Well Trump’s Attorney General just outed the con. Says no systemic voter fraud, no need to seize voting machines, seen no evidence that a special investigation around Hunter is needed.
Barr says no need for special counsels to investigate election or Hunter Biden
Washington (CNN) - Attorney General William Barr on Monday rejected several of President Donald Trump's inflammatory and unfounded statements regarding the presidential election, saying at a news conference that he doesn't plan to appoint a special counsel to investigate President-elect Joe Biden's son Hunter or the election.
"If I thought a special counsel at this stage was a right tool and was appropriate, I would name one, but I haven't and I'm not going to," Barr said in response to a question on the presidential election. He said that widespread fraud wasn't found in this election.
Barr also roundly rejected suggestions from the President's supporters in recent days who've called for the US government to seize voting machines.
"To the extent there's an investigation, I think it's being handled responsibly and professionally currently within the department, and to this point, I have not seen a reason to appoint a special counsel, and I have no plan to do so before I leave," Barr said when asked about Hunter Biden. Federal prosecutors and IRS investigations are conducting the probe, and Hunter Biden has not been charged with any crime.
