Donald Trump allowed the official US progression to commence after The General Services Administration (GSA) declared Joe Biden the \u2018\u2018apparent winner.\u2019\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The formal victory of Biden in Michigan marked the announcement.<\/span><\/p>\n

GSA\u2019s statement on Monday enabled the already-delayed shift from Trump\u2019s administration to start.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a letter to Biden, the head of GSA, Emily Murphy, said the result is factually and lawfully based, and there was no coercion \u2018\u2018by any executive branch official including those who work at the White House.\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

As a response, Trump posted on Twitter: \u2018\u2018<\/span>We will keep up the good fight and I believe we will prevail! Nevertheless, in the best interest of our country, I am recommending that Emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do the same.<\/span>\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

I want to thank Emily Murphy at GSA for her steadfast dedication and loyalty to our Country. She has been harassed, threatened, and abused \u2013 and I do not want to see this happen to her, her family, or employees of GSA. Our case STRONGLY continues, we will keep up the good…<\/p>\n
