Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday declined to acknowledge President-elect Joe Biden's victory and expressed support for President Donald Trump's denial of the 2020 election results.
As the Kentucky Republican, who was recently reelected to a seventh term, celebrated the electoral wins of Senate Republicans, he would not refute Trump's position. Due to the closeness of the races in Wisconsin and Georgia, recounts are expected to occur within the next few weeks. Biden leads by roughly 20,000 votes in Wisconsin and almost 11,000 votes in Georgia. The president's campaign team has launched election-related lawsuits in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
Cause of course he does. Another Constitutional Amendment we need to to require bills passed the House to be reviewed and voted on by the appropriate committee in the Senate, with the same for the House with bills from the Senate. No one person should have the power he's wielded.
clown
FRAUD
beckyblanton he was stating the legal self evident, the issue is why some many are trying to obscure that truth
With the Runoff in Georgia, Mitch might lose his majority and he will be a lame duck ?
Mitch - over my dead body will I give up my seat but this election is rigged.
This is all racism. Dog whistle. They don’t want the votes from Blacks and people of color to count. It pretty obvious.
Moscow Mitch, you are as bad as they come
Moscow Mitch has been a Banana Republican since 2016. His lust vfc for power is destroying our country
Business leaders need to say something. They need to pay attention to the rumblings of what Trump supporters are planning to do. They need to try to stop it. SPEAK OUT NOW! jimcramer cnbc
senatemajldr this must mean that votes cast in Kentucky's election, including those in your favor, are suspect particularly based upon the large differential from which you claim to have won. We definitely need a recount, court challenges, fraudulent ballots,..
Then neither should Democrat senators this cycle .
Well of course he does. He hates everything that America stands for, just like former President Trump.
This is the conclusion of 2020.. the final breakdown of an already corrupt system that now with the help of social media can buy any election without regard to the law. Its not about democrats or Republicans its about corporations now REALLY running this country.
Doesn't senatemajldr realize that the same ballots that won his re-election also voted realDonaldTrump out.? So, these illegal ballots are only partially invalid? ElectionResults2020
Karma, Mitch! We’re taking back the Senate!
Moscow Mitch ain’t ready to go to jail. Looking for that pardon from Trump.
Shocking no one, He is the Gravedigger of Democracy
Is anybody still surprised by treason turtle's endless placating of daddy trump?
If the Georgia run off proves that the two senate seats are democrat of course he supports a recount (which is fine) because Kamala will have the casting vote 🗳 dem house, senate, and president.
Thirsty for power
Fuck mitch
Thanks Kentucky you have screwed democracy once again.
Why have you accepting the results from the House and Senate elections - but not the Presidential election? Everything was on the same ballot! If there was rigging in one would not there be rigging in the other?
No surprise
