And we will see this one day as the outrageous attack on our system, on the prior president, on scores of people that it truly is," he added. And the courts upheld the will of the people." "He ignored the will of the voters. But I always felt that after the election he didn't seem to be listening and I didn't think it was, you know, that I was inclined not to stay around if he wasn't listening to advice from me or his other cabinet secretaries." And it seemed to be based on the dynamic that at the end of the evening a lot of Democratic votes came in, which changed the vote counts in certain states. “He took the number of applications for the Republican primary and he compared it to the number of absentee votes cast in the general election. “I reiterated that they wasted a whole month on these claims, on the Dominion voting machines, and they were idiotic claims,” he said. “And on the other hand, you know, when I went into this and would you know, tell him how crazy some of these allegations were, there was never an indication of interest in what the actual facts were.” “The mayor was definitely intoxicated, but I do not know his level of intoxication when he spoke with the president, for example,” Miller said in videotaped testimony aired at the hearing. “We found that the suitcase full of ballots, the alleged black suitcase that was being seen pulled from under the table was actually an official lockbox where ballots were kept safe,” he said. “President Trump continued to push the stolen election narrative, even though he and his allies knew that their litigation efforts making the same claim had failed,” she added. “The problem is that Mastriano threw out this number and what he did was he mixed apples and oranges,” Barr testified.
