GOP's Guadagno: It's time for Trump to move on

Since the results of the national election have become clear, my Republican colleagues have been disturbingly silent on insisting that an orderly transition occur. Perhaps, they fear backlash from the president or his base, something I experienced in 2016 when I had the audacity to criticize candidate Trump after the publication of the Billy Bush Access Hollywood interview. That base is a formidable voting block. But I am sure of one thing, they put country before politics.

Allowing President Trump to continue his campaign to undermine this election while denying President-elect Biden access to critical intelligence on the pandemic and national security, while Republicans sit on their hands, is not only cowardly and shameless but it poses a risk to the health and safety of our citizens. Biden’s claim that more people may die if Trump continues to refuse to cooperate on the transition is not election year hyperbole — it is a fact as our people are now dying at the rate of 1,000 per day.

The time has come for all of us to stand up and demand that Trump “make that call” and cooperate with the incoming Biden administration to allow a seamless transition of power as the framers of our constitution intended. The election is over. Time to move on.
