US President Donald Trump, has finally given President-elect Joe Biden the green light to begin his transition to the White House, the clearest sign that Trump now understands he lost the election.
Despite Trump’s claims of electoral fraud, his campaign’s
legal attempts to change the election have been roundly rejected by judges
across the country who note that there is no evidence for showing Democrats
rigged the Nov. 3 contest for Biden.
Until Monday evening, Trump had refuses to allow General
Services Administration (GSA) to confirm the Democrat as president-elect — a
formality that kept him from accessing federal distribution plans for a
potential COVID-19 vaccine, top-secret intelligence briefings and other
critical resources.
In a tweet on Monday November 23, Trump said he had told
Emily Murphy, his handpicked administrator of the General Services
Administration, to sign the appropriate papers allowing Biden’s transition team
access to the federal resources he has been withholding while waging a baseless
court battle to subvert the results of the election.
Though Trump didn’t outrightly concede, he cryptically
insisted that his case for overturning Biden’s victory “STRONGLY continues.”
“We will keep up the good fight, and I believe we will
prevail!” tweeted Trump, who has barely been seen in public since losing the
election.
“Nevertheless, in the
best interest of our Country, I am recommending that Emily and her team do what
needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do
the same.” he added
I want to thank Emily Murphy at GSA for her steadfast
dedication and loyalty to our Country. She has been harassed, threatened, and
abused – and I do not want to see this happen to her, her family, or employees
of GSA. Our case STRONGLY continues, we will keep up the good...
