New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman tweeted Tuesday that Trump has been telling confidants that he expects to be reinstated as president by August as a result of ongoing election audits in states like Arizona and Georgia.
released last week found that 64 percent of Republicans believe that the 2020 election was "rigged and stolen from Trump," but the courts have not been as kind to the former president, almost unanimously turning back his legal challenges to the results . Recounts and official audits of the votes in several states have also failed to overturn President Biden's victory in both the popular vote and the Electoral College.
"He can simply be reinstated," Powell said of Trump, eliciting loud cheers despite the fact that Trump cannot simply be reinstated. Michael Flynn, the retired U.S. Army lieutenant general and former national security adviser who was forced to resign from the Trump administration after lying to Vice President Mike Pence about his interactions with the Russian ambassador to the U.S., Sergey Kislyak, floated another possibility.
In a post later in the day on Parler, Flynn claimed the media had misrepresented the meaning of his comments.
