00:00 Thank you very much for being here.
00:01 I really believe this is a very sad day for America.
00:04 This should never happen.
00:06 If you challenge an election, you should be
00:08 able to challenge an election.
00:09 I thought the election was a rigged election, a
00:11 stolen election.
00:13 And I should have every right to do that.
00:15 As you know, you have many people that you've
00:17 been watching over the years do the same thing,
00:19 whether it's Hillary Clinton or Stacey Abrams
00:21 or many others.
00:23 When you have that great freedom to challenge, you
00:26 have to be able to.
00:27 Otherwise, you're going to have very dishonest
00:29 elections.
00:29 What has taken place here is a travesty of justice.
00:33 We did nothing wrong.
00:33 I did nothing wrong.
00:35 And everybody knows it.
00:36 I've never had such support.
00:38 And that goes with the other ones, too.
00:40 What they're doing is election interference.
00:41 They're trying to interfere with an election.
00:44 There's never been anything like it in our
00:46 country before.
00:48 This is their way of campaigning.
00:49 And this is one instance, but you have three other
00:52 instances.
00:53 It's election interference.
00:55 So I want to thank you for being here.
00:57 We did nothing wrong at all.
00:59 And we have every right, every single right, to
01:03 challenge an election that we think is dishonest,
01:05 that we think is very dishonest.
01:07 So thank you all very much, and I'll see you
01:09 very soon.
01:10 Thank you very much.
