Trump: White House is mine
Trump: I’ll fight like hell to stay
I had two elections and won both. It’s amazing DONALD TRUMP OUTGOING US PRESIDENT
DONALD Trump declared he would “fight like hell” to hold on to the presidency as he made a last-ditch bid to reverse his election defeat.
The President, who lost to Democrat Joe Biden, told a rally in Georgia: “I’ve had two elections. I’ve won both of them. It’s amazing.
“They ’re not taking this
White House. You watch what happens over the next couple of weeks.”
Thousands of supporters will today descend on Washington, DC to protest over the TRIUMPH Joe Biden was elected next President election result, which Trump claims was “stolen” from him. Officials fear manyy demonstrators will be armed and called out the Nati National Guard as shops and b businesses boarded up their p premises. Police chief Robert Rob Contee said: “There are people pe intent on coming to our city armed.” The President appeared a in Georgia on Mond Monday night to campaign for the two t Republican candidates in yesterday’s crucial Senate Sena runoff. If the Democrats beat Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, Trump will have lost Republicans the House of Representatives, the Senate and the Presidency in his term.
He used his rally in Georgia to repeat baseless grievances about the outcome of the election, spouting conspiracy theories and making personal attacks on Democrats, the media and Georgia’s Republican officials.
At a Congressional session today, Vice President Mike Pence is set to announce Biden the election winner.
But Trump told the rally : “I hope Mike Pence comes through for us. He’s a great guy. Of course if he doesn’t come through I won’t like him quite as much.”
Biden won 306 Electoral College votes to Trump’s 232.
Thirteen Republican senators plan to challenge some of the states’ Electoral College counts, which would delay the election being certified.
On Saturday, Trump pressured Georgia Secretar y of State, Brad Raffensperger, to “find 11,780 votes”.
A leaked tape of their call led Democrats to demand an investigation into Trump’s alleged “election crimes”.
