President Donald Trump had a sympathetic crowd laughing as he uttered a vulgar take on his election at a Kennedy Center board dinner Monday.

Trump, who purged the board at the prestigious performing arts center in D.C. in February and made himself chairman, was there for the unveiling of the coming season’s shows.

But during his speech, he celebrated his own part in securing the 2028 Olympics and the 2026 soccer World Cup for the USA, HuffPost reported.

His role would have been forgotten if Joe Biden hadn’t stolen the 2020 election from him, he said — repeating his often-used lies — as he would already be out of office.

“And then they rigged the election, and then I said, ‘You know what I’ll do? I’ll run again and I’ll shove it up their a..,’” he said.

The audience roared with laughter.

“So if they would’ve left us alone, and wouldn’t have cheated on the election, and wouldn’t have rigged it, I would’ve been retired right now,” he went on.

“I would’ve been happily doing something else, and instead they have me for four more years, can you believe that?”
