I salute senator Lankford, Loeffler, Braun, and Daines and I'm sure others who, in the light of the day's outrage, have withdrawn their objection. For any who remain insistent on an audit in order to satisfy the many people who believe that the election was stolen, I'd offer this perspective — no Congressional audit is ever going to convince these voters, particularly when the President will continue to say that the election was stolen. The best way we could show respect for the voters who were upset is by telling them the truth.
That's the burden, that's the duty of leadership. The truth is that President-elect Biden won the election, President Trump lost. I have had that experience myself. It's no fun. (en) |
