Trump campaign is 0-12 so far, after withdrawing their own complaint in Nevada.

Rudy Giuliani unveiled a 'witness' to his claims - a Republican poll watcher - on Saturday but the man, Daryl Brooks, has not been included in any legal papers. He was previously convicted of exposing himself to underage girls.

I don't understand the outrage in this whole story

Joe Biden won.

Donald Trump is entitled to pursue legal actions.

Why force him to concede? What is the media complaining about? If Joe Biden won fair and square, then no one should be scared of Trump.

well one good reason is that he's 0-12 on court cases and they're being thrown out of courts at breakneak pace.

but i agree, him not conceding isnt a big deal. it was a close race, let the courts settle it, and if they do settle it and find no EC vote swaying levels of fraud and he still doesnt concede then put up a fuss.

For reference Al Gore conceded on December 13th.

Trump shouting mass fraud occurring , declaring himself the winner on the day of the election , trying to get votes not counted , and overall demeanor and actions are just behavior of a autocratic moron not interested in anything other than the fun he's had with the cult he's been leading.

Gore just said he's not conceding until Florida is resolved and when the court ruled no recount, he conceded so it's not exactly a 1:1 comparison.

I think ultimately yes he's just gonna leave once court cases end or the electoral college convenes and pledges Biden to be the winner, but it just looks so absurd that Trump is doing all of this lol.

100% not 1:1, especially as Gore had some SERIOUSLY legit gripes and Roger Stone literally shut down the recount by staging an intimidation protest.

that and it came down to incorrectly punched ballots more or less, not mailed late, not unsigned, etc. people who punched it slightly too soft lol.

because he KNOWS his allegations are bogus, he knows that he stands no chance in court, and he only uses them to further undermine trust in democracy amongst his idiot followers. that's why it's a big deal.

As we learned from Hunter Biden, this is not disqualifying.
