President Donald Trump’s niece Mary Trump called her uncle’s reaction to his election loss an “attempted coup” as his campaign filed a lawsuit in Pennsylvania arguing that the state had an “unconstitutional” voting system.
The author of the tell-all Trump family memoir Too Much and Never Enough also said President-Elect Joe Biden had won the election “legitimately and decisively” as she railed against “lie and spin” from her uncle’s camp.
“President-elect Joe Biden won legitimately and decisively. No matter how much Donald and his enablers lie and spin, nothing will change that. But they’re going to break as much as they can on the way out. Stay vigilant—this is an attempted coup.”
President Trump’s team have issued a raft of lawsuits complaining about state voting systems, Republican poll watchers being denied “meaningful access” in vote counting areas and the tallying of ballots days after the election since November 3.
The commander-in-chief’s re-election campaign issued the latest such lawsuit in Pennsylvania on Monday, arguing that the state had introduced an “illegal ‘two-tiered’ voting system” ahead of the 2020 vote. (Newsweek)
