In an interview with “Fox & Friends,” President Trump said that he and his campaign will continue with their legal challenges against the election, despite the Electoral College casting their votes.
Trump said that even though the Supreme Court recently rejected a case brought on by Texas against several key swing states over their election procedures, he’s not done yet.
“No, it’s not over. We keep going and we’re going to continue to go forward. We have numerous local cases,” said the president while still claiming that he won Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Georgia.
President Trump was asked about the Electoral College vote and he said that he understands there is a time crunch.
“We’re going to speed it up as much as we can, but you can only go so fast,” said Trump. “They give us very little time. But we caught them, as you know, as fraudulent, dropping ballots, doing so many things, nobody can even believe it.”
“This wasn’t like a close election,” Trump explained. “You look at Georgia. We won Georgia big. We won Pennsylvania big. We won Wisconsin big. We won it big.”
Trump expressed his worries about the U.S. “having an illegitimate president.”
When asked whether he would be attending Biden’s inauguration, Trump would only say, “I don’t want to talk about that.”
He also lashed out at the Supreme Court for throwing out the Texas case claiming that Georgia Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin changed their election statutes. The court’s reasoning was that the state did not have standing to sue over this issue.
“The Supreme Court, all they did is say we don’t have standing,” Trump argued. “So they’re saying essentially the president of the United States and Texas and these other states, great states, they don’t have standing.”
The Supreme Court explained their decision by saying that “Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections.”
