Sen. Lankford still beholden to Trump
It was not enough for Sen. Lankford to have violated his oath to GOD and the American people when he swore to be an "impartial juror" during the impeachment trial by giving multiple press conferences as a Trump advocate as the trial was going on. (He also swore to protect the Constitution "against all enemies foreign and domestic."
In his most recent Lankford Letter, the Senator discusses the recent election and writes: "Some states this year had thousands of people who voted who were not residents of their states, voted twice, voted after they were dead, or voted even though they are not legally present in the US." Says who? Besides the Senator and Trump? Republican election officials have all denied serious irregularities and Trump's own chief of cyber security said it was the most secure election in history. Show us the evidence, Senator.
Senator Lankford further states: "I will keep encouraging the Trump team to challenge the results in court and in each state. That is the place where elections are determined." No Senator, elections are determined by the people of the fifty states via their state's rules. The courts you'd have install Trump have profoundly rejected 60+ lawsuits brought by Trump's crackerjack legal team.
It is petty and disrespectful of the Senator not to refer to the obvious winner of the election as President-Elect Biden. Instead, Lankford encourages a would-be tyrant to try continue to undermine democracy.
