Scalise: ‘Let the legal process play out’

Asked by Wallace about whether he feels comfortable throwing out millions of votes from fellow Americans in key swing states, Scalise responded by saying “70-plus million votes are also at stake for President Trump.”

“Joe Biden has been going through a transition that even President Trump supported, while he’s also following what the court allows,” Scalise said. “There are legal challenges allowed.”

Scalise compared Trump’s legal battle to Bush v. Gore in 2000, adding “you didn’t see people ask prior to that to pass judgment before it was fully resolved.”

“There will be a president sworn in Jan. 20 but let’s let this legal process play itself out,” Scalise said.

Earlier, in an interview aired Sunday on “Fox & Friends Weekend,” Trump made clear his challenges to the presidential election results would continue, despite Friday’s Supreme Court decision.

“No, it’s not over. We keep going. And we’re going to continue to go forward,” Trump said in the interview, taped Saturday at the Army-Navy football game at West Point, N.Y.
