Sen. Coons on Biden Saying He’s No Longer Concerned About Democracy Under Trump: ‘Misunderstanding … of Course, the President Is Gravely Concerned’

‘That’s a misunderstanding of what he‘s saying there’

EXCERPT:

COONS: “Of course, the president is gravely concerned about what President-Elect Trump might do. But, as President Biden repeatedly said, you can’t only love your country when you win. He is committed to the process of democracy. This was a free and fair election. President-Elect Trump is the president-elect of the United States. And unlike the election transition that didn’t happen in 2020, when President Trump didn’t attend the inauguration, when he helped inspire an armed mob to storm the Capitol on January 6, President Biden is committed to following through with the orderly transfer of power. He still retains, as do many of us, grave concerns, particularly given who President-Elect Trump is nominating to run some of the major departments, in particular, Kash Patel to be director of the FBI to carry out retribution against a published and identified list of enemies. Of course he’s concerned about that.”
