According to a report on the US “Business Insider” website, this Thursday, many Republican lawmakers did not follow President Trump’s dissatisfaction with the 2020 US election, but urged everyone to remain calm.

On Thursday afternoon, Trump delivered an impromptu speech at the White House. On the basis of almost no evidence, he made several allegations regarding the transparency of the election and the improper handling of votes. Trump also claimed that he had won the election.

Trump said: “If you count legitimate votes, I can win easily. If you count illegal votes, they (Democrats) may try to steal our election.” Trump continued: “They tried to steal the election, they Trying to rig the election, we cannot let this happen. They are clearly trying to commit fraud, there is no doubt about it.”

After Trump’s speech, Republican lawmakers commented on Trump’s preemptive victory.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger, Republican of Illinois, tweeted immediately after Trump’s speech: “This is crazy.” Biden is expected to win in Illinois.

Kinsinger wrote on Twitter: “We hope that every vote will be counted, yes, every legitimate vote. But if you have real concerns about fraud, show evidence and Submit it to the court. Please stop disseminating false information that has been exposed.”

Senator Ben Sasse, Republican of Nebraska, said in a statement: “Americans vote in peaceful elections, and there will be no show until all the legal votes have been counted. Winner.” According to reports, Nebraska is a state Trump is very hopeful of winning.

Republican Senator Mitt Romney of Utah reiterated in a statement that the process of counting votes should be “long and frustrating for candidates (Trump).” He said: “I have confidence in democracy, in our Constitution, and in the American people.”

Will Hurd, a Texas congressman who served three consecutive terms, said: “A current president has disrupted our political process and questioned the legitimacy of countless Americans’ voices without evidence. It is dangerous and wrong, and it destroys the foundation upon which this country is built.”
