National Review Says Donald Trump's Refusal to Concede Is 'Worst Thing He's Done!"
The conservative National Review took President Donald Trump and Republicans to task in an editorial on Thursday that called the president's refusal to concede the presidential election a "disgrace."
"It was hard to see him conceding defeat in any circumstance, even if he got buried in a landslide. Having flouted norms throughout his presidency, there was no way that he would begin honoring them on his way out the door," Lowry and Ponnuru write.
"All in all, it's the worst thing he's done in his presidency and the worst exit of a defeated president in U.S. history, an effort that is not less infamous for being incompetent and risible."
They go on to criticize Trump's early attacks on mail-in voting, which the article argued may have cost the president the state of Georgia.
