President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he would support Georgia's Republican Senate candidates by personally traveling to the state ahead of the Jan. 5 runoff election. The announcement comes as he refuses to concede or acknowledge that he lost the presidential election to Democrat Joe Biden.

After his Thanksgiving video teleconference call with the country's service members came to an end, Trump said he would be going to Georgia and continued making his dubious claims about the state's election results' authenticity. He is scheduled to visit Georgia on Dec. 5, according to White House press secretary Judd Deere.

Noting that he might visit the state twice, Trump said he'd love holding the event in a stadium before admitting that he can't go due to coronavirus pandemic. There are runoff elections slated to take place in the state for its US Senate seats.

It is imperative that either of the incumbent Republicans, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler hold onto their seats to allow the party to retain its majority control in the chamber, CNN reported.

However, Democratic challengers Rev. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff both prevail. The Senate's control would go to the Democrats because of Vice President-elect Kamala Harris' tie-breaking vote. Trump took this opportunity to push his baseless claims of widespread voter fraud and called the recently concluded election rigged.

Before speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump interacted with US military leaders overseas. He then agreed to take questions for the first time since the Nov. 3 election and slammed officials in Pennsylvania and Georgia's key swing states.

Hindustan Times reported Trump called the officials' enemies of the state and accused them of being involved in the vote fraud. Besides state officials, international observers have repeatedly said there is no evidence to support his claims of mass fraud. His campaign has also failed miserably in court to offer any proof.

One of the reasons, according to the Associated Press, Republicans have backed Trump's baseless claims of fraud is to keep his loyal supporters excited ahead of the Jan. 5 runoffs. However, Trump raised questions regarding the impartiality of that election, which could significantly decrease the Republican turnout.

Claiming that Americans are upset that Republicans were robbed, Trump said they are dealing with an extremely deceitful system. He said he would never formally concede despite agreeing to leave the White House.
