Trump Is Sending 'Incredibly Damaging Messages' About Democratic Functions - Biden

Incumbent Donald Trump has been accused by President-elect Joe Biden of sending "incredibly damaging messages" about the functions of democracy.

Biden said that he (Trump) has been sending “incredibly damaging messages being sent to the rest of the world about how democracy functions."

Biden went on to say that he is "confident" that Trump knows that he has lost the election and that he "is not going to be able to win".

He said, “It’s hard to fathom how this man thinks. “I’m confident he knows he hasn’t won, is not going to be able to win and we’re going to be sworn in January 20th.”

Trump is yet to concede to the winner of the November 3 election.

Biden swept the Electoral College with 306 votes, while Trump trailed with 232, losing five states that Trump took in 2016.

Trump's campaign team has threatened legal actions against the Biden team, claiming voter fraud, a claim that remains unfounded.
