Last I saw, he didn’t.
He never will, and it doesn’t matter. He lost.
While that is apparently the case, it also doesn’t matter that the transition cooperation didn’t start the week of the election. Biden’s demagoguery about thousands of people dying if transition didn’t start was just that

Calling Biden a demagogue is rich.

If the vaccine rollout is borked because the Trump vaccine team didn’t cooperate with the Biden team, I can see some truth to it.

Did I say he was a demagogue? Please go back and reread. I said his demagoguery about thousands dying.

  1. The vaccine rollout will have already started by Inauguration Day.
  2. if it hasn’t started by then, these three weeks will have had zero impact on Biden’s ability to roll it out, since he will have had nearly two months to prepare. If he can’t roll it out with two months of preparation and planning, maybe he should concede.
So, yes, the comment was demagoguery.

I don’t think it was appealing to people’s prejudices. Maybe a little use of rhetoric.

And, if the Trump planning either stalled or went in a different direction than what Biden wanted and needed rework, I can see some delay.

Okay. Blatant scare tactics that had no basis in fact. Let’s call it a lie then.

Thst would be his choice unrelated to these three weeks. Again, he has two months!
He becomes president on January 20th, not November 24th.

Let’s call it a rhetorical flourish aimed at getting action.
You know, Trump was roundly criticized for telling a reporter that he publicly downplayed the virus to protect the public from panic and fear.
Here, you claim that using dishonesty intended to scare the public is mere “rhetorical flourish”.

Jon, let it go. We disagree. If you feel you have to win on such a minor point, go ahead.
 
I don’t think Biden said anything dishonest or wrong; public health officials have made it clear that delaying the transition process during the pandemic is dangerous and wrong. If you think that’s an exaggeration, take it up with them.

It think Biden should be held to the same critical standard the the dishonest DNC media has held Trump to.
This is just one example.

Yes, an actual concession speech is not part of Trump’s character.

The transition was not delayed. It doesn’t have to start until states certify by the earliest.
Biden was using dishonest scare tactics to undermine the president’s right to challenge in court. There is zero evidence that starting today with the transition as opposed to a week or two ago will have any impact on anything, including operation warp speed’s completion and distribution of vaccines. These efforts are already in place, ready to go.
 
Well it’s all moot now, but as I said, public health officials disagree with you.

Have they provided evidence that people will now die specifically because the transition didn’t start in advance of the states ferrying the election?

‘That is obvious’ Fauci said on CNN. ‘Of course it would be better if we could start working with Joe Biden’s team.’

So, it’s your opinion versus Dr. Fauci’s.

Most of Fauci’s opinions are versus Fauci’s.
But that said, that did not provide specific evidence that people will die because of these past 3 weeks. That’s what Biden said.
There is no such evidence.
