| 0:00.0 | Well, you know what is not the same picture is what happened yesterday at Congress. |
| 0:03.7 | They officially certified Trump's win. |
| 0:06.5 | Vice President Kamala Harris, she obviously defeated Trump, presided over the certification ceremony as president of the Senate and ate a big piece of humble pie in doing so. |
| 0:18.2 | Well, it's one of the great comebacks in certainly American political history. |
| 0:22.9 | I mean, it definitely probably surpasses what Richard Nixon did after losing the election in |
| 0:28.7 | 1960. Nixon, of course, losing a governor's race in California in between before coming back in |
| 0:34.3 | 68. But that's the story of Donald Trump. |
