Powerful Republican politicians insisted Thursday and Friday on President Donald Trump’s senseless lies that simply counting votes is actually an election robbery.
With confusing statements that left a lot of room for Trump’s unfounded accusations of widespread fraud and violations of counting procedures, Republicans helped in their efforts to undermine confidence in election results. Statements came after Trump’s youth erupt in public frustration because more Republicans in the mainstream were helping their parents.
There is no evidence to recommend that there was widespread voter fraud or some effort by election officials to exclude Republican observers from the counting procedure in the states, but the maximum number of elected Republicans in the House and Senate have hinted that, in fact, Trump could be on anything with his false statements.
That’s how the American votes for the result.

In an interview with Laura Ingraham of Fox News on Thursday night, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) noted that House Republicans had had an elegant afternoon on Tuesday, retaining existing seats, which, paradoxically, he said. more fraud. “
“How would President Trump lose in an environment like this?”asked rhetorically.
“President Trump won this election,” McCarthy later lied in the interview, before urging his supporters to make noise about . . . something, but specifying what.
“So each and every listener doesn’t close,” McCarthy said. “Don’t be silent about it. We can’t let that happen before our eyes. We’ll have to unite. And you don’t have to. Be a Republican. If you believe that [that] each and every legal vote will have to count, if you are in the American process, join us and we can avoid that.

He’s not alone.
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) admitted to Fox News’ Sean Hannity that Republican lawmakers in Pennsylvania can simply forget the electoral effects and characterize the state’s election votes to Donald Trump.
“I think it will all be on the table,” Graham said. “The elections in Philadelphia are as twisted as a snake. “

Appearing just after Graham on Hannity’s show, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) falsely stated that they “do allow election observers” in Philadelphia.
“The explanation for why you don’t need observers is that to do something you don’t need to be observed,” he said, adding, “They’re paving the way to potentially steal an election. “
“We want the Justice Department to make the law,” Cruz said.
Some Republicans were a little more explicit. Former House President Newt Gingrich, for example, warned that federal agents vote legally.

And the new senator elected to Alabama, former school football coach Tommy Tuberville, seemed to completely lose the false scandal he sought to push.
Tuberville, instead of focusing on issues of speaking falsely about voter fraud or supervision, compared to elections in which legally cast votes are counted on a football game where time runs out.
“Other Americans deserve transparency and the wisdom that the integrity of our votes be preserved,” he said, after saying it was to count the ballots.
