(Tony Sifert, Headline USA) Former President Donald Trump has issued a statement calling into question claims by the Speaker of the Wisconsin State Assembly that, although there was “widespread fraud” in the 2020 election, there is nothing the Wisconsin legislature can do about it.
“Speaker Robin Vos, of the Great State of Wisconsin, just said there was ‘widespread fraud’ in the 2020 Presidential Election, but that the State Legislature cannot do anything about it,” Trump wrote. “Wrong!”
In a meeting with election skeptics Wednesday, Vos confirmed widespread fraud in the 2020 election in Wisconsin, according to the Wisconsin State Journal.
“I think there was widespread fraud, and I think we are going to see more and more data that comes out,” Vos said.
But the Speaker then went on to say that there was nothing he or the Wisconsin legislature could do about it.
“There are some people who think that the Legislature has a unilateral ability to overturn the election,” Vos continued. “We do not.”
Trump disagreed.
“If you rob the diamonds from a jewelry store, if you get caught, you have to give the diamonds back, votes should be no different,” the former president wrote.
Last week, Trump called for Vos to “exercise his moral duty” in response to Justice Michael Gableman’s investigative report on the 2020 election in Wisconsin, which uncovered rampant voter fraud funded by oligarch Mark Zuckerberg.
On Thursday, Trump pointed to a piece of legislation already “in the Wisconsin State Assembly that calls for the decertification of the 2020 Election and reclaiming of Wisconsin’s 10 electoral votes.”
The legislation at issue — LRB-5792 — “acknowledges that illegality took place in conducting the 2020 general election and reclaims Wisconsin’s 10 fraudulent electoral ballots cast for Joseph R. Biden and Kamala Harris.”
Recognizing the crucial role played in 2020 by the Zuckerberg-funded Center for Tech and Civic Life, the Assembly also called for “a full forensic physical and cyber audit of the 2020 general election.”
