PoliticsUS intelligence director pick refuses to acknowledge Trump’s 2020 loss

Jay Clayton repeatedly avoided giving a direct answer during his confirmation hearing. He would not clearly say that Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential race. The response came as Clayton faced consideration for the US intelligence director post. His circuitous answers drew attention to whether he accepts the outcome of that election. The hearing therefore focused on his refusal to acknowledge Trump’s defeat rather than on an explicit claim that the result was overturned.
