Trump national security adviser Robert O'Brien says it looks like Biden has won

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump's National Security Council is preparing for "a very professional transition," because it looks like Joe Biden has won the election, national security adviser Robert O'Brien said in comments that aired Monday.

His remarks stood in stark contrast to those of the president, who tweeted falsely just before midnight Sunday, "I WON THE ELECTION," as he continued to make baseless claims of widespread fraud. Twitter put a warning label on the tweet, noting that "official sources have called this election differently."

The president's top security official, known as a Trump loyalist, offered a different view.

"Look, if the Biden-Harris ticket is determined to be the winner — and obviously things look that way now — we'll have a very professional transition from the National Security Council," O'Brien said in remarks made last week that streamed on the web Monday morning as part of a global security forum sponsored by the Soufan Center.

It surprises me Trump is still upright given the number of knives in his back.

I will take this source into consideration. If this guy said this he should be fired.

When do we just give up on this fraud of an “election” process and decide to open fire or die as slaves?

Taken out of context. He did not say this as a statement.

Best be careful. Think the headline doesn’t match the actual conversation.

Oh yay. The Enemedia has found another swamp rat who’s only objective is to be a suck up so as to stay in Biden‘s good graces.

Why would anyone working for Trump give an interview to the mainstream media. I even cringe when they go on the network Sunday shows. Dude, just STFU like Dan Scavino does. He is Trump’s most trusted adviser because he gives NO interviews to the media scum.

Only if by “won” he means “got away with theft.”
