Donald Trump on Saturday called on GOP lawmakers to rally around him to deny President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory, claiming that Biden “didn’t win the election.”
In his quest to enlist more Republican lawmakers into his fight to overturn the vote results, trump tweeted a link to a New York Post editorial criticizing “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert for offering “wet media kisses” during an interview with Biden, instead of hammering the president-elect with questions about his son Hunter Biden.
“He didn’t win the Election,” Trump tweeted. “He lost all 6 Swing States, by a lot. They then dumped hundreds of thousands of votes in each one, and got caught. Now Republican politicians have to fight so that their great victory is not stolen. Don’t be weak fools!”
Twitter flagged the post as all 50 states have certified Biden’s victory and the Electoral College affirmed it in a vote on Monday.

Trump’s legal team has lost at least 60 cases in their election challenge, which the U.S. Supreme Court has also refused to hear after 126 Republican lawmakers signed on to a lawsuit filed by Texas attorney general Ken Paxton.
