Okay, let's do a thread of Republicans revealing that the claims of voter fraud was a hoax!
They lied to the American people about election fraud to raise money and political capital, now that they've back tracked it's time to reveal the scum for who they are.

Housekeeping note: I'm mostly sticking with known Trump supporters, and especially those who helped him lie about the election.
So while Mitt Romney and Ben Sasse did make very good statements condemning the lies, they aren't on the list. (Might tag them onto the end though)

Madison Cawthorn - 1/3
Okay, here he is in December ranting about voter fraud. Talk about an over produced video! https://twitter.com/CawthornforNC/status/1344740360862527494?s=20

Just two weeks later:
"Once you start floating the idea of election fraud, stealing elections"... "The party as a whole should have been much more wise about their choice of words"

Notice how Gym Jordan refuses to say there was fraud, instead rambles about nonsense about "the states didn't follow the law" (Which has nothing to do with who won the election btw).

She voted to overturn millions of votes, and then had the audacity to say this:
"I've never said anything about widespread fraud"

"[Biden] won. He is a legitimate president of the United States"..." Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are lawfully elected."
Graham knew the election was legitimate, so why did he want votes thrown out for Trump?

Kelly Loeffler
"I cannot now in good conscience object to the certification of these electors"
The soul-crushed tone here is quite amazing: if she thought there was voter fraud, she wouldn't have backed down.
