On Nov 27th, 2020, US President Donald Trump publicly stated that Biden was not in charge, and neither was Trump. The comments drew ire from some but puzzlement from many, leaving people wondering what the statement could possibly mean. Sidney Powell, the attorney who has been serving as an informal adviser to the Trump campaign, has clarified what Trump meant.
Contrary to popular belief, Powell was not suggesting that Biden is not the President-elect, but rather that the election was rigged and the results were manipulated. Powell claims that the powers in charge used computer algorithms to flip the election in Biden’s favor, in addition to other forms of voter fraud. Trump’s comments were a reference to the fact that neither Trump nor Biden had any control over the election results due to the fraud.
The accusations have been met with skepticism from both the public and the media but Powell has stood firmly behind her allegations. She has also encouraged citizens to continue to voice their concerns and ask questions about the election results. During a Fox News interview, Powell made clear that her intention is to bring awareness and justice to the victims of election fraud.
In the wake of Trump’s statement, the Biden transition team has responded by reassuring the public that the election results are legitimate. Despite the assurances, Powell is not backing down from her claims. Regardless of where one stands on the issue, it’s clear that this situation is far from resolved and the outcome is uncertain.
