Trump told an aide “we’re never leaving” the White House even after the election was called in Biden’s favor, according to Maggie Haberman’s forthcoming book.
Trump told an aide “we’re never leaving” office, according to the report, asking, “How can you leave when you won an election?”
Citing an aide, Haberman reports Trump told Ronna McDaniel, chair of the Republican National Committee,"Why should I leave if they stole it from me?" Though Trump’s refusal to concede the election for two months was unprecedented, this is the first reporting on Trump actually announcing his intentions to remain in the White House following the conclusion of his term on January 20, 2021.
Trump’s refusal came after an apparent change of heart, as he seemed to admit defeat to administration officials in the days after the election, according to Haberman, also a commentator for CNN.Biden would take office January 7, 2021, exactly two months after the Associated Press called the race in Biden’s favor. The admission came a day after Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in an insurrection that left five dead.
