President-elect Joe Biden called President Trump’s refusal to concede the election an “embarrassment” on Tuesday and warned that failing to do so would reflect poorly on his legacy in office.
“I just think it’s an embarrassment, quite frankly,” Biden said, when asked to comment on Trump’s refusal to acknowledge defeat in last week’s presidential election.
“The only thing that — how can I say this tactfully — I think it will not help the president’s legacy,” Biden, seemingly choosing his words carefully, added.
Asked if he had a message for Donald Trump, Mr Biden said: “Mr President, I look forward to speaking with you.”
Reporter: “How do you expect to work with Republicans if they won’t even acknowledge you as president-elect?”
Biden, smiling: “They will.”
BIDEN: “We are already beginning the transition. We’re well underway…Nothing’s gonna stop that.”
“I’m confident that the fact they’re not willing to acknowledge we won at this point is not of much consequence in our planning and what we’re able to do.”

Its ok MR think he is President Elect, The President HAS a great legacy.
the 46th president says “UH” 46 times
Biden is just trying to intimidate Trump, and is trying to prevent the truth from coming out to save himself from shame. Most people are very happy that Trump is still fighting – for truth and justice…Bidens is the one who’s legacy will be shamed, regardless of what happens with President Trump. There is plenty of evidence of voter fraud, and the world is already a witness to their lies and evil behavior. Trump will continue to fight and Biden and the extreme leftists will continue to embarrass themselves to the world.
biden starting ? LOL . The guy doesn’t even know what’s today, poor Joe.
he’s running for the senate, no , for governor oh ?
I voted for Trump and am certainly no fan of the Democrats, but what a breathe of fresh air. Can you imagine Trump responding in such a level-headed manner? Hoping for a Republican Senate to keep things deadlocked, but am already appreciating not having to hear Trump’s immaturity.
Gore was better behaved than this senile old dotard
At least gore and bush waited until everything was settled
Just watch, if Trump wins expect the dumbocrats to say it was stolen (just btw you can’t steal from a robber it isn’t considered his)
Quite frankly it is an infinitely bigger embarrassment for Biden to have stolen an election, and a way bigger stain on Biden’s legacy, for having stolen an election from a duly reelected president.
Talking about embarrassment ?
Lol
Wait a few days and see who’ll hide from embarrassment when the truth about the elections are revealed !
Since there is no election result that requires a transition, there doesn’t appear to be any reason for Mr. Trump to do so.
Hillary: “Do not concede under any circumstances”.
Hmmmmm
What’s embarrassing is the fact that Democrat party, the media, and big tech openly colluded to scam half the country out of an election and destroy faith in our democracy.
Trump has NO legacy, and his presidential library will contain ONE book – Jack and Jill among his 1M tweets about nothing.
Burisma Biden is a senile liar:
Joe Biden in September: I will Not Declare Victory Until the Election Is Independently Certified
During the first presidential debate between President Donald Trump and Joe Biden, Chris Wallace of Fox News asked Biden if he would “pledge not to declare victory until the election is independently certified,” to which the former vice president answered, “yes.”
It is obvious Democrats have a licence to lie, as long as their lies justify the ends.
YES, BIDEN IS AN EMBARASSMENT!
How this senile fraud call himself “president elect” when today Trump is leading in Electoral Collage from official States cont totals?
Trump: 234
Biden: 212

The better term for Burisma Joe would be “El Presedente Elect”
why was al gore allowed to wait to concede until all court cases were completed. trump has as much right to wait as he did. no embarassment there
MoisheInGolus must live in a river in northeastern Africa. Everybody can figure out which one.
And, MIG, please answer my question: Are you being paid for your posts?
Biden needs to be thrown into an insane asylum. He’s a serious piece of work.
There is a major brainwashing attempt by Media to coronation for this Biden guy, even though not a single state has certified him a winner yet. It’s the process. Don’t be fooled by fools jumping the gun. Every legal challenge is appropriate, and exactly what Gore did.
huju, demented hateful morons do not deserve any answers from me.
To the YWN editors: Please don’t post comments from MoisheInDaNile if he calls me demented or hateful.
total embarresment for USA
The less you post about SLEEPY JOE the better
