Mr. Biden's transition to power “not going smoothly” Concerns from within the Republican Party November 13, 5:55

Former Vice President Joe Biden of the Democratic Party, who declared victory in the US presidential election, continues to prepare for the transition of power, including a telephone conversation with Pope Francis of the Roman Catholic Church.

Meanwhile, President Trump is still complaining about election fraud, but there are growing concerns within the ruling and Republican parties that the transition to power will not be smooth.

Mr. Biden had a telephone conversation with Prime Minister Kan, South Korean and Australian leaders on the 11th, and then on the 12th with Pope Francis of the Roman Catholic Church to help combat global warming and support immigrants and refugees. I have expressed my desire to cooperate.

In addition, Mr. Biden is preparing for the transition to the administration by discussing with his aides about the main personnel of the administration including ministers.

However, the US media has critically reported that telephone talks with each country were not supported by the State Department.

President Trump has been accusing him of election fraud and has not received support for the transition.

Democratic Speaker of the House Pelosi said at a press conference on the 12th, "The number of people infected with the new coronavirus on the 11th exceeded 140,000, the highest number ever, and more than 240,000 have already died. And the Democrats are ignoring this number, unaware of their responsibilities, and making it difficult to deal with the medical and economic crisis facing the United States. "We should continue to do so," said President Trump, admitting defeat and urging him to stop the legal battle and work on measures against the new coronavirus.

"The Republican Party is trying to spread conspiracy theories, deny reality, and kill democracy, without responding to its common enemy, the virus," said Schumer, the head of the Democratic Senate at the meeting. The election is over. We should accept the reality that President Trump lost. "

Meanwhile, President Trump has been in intermittent discussions with Vice President Mike Pence and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on the 12th, but has not appeared in public.

On Twitter, he repeatedly wrote, "It's a fraudulent election," but there has been no progress in the trial to overturn the victory or defeat of each state.

Some of the ruling and Republican parties have begun to worry that the transition to power will not be smooth, with some lawmakers proclaiming that Mr. Biden should receive reports from intelligence agencies that are normally held daily by the president-elect. I will.
