- President Donald Trump said that Joe Biden could only enter the White House if he proves his 80 million votes are not ‘fraudulently or illegally’ obtained
- It was a step back from Thursday’s admission he would residence for his rival
- Trump spent Friday morning shooting off angry tweets before he left to play golf
President Donald Trump said on Friday that Joe Biden can only enter the White House if he can prove his votes are not ‘fraudulent’ – a step back from Thursday’s admission he would the residence for his Democratic rival.
‘Biden can only enter the White House as President if he can prove that his ridiculous “80,000,000 votes” were not fraudulently or illegally obtained. When you see what happened in Detroit, Atlanta, Philadelphia & Milwaukee, massive voter fraud, he’s got a big unsolvable problem!,’ Trump tweeted.
Trump has refused to concede the election despite Biden’s lead in the popular vote and the electoral college.
But the president – just one day before on Thanksgiving – said he would leave the White House if the electoral college certifies Biden’s victory when it meets on December 14.

Joe Biden leads Donald Trump in the popular vote and in the electoral college
He also admitted that it’s a ‘very hard thing to concede’ the election.
He stopped short of admitting that meant he had lost – despite Biden’s huge lead in Electoral College votes – and refused to say if he would attend the inauguration.
When asked whether he would vacate the building, allowing a peaceful transition of power in January, the president said: ‘Certainly I will. But you know that.’
But, on Friday, Trump spent his morning in a slew of angry Twitter rants, complaining about the social media company, alleging the 2020 election was a ‘scam,’ and retweeting campaign style videos with a fight theme.
He shot off more than two dozen before arrived at his Trump National Golf Course in Sterling, Va., for a game.
