Former Republican Senator Bob Dole said that President Joe Biden won the 2020 election fairly and there is no proof of election fraud.
"SNIP.....
In 2016, Dole endorsed Donald Trump for president, breaking away from the Republican establishment with its majority supporting Jeb Bush. Once Trump secured the party nomination, Dole was the only former presidential nominee to attend the GOP convention that formally nominated Trump.
In his intervew with USA Today, Dole said, "I'm a Trumper," before adding later that he's "sort of Trumped out, though."
He also said Trump lost the presidential election in 2020, saying that while it was a close race, Biden won fairly.
"He [Trump] lost the election, and I regret that he did, but they did," Dole said. "He had Rudy Giuliani running all over the country, claiming fraud. He never had one bit of fraud in all those lawsuits he filed and statements he made."
......SNIP"
