Obama Says It's 'Disappointing' That Republicans Aren't Challenging Trump Over Election Fraud Claims

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Former President Barack Obama said it is "disappointing" that so many Republicans have not pushed back against or challenged President Donald Trump's unfounded claims of widespread election fraud.

President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris were declared the winners in the presidential contest on November 7, after the Associated Press, Fox News and other television networks called Nevada and Pennsylvania for the Democratic ticket. However, Trump has refused to concede, pushing baseless allegations of widespread voter fraud without providing evidence.

During an interview with Obama on CBS News that aired Sunday morning, anchor Gayle King pointed out that most Republicans have not challenged or overtly supported Trump's false claims.

"And that has been disappointing," Obama responded. "But it's been sort of par for the course during these four years. They obviously didn't think there was any fraud going on, 'cause they didn't say anything for the first two days. But there's damage to this, because what happens is that the peaceful transfer of power, the notion that any of us who attain an elected office—whether it's dogcatcher or president – are servants of the people. It's a temporary job."

4. Exactly

'Disappointment' implies that we had reason to expect better.

3. I've said it before, about a million times,

but I have to say it again: That anyone could compare these two and find Trump superior in any way whatsoever pretty much defines all the problems of the world.
