Ex-GOP Pennsylvania Governor Condemns Trump's Gettysburg Meeting as Attempt 'to Undermine the

Republic'

Former Pennsylvania governor Tom Ridge has accused President Donald Trump of staging a "bogus event on the hallowed grounds of Gettysburg" to overturn the result of the election.

Ridge, who served as the first U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security during the George W. Bush administration, tweeted his disdain for a meeting held on Wednesday by Pennsylvania Republican lawmakers to discuss alleged election irregularities.

Trump continues to insist he won the election despite battleground states such as the Keystone State already certifying their results, in effect locking in a victory for President-elect Joe Biden.

On Tuesday, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf certified election results showing Biden won the state by more than 81,000 votes. The next day, a Pennsylvania judge ordered state officials to halt any further steps toward certifying election results which is being appealed by the Wolf administration.

The same Tom Ridge who used the power of his Department of Homeland Security to scare citizens for purely political gain?

Sorry, but I'm sick of these Republicans who have been greasing the skids for a Trump Presidency for decades acting all shocked now that we have one.
