Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) called on President Trump to concede his election loss to President-elect Joe Biden, saying he should "quit misleading" the American people.

“It’s past time for the president to accept the results of the election, quit misleading the American people, and repudiate mob violence,” Cotton said in a statement Wednesday evening.

“And the senators and representatives who fanned the flames by encouraging the president and leading their supporters to believe that their objections could reverse the election results should withdraw those objections,” he continued.

The remarks from Cotton, a key Trump ally, came hours after a mob of Trump supporters forced their way into the Capitol building around 2 p.m., prompting lawmakers to evacuate and suspend their tally of the Electoral College votes certifying Biden's victory.

Criminals must be deposed by the people, patriots, acting decisively. The penalty for treason is self-evident.

Did Cotton ever ask Lindsey to stop misleading the American people?

It didn’t fit their narrative, so they had to hide it.

I agree, but the criminals won the battle of who will be sworn in Jan 20. The coup succeeded.

Now “our” side is piling on too. Local talk shows, Levin, Fox, et al. Video I see are goons that aren’t usual Trump supporters. Never have they acted like that.

I don’t buy it.

And where were was law enforcement during BLM riots?

These people are not very smart.

75 million people backed Trump, and they are insulting every
one of them.

What a great marketing program for the party.

I’m out in a few days.

He only needs to be asked a single question.

Do you believe the election had complete integrity?

Cotton is s snake in the grass. He participated in the Sea Island Meeting in 2015 or 2016. Look it up.
