The crazy part is: I don’t even think this guy is Jewish.
But he’s sure making a name for himself.
Republican congressman Adam Kinzinger has said Donald Trump and his alliesâ attempts to overturn Novemberâs presidential election results are an âutter scamâ meant to âraise money and gain followers.â
Although President-elect Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election last month, Mr Trump has repeatedly falsely claimed there was widespread voter fraud and has still not conceded.
Mr Trump and his team have had more than 50 legal challenges dismissed over the last month, as he and his allies are still attempting to overturn last monthâs election results. There is no evidence for the claims.
On Saturday morning, Mr Trump reiterated his baseless claims and tweeted: âThe ‘Justice’ Department and the FBI have done nothing about the 2020 Presidential Election Voter Fraud, the biggest SCAM in our nation’s history, despite overwhelming evidence.
âThey should be ashamed. History will remember. Never give up. See everyone in DC on January 6th.â

Replying to the post, which was labelled by Twitter as a disputed claim, Mr Kinzinger, from Illinois, wrote: âMy God. Trying to burn the place down on the way out because you canât handle losing. No evidence, nothing but your temper tantrum and crazy conspiracies. Embarrassing. #RestoreOurGOP.â
In a later tweet, the Illinois representative added: âAll this talk about Jan 6th from @realDonaldTrump and other congressional grifters is simply explained: they will raise money and gain followers by blaming everyone else knowing full well they canât do anything. Itâs sad, and an utter scam. #restoreourgop.â

On 6 January Congress will meet to count the Electoral College votes to confirm Mr Biden as the next US president.
In his posts on Saturday, Mr Kinzinger appeared to be referencing reports from The New York Times earlier this month that said Mr Trump had raised around $170 million (£127m) since 3 November to help him overturn the election result. A majority of the funds were secured in the week after the election.
Since then, Mr Trump and his campaign team have repeatedly sent out emails asking for donations for an âElection Defence Fundâ.
Although the campaign has claimed the donations are for the âdefence fundâ, the fine print of the communication suggests much of the money donated to support that effort since election day has instead paid down campaign debt and replenished the Republican National Committee.
The money has also been spent helping Save America, a new political action committee Mr Trump founded following the election, get started. Money raised by the committee is able to be used for personal expenses.
No one cares about the money.
People care about the fact that this election was obviously a total scam. That’s what everyone cares about, that’s what everyone wants dealt with.
No one believes Joe Biden got 15 million more votes than Hillary Clinton.
