Ron Klein, whom Democrat Joe Biden intends to appoint as the White House chief of staff, commented on statements by US President Donald Trump that the presidential election was rigged.
In a comment to NBC, he noted that Trump confirms Biden’s victory with his remarks. Klein recalled that the decision of who will work in the White House is made by the American people.
“Donald Trump’s Twitter does not make Joe Biden president or vice versa. The American people did it, ”Klein said.
On Friday, November 13, the United States finished counting the votes in all states. The winner of the presidential election was the Democratic candidate Joe Biden: he received 306 electoral votes against the 270 required. His Republican rival Donald Trump received 232 votes.
On November 7, the US media announced Joe Biden’s victory in the US presidential election when he won 270 electoral votes thanks to his victory in Pennsylvania.
After that, Biden got votes in Nevada. (6 votes) and Arizona (11 votes) and Trump is in Alaska (3 votes). Results in these states could no longer change the overall results of the US presidential election.
We recall that on November 3, general elections were held in the United States. The Americans elected a president and a vice president, 35 senators, a House of Representatives, 13 governors and representatives of the local government.
Biden will take office as the 46th president of the United States on January 20, 2021. The presidential transfer center is already asking Trump to initiate this process.
The current president of the United States does not agree with the electoral results and describes them as rigged. Trump’s personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, said of “massive trials across the country.” Republicans have filed lawsuits in Michigan, Arizona and Pennsylvania, where, according to Trump, tens of thousands of votes were falsified. Later, the Michigan and Pennsylvania courts dismissed the charges; in Arizona, Trump’s campaign attorneys dropped the lawsuit.
The president of the United States called for the recount in Georgia, which is taking place due to the small gap between the candidates, to be stopped, qualifying «a waste of time. “
On November 15, Trump tweeted that Biden won the election thanks to manipulation, but then pointed out that he was not going to admit defeat.
