He is going to hand Joe Biden a country more divided than it needs to be by trying to de-legitimate an election that was clearly won by Joe Biden.
Never before has the opposition undermined the legitimacy of a new President before he has even taken office to anything like this degree or in this fashion.
I think, basically, this is about power. I think he wants to cripple Joe Biden before he ever gets started.
He is obsessed with winning re-election. It's all about self-respect. It is whether he is going to be humiliated or not.
