WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 30: Eric Trump and Lara Trump attend the State of the Union address in the chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives January 30, 2018 in Washington, DC. This is the first State of the Union address given by U.S. President Donald Trump and his second joint-session address to Congress.
On Wednesday, Eric Trump held a press conference and claimed without evidence that President Donald Trump won the presidential election by capturing the state of Pennsylvania.
Eric Trump claimed without any supporting evidence that the Democrats were “cheating” in the election and committing voter fraud. He said that the Trump campaign would file a lawsuit aimed to stop the ballot counting in Pennsylvania.
“We’re going to win Pennsylvania, but they’re trying to cheat us out of it because they know it’s their only path to victory,” he said. “We are going to file a suit in Pennsylvania. It is the last thing that we wanted to do, it’s the last thing my father wanted to do. But this is rampant corruption. It can’t happen. It’s not fair. This isn’t democracy.”
Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani backed the president’s son and President-elect Joe Biden and the Democratic party.

“This is beyond anything I have ever seen before,” he said. “Do you think we’re stupid? Do you think we’re fools? You know something, Democrats do think you’re stupid. And they do think you’re fools. That’s why you get called ‘deplorable’ and ‘chumps.”
“We’re going to stick with this. We’re going to win this election. We’ve actually won it. It’s just a matter of counting the votes fairly,” Giuliani declared.
