Mediaite reports:

Former President Donald Trump should have conceded the 2020 election, former White House Counsel Pat Cipollone told the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack at the U.S. Capitol.

Cipollone, who served as Trump’s White House counsel in the last years of his administration, gave testimony to the committee on Friday. The footage was shown during Tuesday’s committee hearing.

When asked if Trump should’ve conceded the election, Cipollone said, “If your question is did I believe he should concede the election at a point in time, yes, I did.” Mark Meadows “shared this view.”
