Trump is refusing to concede the election to Biden and reportedly planning a rally on his inauguration day. Here are 9 other famous presidential feuds in history.

Dec. 6 - President-elect Joe Biden's January 20 inauguration looks set to be one of the most awkward transfers of power in US history, with President Donald Trump still refusing to even acknowledge his election loss.
It's been a month since the election was called for Biden, but Trump has refused to concede, and continues to challenge the results of the election.
Trump has also not confirmed whether he will even attend Biden's inauguration. A recent report from The Daily Beast said the president may be planning a rally for the same day instead, as Trump hints at another run in 2024. 
Biden took a dig at Trump when he told CNN on December 3 he hopes Trump attends to so that "we are able to demonstrate at the end of this chaos — that he's created — that there is a peaceful transfer of power," but that his predecessor's presence is "of no personal consequence to me."     continue to read


Dec. 5 - President Trump said he wants a list of the 25 Republicans in Congress who said they acknowledge that President-elect Joe Biden won the election.



The Washington Post reported on Saturday about the small group of lawmakers, which it compiled by surveying every GOP office. The vast majority, 222 of the 249 Republicans in the House and Senate, did not respond or were unclear about their thoughts on the election when contacted.

Trump said he was surprised about the numbers in a Saturday afternoon tweet that bashed the lawmakers and the news outlet.

“25, wow! I am surprised there are so many. We have just begun to fight. Please send me a list of the 25 RINOS. I read the Fake News Washington Post as little as possible!” Trump said, using an acronym that stands for “Republicans in name only.”    

Two GOP lawmakers surveyed, Reps. Mo Brooks of Alabama and Paul Gosar of Arizona, said they think Trump actually won the election when contacted by the newspaper — despite projections that Biden has won 306 Electoral College votes to Trump’s 232 and received a 51.4% share of the popular vote to Trump’s 46.9%.    source
