As before, Donald Trump does not admit his election defeat against Joe Biden.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo even goes a step further.
Washington DC / Munich -
Donald Trump * is
shaking heads around the world with his refusal to
admit
his
election defeat against Joe Biden *
.
Really all over the world?
Well, in his camp there could still be several people who, like the
President
of a
stay in the White House
go beyond the January 20, 2021 addition.
Or did
Mike Pompeo
just want to provoke his testimony to journalists?
The
foreign minister
said when asked whether his Ministry a
handover to the team of Biden
preparatory, quite openly: "It is a smooth transition to a
second Trump government
give." In addition, Pompeo recommended that the
Constitution
be seen specified further process.
However, the world could have “full confidence” that the ministry would be
fully operational
immediately after the
new president was sworn in
on January 20.
NEW VIDEO: @SecPompeo: "There will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration."
I don't care if he was joking.
This delegitimizing shit ENDS NOW.
A solution: we stop the welfare to the financially failing Red States.

Trump team to transfer power: Pompeo trusts the electoral system and drives journalists
There
is no trace of
recognition of the
election result
, according to which the democratic challenger has more than
the required 270 voters *
in all states before all votes
have been counted.
But it got even crazier.
Pompeo
reacted
thinly
to the question of whether Trump's refusal to admit defeat was not
discrediting
calls by the State Department to other countries for
fair and free elections
.
This is "ridiculous" because: "The United States has an
electoral system
that is deeply anchored in our constitution." His team will follow this system.
Trump is known to accuse the Democrats of
fraud,
just
as he did four years ago
, but has not yet presented
any evidence
.
The
election observers of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe had
found
no irregularities
in the US election
.
The head of the OSCE mission, Michael Georg Link, had described Trump's manipulation allegations as "unfounded".

Apparently Donald Trump is still going to win the election: US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo surprises with a questionable statement.

Trump transfer of power team: results in multiple states contested
The incumbent seemed
to have
a
good chance of victory
on election evening
.
However, after counting the mostly democratic postal voters, it fell behind in several countries and has
already clearly lost
the
popular vote
.
In the states counted only after several days, Trump wants to challenge the result.
As before, the Republican does not guarantee a
peaceful transfer of power
.
