'I have not spoken with the president-elect,' Blackburn said. 'We did have the vice president come to the floor, the vice president-elect come to the floor this week to cast a vote. I was presiding at the time. Didn't get to speak with her.'

The Tennessee senator's comments Friday stand in stark contrast to remarks she has made the past two weeks, suggesting that Trump was still likely to be reelected president despite Biden leading both the popular vote and in the Electoral College, based on results that have not yet been certified in every state.

"I will say now is the time for the Trump campaign, if they have their information that they need to present in court, now is the time that they need to be taking that evidence to court," Blackburn said in the interview. "There will be a time to do that," Blackburn said. "Right now it is important that we settle things. I think if every legal vote is counted, Donald Trump would get four more years."

We finally had a president that was doing something about our traitorous trade and immigration policies – But the corrupt manipulative media, establishment puppet politicians and their masters have been fighting the American People tooth and nail every step of the way.

It’s not rocket science – The sudden economic downturn this year was obviously caused by the Corona Virus and anyone with half a brain isn't buying that other nonsense – We were finally going in the right direction before China released COVID-19.

– It's about time that America starts holding globalist establishment puppet politicians and the corrupt manipulative media accountable.

One thing that became obvious during and after the last two presidential elections, is that puppet politicians, the corrupt manipulative media and their globalist masters just consider the American people to be collateral damage in their game of globalization and cheap wages.

– China released COVID-19 just in time to lock down our entire country and completely change our election procedures, which removed any real verification of our voting process.

Speaking of Science Deniers – That 'Climate Change/Carbon Tax' nonsense is just more corporate globalist propaganda to try and keep manufacturing in cheap high polluting countries like China, India, and Mexico.

She couldn't get any dumber. It's like she's writing 'How to be Dumber Than a Sack of Doorknobs for Dummies' based on personal experience.

What a weird time we live in when someone calling the president-elect the President-elect makes news headlines.

She hasn't spoken to Trump or Pence yet They are the ones she needs to be seeking.

Bonkers how cowed the GOP moderates are that they can't call Biden, PresidentElect. PresidentElectJoeBiden
