WASHINGTON House Republicans on Friday gave a standing ovation to the top Democrat in the chamber, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), when he mentioned that Republican Donald Trump had won the presidential election in November.
But they all promptly sat down and went silent when Jeffries said why he appreciated their applause: because his party isnt the one thats home to election deniers.
Two months ago, the American people elected Donald Trump as the 47th president of the United States of America, Jeffries said, speaking at the dais in the House chamber.

Thank you for that very generous applause, Jeffries said with a smile. Its OK. There are no election deniers on our side of the aisle.
