President Donald Trump is suggesting President-elect Joe Biden needs to prove the 80 million votes he garnered in the election were not “illegally obtained.”
“Biden can only enter the White House as President if he can prove that his ridiculous ‘80,000,000 votes’ were not fraudulently or illegally obtained. When you see what happened in Detroit, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Milwaukee, massive voter fraud, he’s got a big unsolvable problem!” Trump wrote on Twitter Friday.
Trump seems to be shifting his tone from his original statement on Thanksgiving, as IJR previously reported.
A reporter asked Trump if he would leave the White House if he lost the Electoral College.
He answered, “Certainly I will. Certainly I will. And you know that.”
President-elect Joe Biden’s campaign issued a statement in response to Trump’s comments.
“President-elect Biden won 306 electoral votes. States continue to certify those results, the Electoral College will soon meet to ratify that outcome. Biden will be sworn in as President on Jan. 20, 2021,” the spokesperson said.
Trump has continued to refuse to concede on the basis of false claims of widespread voter fraud.
The General Services Administration announced Monday Biden could officially begin his transition, as IJR previously reported.
Despite the agency’s approval of Biden’s transition, Trump made it clear on Twitter he still will not concede.
“What does GSA being allowed to preliminarily work with the Dems have to do with continuing to pursue our various cases on what will go down as the most corrupt election in American political history?” Trump wrote.
He added, “We are moving full speed ahead. Will never concede to fake ballots ‘Dominion.'”
During an interview with NBC News that aired Tuesday, Biden said the outreach from the Trump administration “has been sincere — it has not been begrudging so far, and I don’t expect it to be.”
