The Republican Majority Leader in the Senate says Trump "has the right to investigate the allegations."

The leader of the Republican majority in the Senate on Monday maintained his support for President of the United States Donald Trump – who refuses to acknowledge his defeat against Joe Biden – and affirmed that the president “is within his right” to investigate allegations of irregularities in the elections. “President Trump has a 100% right to investigate allegations of wrongdoing and weigh his legal actions,” said Mitch McConnell on Capitol Hill at a time when Trump’s unprecedented stance not to recognize his defeat stirs up the political debate in the United States. The Republican who leads the majority caucus said that “if this time there had been an irregularity of a magnitude that affected the result, then all Americans should want them to be exposed.” “If Democrats are confident that this has not happened, then they have no reason to fear additional scrutiny,” added McConnell. Trump and his team insist the race is not over and several Republican lawmakers have asked the president that does not recognize his defeat, despite the fact that the US media projected on Saturday that Biden won the elections with 279 electoral votes, surpassing the 270 necessary for his victory The president launched several offensives in states where the race was very close and especially in the bastion Key Pennsylvania, where Biden has a 45,000 vote lead, or 0.67%, according to the media. McConnell’s future as Majority Leader is on hold, but Democrats’ expectations are increasingly lowered. to take control of the Lower House from them.”The president has every right to investigate the allegations and request a recount, according to what the law says,” he insisted and then asked the Democrats not to “preach” on how the president should immediately and happily accept the preliminary results Accusing them of having spent four years “refusing to accept the validity of the results of the last election (2016).” “A couple of legal inquiries by the president do not imply the end of the republic,” he concluded .
