NEW: Senator Tom Cotton says he will support a commission to study the 2020 election and propose reforms, but will not oppose the counting of certified electoral votes because “the Founders entrusted our elections chiefly to the states—not Congress.”

“the Founders entrusted our elections chiefly to the states—not Congress.”

The Founders entrusted the state legislatures, not the governors.

And no it's not the same thing politically, the state legislatures not taking their power back to vote vs. them automatically having the power to vote for the slates of electors.

A politically Calculated Copout. Walking the line and hoping he will get credit for calling the FRAUD into question and hoping no one will notice his complete lack of balls in taking a position against the FRAUD.


Part of the Pols playbook...vote yes in committee, no on floor, vote no in committee and yes on floor so can take both sides of issue.

Very disheartening—some had thot he’d be a good contender in 2024...I think MAGA supporters are going to have a very long memory on this move.

The Founders didn’t tell us how to go to the bathroom either.

I assume he still does it anyway.

I’m not sure why people are surprised that Tom Cotton is not objecting. He’s Senator Walmart.

Cotton is Senator Walmart, and Walmart is China, but Sen. Cotton has always been tough on China in the past.

It was that blatant, even the crooks of that day couldn’t accept it. Todays Democrats are a different story.

“Especially interesting since Republicans had huge majorities in both houses of congress”

The 1872 Presidential election was between two factions of Republicans.

Its politics they will milk your anger over the election fraud for more money and more votes next election cycle.

Also that’s the Senator from Arkansas speaking the Senator from Walmart.

If he truly was tough on China, there is no way he could support Biden...

I remember in 2017 talking with Steve Bannon about Senators who truly supported Trump. I raised Cotton’s name & Steve said “no.”

Tomorrow’s Bannon’s War Room Pandemic show should be interesting!
