Lankford Defends Trump Comments On Transfer Of Power

By Chris CasteelStaff writer ccasteel@oklahoman.comU.S. Sen. James Lankford on Thursday defended President Donald Trump’s comments about the potential transfer of power next year, as the Senate unanimously approved a resolution asserting the Senate’s intent that the people’s will not be overturned. Lankford, an Oklahoma Republican, said it was the “height of hypocrisy” to push Trump to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if necessary in January since Democrats challenged the outcome of the 2000 presidential election all the way to the U.S.
