Trump's National Security Adviser: It 'Obviously' Looks As If Biden Won... CONGRATS BIDEN

  National security adviser Robert O’Brien said on Monday morning Nov 16th 2020 that it “obviously” looks as if  former Vice President Joe Biden has won the presidential election  and promised “a very professional transition” with the incoming team at the National Security Council. O’Brien’s remarks are the first on-the-record acknowledgment by a senior White House official that Biden and his running mate, Kamala Harris, appear to have won the election, a victory that foreign governments have already recognized but that President Trump has spent more than a week disputing. Although  Trump appeared to acknowledge Biden’s victory  Sunday by tweeting, “He won,”  he quickly backtracked  with a tweet saying, “I concede NOTHING!” The president’s refusal to concede defeat in the election has  alarmed  observers in the  national security community  who are concerned that delaying the transition — or not having a proper transition at all — w...
