2020 ELECTION/BIDEN TRANSITION: “President-elect Joe Biden called President Donald Trump’s refusal to concede an ’embarrassment’ on Tuesday during his first press conference since the election, but assured Americans that he is proceeding with the transition.
‘I just think it’s an embarrassment,’ the former vice president said. ‘I think it will not help the president’s legacy. I know from my discussions with foreign leaders thus far that they are hopeful that United States democratic institutions are viewed once again as strong and enduring. But I think at the end of the day, it’s all going to come to fruition on January 20, and between now and then, the hope and expectation is that the American people do understand that there has been a transition, even among the people who voted for the president.'”
