Tuberville says Biden should be ‘arrested’: Claims Democrats ‘stole’ 2020 election from Trump

In a recent interview with former Donald Trump White House strategist Steve Bannon, U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., agreed that there was “no doubt in his mind” that 2020 election was “stolen” from Trump, the current President-elect.

“They [Democrats] stole the election from President Trump, and they were able to get four years with a bed-ridden dementia patient at the end of the day,” he told Bannon.

He went on to say that President Joe Biden and other Democratic leadership should be “arrested for what they’re doing.”

Trump and his supporters have asserted over the last four years that Biden’s win in 2020 was a fraud, citing unsupported claims of election tampering and illegal voting.

On the morning of Jan. 6, 2021, moments after Trump, during a “Stop the Steal” rally told supporters that he had been cheated in a “rigged” election, rioters stormed the Capitol building. Five people died in the attack, including a Capitol police officer.

Democrats who controlled the U.S. House quickly impeached Trump for his role in the insurrection, making him the only president to be impeached twice. He was acquitted by the U.S. Senate, where many Republicans argued that he no longer posed a threat because he had left office.

In 2021, Tuberville, in speaking to the media during a stop in Mobile, said he believed Trump was not responsible for inciting a mob of his supporters to rush the Capitol building.

Tuberville told Bannon this week that the GOP has to be strategic and united in their leadership choices moving forward to avoid Democrats regaining control of the House in two years.

If they were to regain control, he believes that the party would pursue efforts to impeach Trump again.

“How do you know how to win if you don’t know what you’re fighting for?” he said.

“We’re fighting for our country, and we better wake up and smell the roses. Because if we don’t, we’re going to lose this country and it’s going to be gone.”

“And we’re not going to have a second chance of a Donald Trump, it’s not going to happen.”
