Former President of the United States Donald Trump refused to say the election was over while rehearsing a speech the day after the Congress riots in January last year.
This is evident from the video released in connection with the investigation of the congress riot. The video shows Trump rehearsing a speech on January 7, 2021.
First, Trump reads that the election is over, but stops his speech and says he doesn’t want to say the election is over.
– I don’t want to say that the elections are over.
– Congress has confirmed – without saying “the election is over”, is that OK?, Trump continues.
Nor does Trump want to say the rioters broke the law. In the recording, a frustrated Trump also bangs on the lectern.
Trump lost the November 2020 presidential election For Joe Biden. On January 6, Trump supporters broke into Congress to riot when the election results were being confirmed.
