Speaking in “State of the Union” talkshow on CNN as reported by New York Post, the Democratic senator from Minnesota revised his statement. He clarified that only a few Republican senators worried that President Trump is not right mentally.
"It's not the majority of them, it's a few," Franken said to Todd clarifying what he said to Bill Maher before. Previously, Franken said in the HBO political talk show “Real Time with Bill Maher” claiming Republican senators have concern about the mental health of President Trump.
He said as reported by Business Insider, that the GOP’s senator have concern about Trump’s statement about millions of illegal voters. President Trump had claimed in a meeting with the U.S. Senate last week that thousands of people were sent to some states by bus to vote illegally against him.
The presence of illegal voters have caused him to lose in state like California and New Hampshire. However, President Trump did not submit any corroborating evidence to support his claim.
