In interview, Trump says he’ll continue to challenge election
WASHINGTON — On Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” President Donald Trump rehashed a litany of largely unfounded allegations about the Nov. 3 election without offering new evidence for his claim that millions of votes across several battleground states were fraudulent.
He signaled that his legal options may be running out, but he suggested there was no “drop-dead” date for his challenges to finally come to an end. And he acknowledged that the fight to overturn his defeat “probably” won’t reach the Supreme Court.
“It’s very hard to get a case to the Supreme Court,” Trump said in the Fox News interview, which was conducted by telephone. “I probably can’t get a case.”
Trump’s legal team has shrugged off numerous refuffs in courts by saying it’s all part of a march to the Supreme Court.
In Sunday’s lengthy interview, the president largely repeated unfounded allegations of large-scale fraud, frequently egged on by the show’s host, Maria Bartiromo.
Trump also lashed out Sunday at various political enemies, including Georgia’s top two elections officials, both Republicans — Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and Gov. Brian Kemp. The two men have certified Trump’s defeat in the state.
“I’m ashamed that I endorsed him,” Trump said of Kemp.
Trump also endorsed Raffensperger in 2018 as someone who would be “a fantastic secretary of state.” On Thursday, the president called the Republican an “enemy of the people.”
