Trump Refuses To Accept Biden's Win As Transition Proceeds

WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump on Wednesday baselessly claimed anew that he had won the election and uttered repeated falsehoods as he called into an event held by Pennsylvania Republicans to investigate unproven allegations of voter fraud.

This was an election that we won easily. We won it by a lot,” Trump declared to the group gathered at a hotel in Gettysburg. Trump, in fact, lost to President-elect Joe Biden by about 150,000 votes in the state, and Pennsylvania certified Biden as the winner on Tuesday.

The Pennsylvania event was the latest attempt by Trump and his lawyer Rudy Giuliani, a former New York City mayor, to try to cast doubt on the results of the democratic election, even as the formal transition process has begun and a growing number of Republicans are recognizing Biden as president-elect. Similar events have been scheduled in Arizona and Michigan.

State election officials across the county and international observers have said there is no evidence of widespread voter fraud, and Trump’s legal team has lost repeatedly in court, in addition to making numerous elementary errors.

Wednesday's event coordinated by neighborhood Republicans, including Pennsylvania state Sen. Doug Mastriano, a candid Trump ally, accompanied features of an official hearing



banners, a hammer, and witnesses who affirmed face to face and by telephone. 

Among them was an exceptional visitor the president who at one point had been relied upon to go to face to face, however didn't after another individual from his legitimate group declared that he had tried positive for the Covid Wednesday morning. 

Trump represented around 11 minutes by means of a telephone held up to a mouthpiece by his legal advisor Jenna Ellis and demanded again that the political decision had been manipulated" for Biden.

This election has to be turned around,” he stated.

It was yet another stunning declaration from an American president advocating overturning a democratic election and the voters’ will because he wants to stay in power.

The hotel where the Senate Majority Policy Committee met is about a mile from the scene of Picketts Charge, where Union troops repelled a desperate Confederate attack in July 1863. It helped turn the tide of the American Civil War against the slave-owning South.

The Trump campaign on Wednesday asked the U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals for the chance for Giuliani to give oral arguments in its appeal over the vote count in Pennsylvania. The court has not yet said if it will hear arguments.
