On Thursday, Donald Trump gave a press conference to continue peddling the idea that he didn’t lose the election. He did! But he will not concede and continues to repeat claims that the election was won by Joe Biden through voter fraud.

That is not true, and recount after recount has continued to confirm the Biden win. On December 14th, electors will be formerly voting to assign the electoral votes Biden won to him. During the conference, Trump suggested this would be wrong, saying, “If they do, they’ve made a mistake.”

Apparently, the president is trying to hang onto his office via any means, which was why it was hard for him to answer questions about whether or not he’d attend Biden’s inauguration.

“It’s going to be a very hard thing to concede, because we know there was massive fraud,” Trump said. “This was a massive fraud, this should never take place in this country. We’re like a third-world country.”
And about the inauguration, he responded, “I know the answer to that, but I don’t want to say it yet.”

He did say that he would leave the White House in January, answering that question with, “Certainly I will. … Certainly, I will, and you know that.”
But he added, “There will be a lot of things happening between now and January 20th, a lot of things.” It’s true, anything could happen. We may yet see dozens of more horrible constructed Trump lawsuits shot down across the country.
By the way, the last president who didn’t attend his predecessor’s inauguration was Andrew Johnson, a one-term impeached president who Trump has been compared to before.
