Sen. Joni Ernst called Trump campaign attorney Sidney Powell's comment that candidates "paid to have the system rigged" in their elections "offensive" and "absolutely outrageous." In an interview Thursday, Ernst said claims of voter fraud are discouraging to voters and may hurt Republican turnout in the Georgia runoff races because Trump voters doubt the system.
"That is an offensive comment for those of us that do stand up and represent our state in a dignified manner," Ernst said. "We believe in honesty... to insinuate that Republican and Democratic candidates paid to throw off this election I think is absolutely outrageous. And I do take offense to that. You know, I have fought for my country. I've worn our nation's uniform to protect the values and freedoms that our nation espouses and to have that accusation just offhandedly thrown out there just to confuse our voters across the United States, I think that is absolutely wrong."

“That is an offensive comment for those of us that do stand up“
THEN stop sitting down, stand up and defend your party and the leader that kept your seat for you. DJT!
Exactly who Rudy was referencing by “people not paying attention” to the mountain of affidavits.” She’s not capable of understanding how the fraud was introduced, injected, and now maintained.
Corrupt backstabber.
Proof, even more so.
Illegal vote harvesting operations have both democrats and republicans as clients.
At least according to the undercover video of vote harvester Raquel Rodriguez:
Election integrity and ballot security measures seem to draw attacks from democrats and mainly “lip service” from republicans—maybe because professional politicians of all stripes don’t benefit from corruption of elections.
Can you prove they didn’t do it Ernst???
Me thinks she doth protest too much.
Once a RINO always a RINO.
You called a “Democrat”. That’s about as insulting as can be.
*Do* benefit, that is.
Offensive, but true.
This is all about the Georgia runoffs. Ernest couldn’t care less about POTUS and is worried MAGA voters are going to care as much about the GA runoffs as the GOPe did about POTUS.
Key quote: “Ernst said claims of voter fraud are discouraging to voters and may hurt Republican turnout in the Georgia runoff races because Trump voters doubt the system.”
Tough. If da shoe fits, wear it.
Otherwise, get on board or STFU.
joni shows her colors. Just another political hack.
She is a woman. Cracked.
She’s tantruming lashing out because no doubt the GOP Senate got some bad poll numbers about Senate runoffs in GA.
Another RINO outs herself
Perfect example of power corrupting.
6 years ago, it was I’ll castrate the pigs.
Now it’s, corruption allegations are offensive.
You’re on the wrong side of history, Joni. 6 years from now, it will be bacon time.
After Trump dragged her across the finish line.
We believe in dishonesty see election.
Give it a rest, Joni. John Kerry and a number of other military officers with quite questionable levels of patriotism have also worn our country's uniform.
