WASHINGTON, United States – President Donald Trump is urging supporters to amass in Washington on January 6 for a last-ditch rally to pressure Congress to not certify Joe Biden’s election victory. ADVERTISEMENTTrump tweeted twice this weekend urging supporters to attend, labelling the election “the biggest SCAM in our nation’s history.”“See you in Washington, DC, on January 6th. Trump appears to hope that the protestors could pressure Congress to reject the final count of state-based electors and reverse his election loss. Meanwhile Trump and supporters have pressured Pence to unilaterally reject some pro-Biden states’ elector certificates, a power legal experts say Pence does not have. “It is a scam and it is going to disappoint the people that believe this election was stolen,” he told CNN.
