In his first rally since the US presidential election, Donald Trump continued to shout in Georgia last night that he would win the election, which he almost lost to Joe Biden, with the outgoing Republican still running for office. "Fraud".
Trump traveled to the state of Georgia to support two outgoing Republican senators facing a crucial Jan. 5 by-election. They jeopardize the majority of the US Senate and therefore the balance of power in Washington when Joe Biden takes office on January 20. If these senators, Kelly Lefler and David Perdue "do not win, nothing can stop" the Democrats, shouted Donald Trump. "You have no idea how much the situation will get worse," he continued.
However, he devoted most of his speech to the November 3 presidential election. "We will win this election," the outgoing president said in front of hundreds of supporters gathered outside Waldosta, with few wearing masks.
"They will try to convince us that we lost. We did not lose ", he said with the crowd shouting" We love you "and" Four more years ". "This election was rigged," Trump said.
The Republican tycoon has not admitted defeat by Biden and instead repeatedly denounces, without any evidence, widespread fraud. Courts across the US have dismissed heaps of lawsuits from his team of lawyers. At yesterday's rally, accompanied by his wife, Melania Trump, Trump recalled his November 3 election victories in key states, Florida and Ohio, and then added, contrary to the official result: "We also won Georgia, it was good. "
He again sharply criticized the Republican and his former ally, the governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp, and called on him to check the ballots again. Trump has also attacked Republicans who do not support him, including Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Rafensperger.
Biden became the first Democratic presidential candidate since winning Georgia in 1992. After a nationwide recount of ballots, including a painstaking manual recount of some 5 million ballots that showed no significant irregularities, the election result has been verified and validated, giving newly elected President Biden a landslide victory of 13.000 votes.
Earlier Saturday, Trump telephoned Kemp and tweeted that he was taking further steps in the tyrannical president's desperate battle to reverse his election defeat. After Kemp responded on twitter that he "publicly asked for the signature check three times," the Republican president said that was not enough and in a second tweet told him that the governor should immediately convene an emergency meeting of the state legislature.
In an unprecedented move in modern U.S. history, Trump's staff tried unsuccessfully to lead Republican-controlled legislatures in critical Biden-won states to ignore the election results and declare the Republican president the winner.
Biden won the election, securing 306 High Electors against Trump's 232. The Electorate will convene on December 14 to formalize the result.
