2020 ELECTION/NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL/TRUMP PEOPLE: “President Donald Trump’s National Security Council is preparing for ‘a very professional transition,’ because it looks like Joe Biden has won the election, national security adviser Robert O’Brien said in comments that aired Monday [Nov. 16, 2020]. 

His remarks stood in stark contrast to those of the president, who tweeted falsely just before midnight Sunday, ‘I WON THE ELECTION,’ as he continued to make baseless claims of widespread fraud…

The president’s top security official, known as a Trump loyalist, offered a different view.

‘Look, if the Biden-Harris ticket is determined to be the winner — and obviously things look that way now — we’ll have a very professional transition from the National Security Council,’ O’Brien said.”
