“Should President Trump give in to Biden? Survey results: No: 190,593 (98.9%), Yes: 2,181 (1.1%) Total votes: 192,774. @gregkellyusa @newsnewsmax. For the good of our country we must win! “Trump tweeted.
Trump, a Republican who defeated Hillary Clinton in the 2016 White House race, has yet to concede defeat to Biden despite the fact that nearly every media outlet rated the Nov.3 election in favor of the former vice president. The Trump campaign, which has alleged “massive electoral fraud,” has filed multiple lawsuits demanding that the counting of votes be stopped, although most of the lawsuits have been dismissed.
Until recently, Trump had even refused to help Biden with the formal transition. However, Biden will now receive the nation’s most classified intelligence information after the White House signed on Tuesday to provide him with the Presidential Daily Report as an indication of the transition going forward. Biden has also started announcing his team, with Antony Blinken, among others, announced as secretary of state, while former Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen is the frontrunner to be announced as the new secretary of the Treasury.
