The United States President Donald Trump has said that he would continue to challenge the victory of Joe Biden in the 2020 US presidential election in court.

This is coming as Trump after two weeks of grandstanding finally accepted to allow a transition of power to his potential successor, Joe Biden .

The president’s tweet came amid reports by local media that the General Services Administration has determined Biden to be the winner of the November 3 presidential election.

In his tweet on Tuesday, Trump said he advised the agency to start the process because he did not want Murphy, her family, and employees of the GSA to continue to suffer harassment and abuse.

The president, who is in court challenging the election results in key battleground states, said his case would continue, and refused to concede defeat.

He tweeted, “What does GSA being allowed to preliminarily work with the Dems have to do with continuing to pursue our various cases on what will go down as the most corrupt election in American political history?

“We are moving full speed ahead. Will never concede to fake ballots & “Dominion”.

“I want to thank Emily Murphy at GSA for her steadfast dedication and loyalty to our Country. She has been harassed, threatened, and abused – and I do not want to see this happen to her, her family, or employees of GSA.

“Our case STRONGLY continues, we will keep up the good fight, and I believe we will prevail! Nevertheless, in the best interest of our Country, I am recommending that Emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do the same.”
