail-in voting.
