The election is not over yet. President Trump has not conceded, and his campaign plans to pursue its case in court in at least four states. But unless Trump is sitting on a pile of evidence that confirms tens of thousands of ballots across the country were illegitimate, it looks like Democratic candidate Joe Biden will be our next president.

That’s a difficult outcome to accept, given how close the race was in several states. But it is one Republicans must accept anyways — even if Trump does not. And right now, it seems like the president has no intention of accepting the results graciously. He has already declared that the election was stolen, though he has not provided evidence to back this claim, and he continues to insist he won in several states where Biden leads by more than 10,000 votes.
