Its high time Republicans tell the truth and renounce President Donald Trump s ceaseless, pounding lies about the 2020 election being stolen from him, MSNBC s Chris Hayes argued on Thursday.

The All In host suggested that the only way the United States can move forward is if Trumps elite enablers in the GOP tell the truth and admit that President-elect Joe Biden won the vote fair and square.

Hayes noted how some Republicans, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), have now acknowledged Bidens victory. But Trump and many of his other allies as well as conservative media all continue to promote the lies, he said.

If people like [Ohio Rep.] Jim Jordan really want to help, they can go on Fox News and tell people there was no election fraud, that this was a free and fair vote and their side lost, that this is a democracy and we all have to accept the will of the people, Hayes said. Until Jim Jordan and [Texas Sen.] Ted Cruz and all the rest of them do that, the damage will endure.
