Earlier today (January 6), the outgoing US President Donald Trump revved-up his supporters at a rally near the White House, telling them: "We will never concede". Speaking prior to Congress assembling to count the electoral votes and officially certify Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential election, Trump urged his supporters to march on the Capitol, and even told the crowd "I'll be with you". Watch Trump's address in the video below: [[youtubewidget||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKDAp-4Hhs8]] Addressing the crowd at the 'Save America March', Trump once again continued falsely claim that the presidential election was rigged, that Biden did not win, and that Vice President Mike Pence can change the outcome of the election. As reported by <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-rally-electoral-college-vote-count/">CBS New</a>s, Trump said: "I hope Mike is going to do the right thing, I hope so. I hope so. Because if Mike Pence does the right thing, we win the election." He added: "[Pence] has the absolute right to do it. We're supposed to protect our country, support our country, support our Constitution, and protect our Constitution." <img class=" wp-image-12631584" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/01/15002dbd-pa-57418921.jpg" alt="" width="635" height="423" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: PA Images]] However, as reported by <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/trump-rally-speech-capitol-mcconnell-pence-b1783451.html">The Independent</a>, Mike Pence instead declared in a letter to members of Congress: "It is my considered judgment that my oath to support and defend the Constitution constrained me from claiming unilateral authority to determine which electoral votes should be counted and which should not." Additionally, Republican Senate majority leader <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/15f932cf-b8e5-4c24-b0d5-1ef903103a3c">Mitch McConnell stated</a> that the presidential election was "not actually particularly close" and that if the challenge by the president’s allies were successful it "would damage our republic forever". At the rally, Trump also stated that he would "never concede", telling cheering supporters: "We will never give up. We will never concede. "That doesn't happen. You don't concede when there's theft involved." Trump also used his speech to attack the mainstream media, telling the crowd: "Our media is not free. It’s not fair. It suppresses thought. It suppresses speech. It’s become the enemy of the people," Trump said. "It’s the biggest problem we have in this country." The POTUS then urged his supporters to march on the Capitol, CBS reports, and even told the crowd: "I'll be with you". Concluding his speech, Trump said: "Today is not the end — it’s just the beginning," <img class=" wp-image-12631583" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/01/dd4b93a7-pa-57409247.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="426" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: PA Images]] Prior to his speech, Trump took to Twitter to make baseless claims regarding the presidential election and make unfounded allegations that Georgia officials had been counting fraudulent votes.

Our Election Process is worse than that of third world countries!"
