"Predictably, the media ran around with its hair on fire," he said. "One journalist said, ‘the president has crossed the election integrity rubicon.'"

"I mean, you’ve got to laugh at the hyperbole and hysteria," added Jarrett.

The president made waves on Thursday after tweeting the 2020 presidential election could be “fixed” and “rigged” because of suspected risks in plans for nationwide, universal mail-in ballots.

“With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???” he wrote.

Trump also warned delays in tabulating mail-in ballot results, including from lost ballots, could mean the election winner wouldn't be known for weeks or even months after Election Day.
