My sister, the youngest of 4 of us was spoilt, what ever she wanted she was given, even different dinner if she didn’t like what the rest of were having, I just accepted it because she was the youngest and mum and dad knew they weren’t having more children. However it was when she was living alone and having to do things herself that she realised she was spoilt and grew up fast and never ever had a tantrum.

If he has to be dragged out of the White House kicking and screaming 'I don't wanna go' as he was out of the classroom (lol), I want it filmed so we can all have a good belly-laugh to cheer us up in that horrible period after Christmas and New Year. :-D

In my naivety I can’t believe a “man” can be so stupid, even a child having a tantrum concedes and calms down in a very short time.

I wonder if we will we see the National Guard playing "Hunt the Donald" in the White House on 21st January as Trump is holed up there still claiming the election was rigged?

Far from "Make America Great Again" it has descended into a Banana Republic status.

Trump's follow-up tweet:
"He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA. I concede NOTHING! We have a long way to go. This was a RIGGED ELECTION!"

The problem is that Trump is not admitting that Biden has won ............. he corrected that Twitter later by saying he was NOT conceding.

But he is also refusing point-blank to allow money to be released to Biden to let him set up his transition team and offices and prepare to begin work as President as soon as he is inaugurated.

Trump is refusing to allow Biden to receive "state secrets", ie Presidential updates on everything, from covid numbers to international relations..

Trump has not invited Biden and his wife to visit the White House, and to b given a tour.

All of those are not only precedents established over the time since the first President of the US, but also required for a smooth transition from outgoing President to incoming President.

Obama invited Trump t the White House about 2 days after Trump was declared elected.

George W Bush has told Trump that it is wrong.

So, yes there's lots wrong here.

There's only an absence of any kind of courtesy (aka good manners), but also a flouting of the rules governing the transition.

Trump is not rich. He owes millions especially in tax. However he may be able to pardon himself before he leaves.

It makes me wonder if it was rigged in 2016 so Trump would win.

Wouldn’t it be good if there was a recount and it put Biden in further in front :-D

Apparently, he has, sort of, conceded: In a tweet posted on Sunday afternoon, the president wrote: “He won because the Election was Rigged.”

Does it matter that he won’t concede that Biden has won and will be president?
Will it change anything, I think not.
