Donald Trump is a hot mess tonight. It didn’t help that he got an ass whoppin’ in court again over his attempt to overturn the election results after President-elect Joe Biden defeated the former reality show star. And frankly, this is getting embarrassing as he publicly squirms while refusing to concede a race he clearly lost. Trump’s score with the lawsuits so far is 34 to 2, and that’s not good for this president. The problem here is that Trump’s attorneys haven’t presented any evidence of widespread voter fraud, so the president is basically holding the United States hostage since he’s suffering from a narcissistic injury.
A handful of Republicans have objected to Trump’s tactics, and one of them coming front and center is none other than House Republican Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who on Saturday urged Trump to respect “the sanctity of our electoral process” if he cannot prove his voter fraud claims, according to Politico.
“America is governed by the rule of law,” she said in a statement. “The President and his lawyers have made claims of criminality and widespread fraud, which they allege could impact election results. If they have genuine evidence of this, they are obligated to present it immediately in court and to the American people.”
“If the President cannot prove these claims or demonstrate that they would change the election result, he should fulfill his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States by respecting the sanctity of our electoral process,” she added.

Apparently, Trump didn’t like that very much, so he took to his Twitter account to say he can’t accept the election results.
Sorry Liz, can’t accept the results of an election with hundreds of thousands of fraudulent votes cast, enough to easily flip the Election. You’re just unhappy that I’m bringing the troops back home where they belong! https://t.co/elZ9X3wrAz

Trump won’t allow a peaceful transition of power, nor will he concede to the President-elect. Instead, Trump will do as much damage as possible on his way out. That’s just who he is. Sorry, Donald, but you lost. Now, pack your shit and get the fuck out.
