The loser of last year’s election said the commission should take a closer look at “the fraudulent 2020 presidential election.” Trump reiterated in the statement, again without providing evidence, that he was robbed of the victory. The billionaire gives the press conference at his Florida country retreat.
Trump, a Republican, lost by more than 7 million votes to his Democratic challenger Joe Biden on November 3 last year. He sometimes hints that he could run for president again in 2024.
On January 6, thousands of Trump supporters stormed the seat of the US parliament in an attempt to prevent the ratification of Biden’s victory. Shortly before that, the ex-president had called on them to fight “like hell.” Five people were killed.
Trump, meanwhile, is trying by all means to prevent the House of Representatives committee from acquiring documents that could get him into trouble.
