The way things are going, a third of Americans aren't going to accept that Joe Biden won. This is a crisis that threatens our democracy, our nation, and our peace. Trump would love to burn America to the ground and set Americans against Americans. We need senior leaders of both parties to speak out and nip this in the bud. They need to do it in a forceful and united way, calling out Trump for what he is and the damage he is doing.

It will make no difference though because you see, trump and the modern GOP are actual traitors, they really are as bad as I have said or anyone else has said this whole time.
There are a few decent ones but not nearly enough.

The other three are Democrats. They've all spoken out or made statements.

I'm not sure what such an event would accomplish. Everyone knows where everyone stands.
