Eric Trump Vows to Primary Any GOP Congressional Rep. Who Doesn’t Object to Electoral College Certification

Ahead of today’s meeting of Congress to certify the electoral college votes, there is a growing contingent of GOP senators and representatives in the House who intend to object to the certification.

Today in a tweet, President Trump’s son, Eric Trump, vowed to primary any congressional representative who doesn’t object to the certification process.

“I will personally work to defeat every single Republican Senator / Congressman who doesn’t stand up against this fraud – they will be primaried in their next election and they will lose,” Eric said.

Twitter tagged his tweet with the label that “This claim about election fraud is disputed.”
