Despite the media noise….
His family and friends HAVE been trying to get him to accept that he’ll be out of the Presidency in less than. 75 days…
(Joe Biden is moving ahead with getting ready to govern)
He’s taking the glimpse of reality hard…
Yes…
He’s got BIG money problems to deal with beside’s being something he hates…
Losing….
And one could say it’s his own fault….
He has never taken the virus seriously….
And he has always been about HIMSELF….
Not the rest of us….
President Donald Trump has spent the hours since Joe Biden was declared his successor in an increasingly lonely environment: Resisting family members’ calls to concede, fending off criticism from every corner of Washington and watching surrogates who once marveled at his stubborn defiance go dark on the airwaves.
For the second time this weekend, the president left the White House in the morning for an outing at his Virginia golf club — a “safe space,” as one administration official described it — for him to weigh his next steps. In recent days, the defeated incumbent has been confronted with a torrent of conflicting advice over how he should spend the remaining months of his presidency. Some in his inner circle have encouraged him to battle the election results until the bitter end, while others privately insist he should simply concede to protect his legacy.
Within Trump’s own family, there appear to be divisions. Trump’s wife, Melania, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, have been urging the president to think seriously about an exit strategy, according to two people briefed on their discussions. But Trump’s sons Donald Jr. and Eric have continued pugnaciously tweeting away.
At Trump’s campaign, many aides are coming to grips with the reality of a loss. But at campaign headquarters on Sunday, staffers were met with walls covered in print-outs of Trump tweets and a doctored newspaper front page encouraging them to fight on — an idea that came from the highest ranks of the Trump campaign, according to a person familiar with the episode.
Others, like Vice President Mike Pence, have simply gone dark, raising eyebrows among Trump allies….

… Sen.
@ChrisCoons
reveals what some of his Republican colleagues have said to him in private — “please convey my well wishes to the President-Elect, but I can’t say that publicly yet.”
Those Republican Senators are fucking cowards
Yes they are and MAGA red hat wearing bootlickers.
Add Pompeo to that list. So much for CG and James theory of Republicans accepting defeat.
Yo Scott….
Scott was trying to make a joke….
He can’t say out loud that the State Dept. is gonna do what Trump doesn’t want….
Actually asking the question was dumb…
Biden does a presser….
CSPAN
President-elect Biden: “We are already beginning the transition. We’re well under way.”

We’re well out of automatic recount territory now (0.7 > 0.5), and Biden is still on track to win PA by more than double Trump’s 2016 PA margin (44,292 votes)..
…
Perdue has conceded in the North Carolina US Senate race….
Democrats did NOT do good in the Carolina’s
You have no perspective on this and are just thirsty for an argument.
I have always and only said that the Trump Admin would not have conceded the week after the election.
It is also true that people are saying things to humor Donald Trump because they fear the consequences in the short term if they do not.
The bottom line is that in his waning days, Trump is holding the Republican Party hostage one final (possibly time)
If these politicians do not tread lightly around him during his time of despair, he will openly sabotage any hope of keeping the Senate majority in Georgia.
Or he may give away numerous classified secrets to Putin or someone else.
To some, the Senate Majority issue would be worse.
“Trump is holding the Republican Party hostage one final (possibly time)”
LOL–keep telling yourself that!
Wrong state, James: David Perduc is running for re-election in Georgia.
In North Carolina, you were probably thinking of another GOP incumbent Senator, Thom Tillis.
Is he conceding to Cal Cunningham?
Cunningham lost- GOP hold
Was going to go the other way until it was revealed what a horny cad the Democrat had been.
And with it, potentially control of the Senate
Yea CG….
Cunningham could have survived in a blue state but the GOPers get over on his stupidity….
Only Trump can coast on sexual misdeeds in a red state….
Republicans writeit up to “youthful indiscretion”–be they the then 46 yr old Henry Hyde cheating on his wife or the near 60 yr old Trump in 2005 bragging about grabbing pussy.
Only Demifrats
Thanks DSD….
Yea……
North Carolina and Cunningham….
