Donald Trump tweeted it……
Tried to deny it…
But THAT isn’t making it go away….
Now?
We have the reality of the election two weeks ago sinking in and coming out in public from other Republican’s who have little choice but to move ahead with the change in government process…..
Top Republicans are starting to acknowledge publicly that Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States, turning the page on the Trump era.
Congressional Republicans and even a high-ranking White House official have, in recent days, referred to the upcoming change in administration.
National security adviser Robert O’Brien promised a “professional transition” of power, saying it looks like Biden has won the election.
“If the Biden-Harris ticket is determined to be the winner — and obviously things look that way now — we’ll have a very professional transition from the National Security Council,” he said in comments that aired Monday.
Sen. James Risch (R-Idaho), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, acknowledged Biden’s victory in an interview with The Spokesman-Review, based in Spokane, Wash.
“This is my second transition where we move from one political party to another in the White House,” he said Friday, describing the incoming administration as having “an entirely different feeling or dynamic.”
“It is a change in the music that is playing in the background. We go from heavy metal to classical music in one fell swoop,” he added.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) on Monday afternoon referred to Biden as the president-elect.
“That will be the president-elect’s decision, obviously,” Rubio said when asked about Biden appointing Sen. Angus King (I-Maine), a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, to serve as the next director of national intelligence…
…
“I haven’t seen anything that would change the outcome,” he said when asked whether he believes Biden will be the next president, while noting “there are some specific cases where there are some problems that have been revealed.”
Cornyn later told reporters: “Come January the 20th we’re going to inaugurate a president and I think it’ll probably be Joe Biden.”
…
One Republican senator predicted that more GOP colleagues would acknowledge Biden as president-elect this week.
“I’ve been surprised at the wall that no one has crossed. It does seem to me that this is a week in which if you’re going to say something, this is the week to do it,” said a GOP lawmaker, who requested anonymity to discuss a politically sensitive topic.
…
Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), who’s also up for reelection in 2022, said, “I think this all works itself out.”…
Still cowards by and large.
Maybe…..
But they ARE finding ways to admit Joe Biden is gonna have the Presidency and they better adjust to that…
