Trump Says He Will Physically Leave White House If Biden Wins Electoral College

Topline

 President Donald Trump has so far refused to concede the election, but on Thursday he said he would physically leave the White House if the electoral college officially votes for Biden, the closest Trump has come to admitting he lost.

Key Facts

When asked by a reporter if he would leave the building if the electoral college elected Biden, Trump said: “Certainly I will.”

Still, Trump maintained that he actually won because of widespread voter fraud, adding that, “I think there will be a lot of things happening between now and the 20th of January, a lot of things, massive fraud has been found.”

Though the Republican Party has stood by Trump, a growing number of Republican lawmakers have slowly started to acknowledge Biden’s victory.

Key Background

Trump has continued to insist, without evidence, that Biden actually lost and the election was tainted by widespread voter fraud. The Trump campaign and the GOP have lost nearly every lawsuit so far challenging the vote in contested states, while a former member of Trump’s legal team, Sidney Powell, was ousted from the campaign last week after she pushed an outlandish conspiracy theory implying former Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who died in 2013, rigged voting machines.
