In his speech on the eve of Thanksgiving, Biden said that Americans had “free and fair elections, and that is why we respect the results.”
“The people and the laws of this country will not support anything else,” he said in Wilmington, Delaware, where he lives.
This Democratic statement testifies to his toughest stance on Trump, who has been spreading conspiracy theories for more than three weeks without providing any concrete evidence that Biden stole his victory in the November 3 election.
Trump, who pardoned his former national security adviser Michael Flynn on Wednesday, convicted of lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) about his contacts with Russia, remains steadfast.
“We need to change this election,” he said, addressing Republican supporters in Pennsylvania by phone.
“These elections were rigged,” Trump said, reiterating several of his accusations of falsifying results, which have already been rejected by the courts.
“All we need is a judge who listens well,” he stressed.
Previously, Trump was scheduled to appear in person at that Republican rally near the Battle of Gettysburg in the American Civil War. However, at the last minute, his arrival was canceled.
Among the meeting participants was Rudy Giuliani, the outgoing president’s personal attorney. Trump mistakenly described the meeting as “a very important meeting of the Pennsylvania State Senate.”
In fact, the meeting took place in a small-town hotel and was another opportunity for the most enthusiastic Trump supporters to reiterate their allegations of alleged fraud, of which no evidence has been provided so far.
On November 3, Biden won 80,000 in Pennsylvania. majority of votes. Four years ago in the state, D. Trump defeated Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
In sight – 2024?
Trump, who has broken many rules set during the four years of his presidency, is preparing the ground for his future plans by refusing to acknowledge Biden’s victory. His supporters say the Republican is preparing to announce that he will run again for president in 2024.
This could explain the real estate mogul’s persistent efforts to fight for an already lost cause.
Efforts by Giuliani and other Trump attorneys to challenge the results in court were unsuccessful.
While Trump claims, among other conspiracy theories he propagates, that counting machines erased millions of votes cast for him, the government’s election security agency said the Nov.3 election was the safest in U.S. history. .
Feeling mounting pressure from influential Republicans to end the political deadlock, Trump finally agreed on Monday to open the way for the president-elect to access funds and other resources, including access to intelligence.
However, Mr. Trump has not taken any steps so far in accordance with established post-election practice. One of the first steps was to call Biden.
“No, I didn’t get any news from President Trump,” Biden told NBC News.
According to the Democrat, Trump threatened not to recognize his results even before the election, so he is not surprised by the president’s reaction.
After the election, Trump almost deviated from his usual schedule and never answered questions from journalists. Still, on Wednesday he exercised his political muscles, giving grace to M. Flynn. It is predicted that in the near future there will be more acts of grace for his friends and comrades, who are involved in various scandals.
“I am honored to announce that General Michael T. Flynn has received full grace,” Trump wrote on Twitter, wishing the former counselor a “truly fantastic Thanksgiving.”
In 2017, Flynn confessed to providing the FBI with false information about his conversations with the Russian ambassador.
