An attorney representing a key figure in Donald Trump’s attempted coup has repeatedly refused to acknowledge that the former president lost the 2020 election. During an interview on MSNBC with Charles Burnham, who is representing John Eastman, a lawyer named as one of the uncharged co-conspirators in the recent federal indictment of Trump, Burnham evaded the question when asked if he accepted that Trump lost the election. When pressed further, Burnham stated that there are still discussions and issues surrounding the 2020 election. However, MSNBC host Ari Melber pointed out that a large portion of the country believing in ghosts or horoscopes does not change the fact that Trump lost the election. Burnham continued to avoid answering, stating that his personal opinions do not matter as he was there solely as an attorney representing his client. The indictment identifies Eastman as the second unnamed co-conspirator who attempted to obstruct the certification of the election results. Burnham expressed hope that his client would not be indicted, claiming that Eastman committed no crimes. Trump is facing charges related to his efforts to overturn the election result in his favor.
