US election: Trump says Biden won but again refuses to concede.

Donald Trump has insisted he is not conceding the US election, despite seemingly acknowledging for the first time that Democrat Joe Biden won.

"He won because the Election was Rigged," the Republican president wrote on Twitter, repeating unsubstantiated claims of election fraud.

About an hour later he said he was not conceding the 3 November vote.

He has launched a slew of lawsuits in key states, but has not provided any evidence to back his claims of fraud.

All the lawsuits have so far been unsuccessful.

On Friday, election officials said the vote was the "most secure in American history" and there was "no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes or was in any way compromised".

I repeat

Of course there have been voter fraud or the attempt to do so

BUT

This voter fraud or the attempt to do so have gone both way. Not in benefit for Biden, but for both.

Last but not less important...we are talking about ppm(Parts per million)
Maybe 1-3 votes per million

On this I'm convinced

Nothing is official until the electors cast their vote for president. In 2000 Al Gore contested the results all the way up to within a few days of the electors vote and it took the Supreme Court to tell big Al to pack sand. Trump is entitled to contest the vote count and procedure as well. Like Al Gore and others, Trump can talk all the smack he wants. But it ends on December 14th 2020 when the electors meet or sooner if the Supreme Court tell him to pack sand too

Like most conspiracy believers, Trump will continue to build even wilder more complicated claims to support his viewpoint while ignoring overwhelming evidence that belies that view. Maybe he'll go so far he'll fall off the edge of the Earth.

That said, I don't have much faith in Biden doing great things but I'm happy the clown act has been voted out and we can move on to the jugglers.

I rejects any conspiracy theories surrounding the US election..
My last comment was made from memory.
Some Danish/Swedish expert said after a Presidential election.

There will always be people who will try to commit voter fraud.

I don't see Biden taking over the WH, but then again I didn't see my ex-wife divorcing me for a millionaire either

Well I guess you guys are on a roll. You now have two Presidents that a large part of the population thinks are illegitimate. New normal I guess.

Quite true.

For me as a non-American and neutral this election is over..Biden won.

The next "Funny" happening are the change of person in the White House.

Will Trump leave it in normal order or have the authorities have to drag him out from there, while screaming and kicking.

It's going to be very interesting

Picture this image the next two super aircraft carriers side by side named:

USS Trump and USS Biden

I wonder if they would try to sink each other

Markus ask yourself whose rally it was. BLM showed up at a Trump rally in order to cause trouble, not the other way around.

The idea of counter-protesting seems to elude you, August.

BTW, here's another video from Washington; Trump supporters ganging up and beating someone:

I didn't realize that kicking people in the head while they lay unconscious in the street was considered to be just "counter protesting" in your country. It's considered "Felony Assault" even "Attempted Murder" over here.

Meet the new and improved ugly Americans, better and uglier than ever.
