Trump meets with lawmakers to push election fraud claims

Pres. Trump is meeting with lawmakers to push his false election fraud claims. Some in the White House fear the finals days of the Trump presidency saying “no one is sure where this is heading.” Conspiracist lawyer Sidney Powell, who was dumped from his official legal team, along with fired national security adviser Michael Flynn and onetime chief strategist Steve Bannon have found themselves in the Oval Office or on the phone advising the President on how to reverse his election loss, even floating the idea of declaring martial law. Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff, Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, joins AC360 to react to the President’s last-ditch effort to overturn the election results and says if Trump can stay in power through stealing, lying, and cheating, he will do it. Plus, the U.S. has surpassed 18 million Covid-19 cases as a new coronavirus variant was discovered in the United Kingdom. Dr. Peter Hotez is the Co-Director of the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Children’s Hospital and the Dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. He joins AC360 to discuss whether or not Americans should be worried about the new variant. Airdate: December 21, 2020 Guests: Rep.
