Few Republicans push back against false claims about the election
See BS ^ | Nov 20, 2020 | Grace Segers

Few Republicans have spoken out publicly against President Trump's refusal to concede the election he definitively lost, as he and his legal team continue to promote baseless claims of voter fraud.

Mr. Trump's campaign has launched lawsuits in several states won by President-elect Joe Biden alleging voting discrepancies, but nearly all of these challenges have been unsuccessful. Nonetheless, the president's legal team has continued to baselessly claim that fraud occurred. In a rambling, often incoherent news conference on Thursday, the president's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani falsely said that Democrats were attempting to steal the election...

But a few Senate Republicans have spoken against Mr. Trump and his attorneys' lies about the election. Senators Mitt Romney, Ben Sasse and Joni Ernst criticized the president for undermining Americans' faith in the democratic process and refusing to provide evidence to back his politically-motivated and false claims that the election was rigged.

Of course McCain 2.0 (Mitt) is getting facetime trashing Trump.

We’re truly in deep shite when leftists get final say over what’s “false”.

Where is the proof he definitely lost? There are many affidavits that say there was cheating. There is none that state there wasn’t any cheating. She is a liar.

They didn’t protect Joe Biden for nothing.

That’s why we will need to do (to borrow a catch phrase from the dims) whatever is necessary by any means necessary for this not to happen.

All those so-called ‘Republicans’ make me ashamed.

Their level of ‘non support’ for the President means they are ALSO in on the crooked election con.

There’s no other way to interpret what they do and say

Maybe because they are true claims?

Does any reasonable person think this is a one time event? If we don’t stop electronic ballot fraud now, it will be commonplace. With Trump, corrupt democrats just went too far due to Trump derangement so that it’s too obvious, but it won’t be long before they improve their cheating ability to make it more hidden and subtle.

The only reason this is happening is because someone has dirt on those folks for corruption/immorality and is holding it over their heads. There is NO other reason they would not fight for the team. They are totally corrupt.

Hmmmmmmm. I might detect a little bit of bias here.

>>to promote baseless claims of voter fraud.

Signed affidavits aren't “baseless”

Nothing the Republicans can say at this point really matters. The issue is in the hands of the lawyers who will either prevail or not.

Anti Republican conservatives whine because they cannot effect the outcome because they are powerless to do so. So, as usual, they get brownie points and self esteem enhancement by being critical of Republicans
