On Tuesday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that President-elect Joe Biden was not the election winner.
“There will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration,” Pompeo said of election loser, Donald Trump.
Pompeo reiterated the words spoken by Trump since the election – the baseless allegations that Biden won due to voter fraud and illegal activity, stating that it was important to count “every legal vote.”
“When the process is complete, there will be electors selected,” he continued. “There’s a process. the Constitution lays it out pretty clearly.”
