Mitch McConnell has just thrown down the gauntlet, Anderson. I think we're going to have a titanic fight over this.
It is vital that as President, tell his base and tell the whole country that he believes Joe Biden is a legitimate President, that he has not been put there by fraud.
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.
The President today was talking about this is going to be the hardest decision - decision that he's going to make.
