Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee still not ready to acknowledge Joe Biden as president-elect, despite transition beginning


Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee is still not ready to acknowledge Joe Biden as president-elect, despite President Donald Trump's administration having now cleared the way for the transition to begin.

Asked during his weekly briefing whether he considered Biden president-elect, Lee declined to answer, saying he is aware that the federal General Services Administration is moving forward with transition plans.

"I've been pretty focused on what's happening right here and not nationally," Lee said.

He said he was waiting on the president's ongoing court battles that challenge election outcomes – litigation the Trump campaign is overwhelmingly losing – and for the transition process to unfold.

1. Dumb ass.

2. I used to think the phrase "stupid idiot" was a redundancy,

but the Trump presidency convinced me it is real, and spreading.
I will be calling Bill Lee's office tomorrow to give whoever answers the phone a polite reality check.

3. Focused locally my ass

He's taken on no leadership whatsoever in state's ongoing pandemic and refuses to take any position which might be the least bit controversial, such as mandating mask usage.

4. Wait until a bunch of tornadoes rip up his state.

Then we’ll see how fast he acknowledges President Biden (good or bad).

Ass.

5. "I've been pretty focused on what's happening right here..."

Standard Reich-wing dodge when caught!
