You must be new to the US or you'd be aware that it's the norm for elections to be called weeks before the actual votes are certified

What a loser. Trump is the loser of losers. The biggest loser ever. Take it like a man and move on. No one is above the will of the people and the democratic vote.

To concede would be presidential. Of course he won't do that. Nothing new there.

Nope. You seem to believe Trump will be able to tie this thing up like he has so much other litigation, it doesn't work that way with US election. There are two events:

Dec 14 - Electoral College meets in Washington DC to declare their state's EV
Jan 6 - Congress certifies it

Note that the congressional duties on January 6th are largely ceremonial, and the Electoral College will meet regardless of outstanding litigation. If a state has an outstanding recount they will be given a deadline to complete it and declare their EVs. Recall that Al Gore conceded on December 13 back in 2000 after the Florida drama went to Supreme Court.

Conceding is a courtesy. Now ask yourself when was the last time Trump did anything, to anyone, that could be considered courteous?

I agree that the president shouldn't concede.
There was massive voting fraud happening in states that Trump barely won, I hope they do re-counts there too. I have as much evidence as you do ZERO.

I hope he continues to refuse.

I wanna see him dragged out, kicking and screaming. I wanna see the most embarrassing situation possible for this guy.
