I wouldn’t say that he “admitted” it so much as he “said” it, or to be more precise, he “bullshitted” it. I could “admit” that I’m a giraffe, but that don’t make it so.

He won the election, and no amount of BlueAnon conspiracy theory can change that.

I wouldn't say he admitted it either. I'd say he's bragging about it.

He may even believe in his heart that he won by rigging the election.

I’d say he rigged it fair and square. He rigged it in the traditional way that bourgeois elections are. Even before Trump entered politics, well-respected studies have shown that this is an oligarchy, not a democracy.
