US election: Trump refuses to initiate transition process

A maskless President Donald Trump and a masked President-elect Joe Biden took part in separate Veterans Day observances. Both declined to speak publicly in the wake of a highly contested presidential election.
US President Donald Trump's refusal to concede the US election will reflect poorly on his place in history, President-elect Joe Biden said on Tuesday.

"I just think it's an embarrassment, quite frankly," Biden told reporters when he was asked about Trump's refusal to acknowledge defeat in the November 3 election.

"How can I say this tactfully," Biden said. "I think it will not help the president's legacy." The president-elect downplayed any practical problems caused by Trump's refusal to help with the transition toward a new US administration. He said the transition process was "well underway" and "nothing's going to stop that."

Much formal transition work doesn't begin until the administrator of the federal General Services Administration ascertains the "apparent successful candidate" in the general election. This has not happened yet amidst legal challenges by President Donald Trump's team to the election results in some states. This means Biden is not receiving a daily classified briefing on security threats typically afforded to the president-elect.

Why would one subject one's self, and the nation, to a self proclaimed coup?

The good news is, all the large cities (of yes, the entire earth, a blue voting population, I might add) will conveniently starting having MASSIVE "ACTS OF GOD" that justifiable wipes out large portions of the evil that plagues this world. When these events come true, please feel free to ring me...I won't even laugh, I will try to get you to understand the reason you are foolishly ignoring. Repent, turn back to God and the 10 commandments, not the 9 that the Church of Rome would have you believe. The 7th Day (Saturday, or Sabbado in many cultures, funny that) is the Sabbath, and the Church of Rome flaunts that they've tricked you by making you worship on their day, Sunday. Good luck with that, but watch as cities (blue voters) crumble and burn.
