People who still believe that Trump won the US election

Weeks after President-elect Joe Biden was declared the winner of the November elections, there remains a deep mistrust of the electoral process among many fervent Donald Trump supporters.

Trump sets an example for Mexico on electoral processes, but it sounds like an insult

President Donald Trump. Photo: Oliver Contreras / EFE In his strategy to justify his attacks on the United States electoral process, President Donald Trump now gave Mexico an example, but his comment sounds like an insult.

There is a saying that goes: "Much ado about nothing." It perfectly applies to Republicans in Congress who will oppose the certification of the triumph of President-elect Joe Biden this 6 of January.

In fact, Senator Josh Hawley (Missouri), the first to publicly reveal that he would challenge the process from the Senate, tries to qualify the movement of which he is part, which has in Ted Cruz (Texas) another visible leader. In an interview on Fox News, the youngest senator was c...
