The United States President Donald Trump has accused the media of imposing Democrat Joe Biden on Americans as the 46 presidents-elect of the country.
Biden won the election Saturday after polling 290 Electoral College votes as against Trump’s 214 votes. Results are still being counted from the three remaining states.
Trump, who in a tweet Sunday evening described the media as ‘lamestream’, said: “Since when do the ‘lamestream’ media call who our next president will be? We have all learned a lot in the last two weeks.”
It is over 24 hours since Biden won the mandatory 270 Electoral College vote needed to win the US presidential contest, and Trump is yet to concede defeat.
It is unclear what his next line of action will be.
Reporters At Large had earlier reported that President Trump has vowed not to recognize Democrat Joe Biden as the elected 46th president of the country. He said the election was stolen from him by thieves.
Meanwhile, there are indications that the First Lady of the US, Melania Trump, son-in-law and Senior Adviser, Jared Kushner and some allies are putting pressure on him not to embark on any legal battle against the results as this would put a dent on the country’s democratic system, especially in the eyes of the world.
