I don't think this is a concession, but some people are calling it that.

I won't give up unless Trump gives up, and I don't believe he's given up.

I would say he has. Look, at this point you’re a traitor if you want to support him according to Biden, who was certified.

I wouldn’t concede. I’d just leave the keys on the desk and leave.

Many are calling it a concession. I did not get that either!

He’s clearly conceded, promising a peaceful transition. One need not use the word “concede” to do so. May God help us all.

It was an acknowledgment that he is transitioning power to China Joe. He did not need to use "concession" to get his point across.

It is over. Onward to 2022.

Can the DNI and or military enact the executive order from 2018, or does it need presidential action?

He never conceded. He never mouthed the words. All he said was that a new administration would be coming on Jan 20

He has not conceded. He is speaking of a new beginning. The Revolution continues for the forgotten people. They will be in even greater numbers. The difference being quite stark contrast from the elite a@@holes who think they can rule us. In for a rude surprise.

He said there would be a peaceful transition . . . perhaps he was thinking of himself being the one taking the oath? I’ll wait and see who moves in on the 20th.

Great, a hostage situation teleprompter speech. This general just abandoned the troops he led on the battlefield.

Read the words— carefully chosen. Especially those speaking of transition of power. Words mean things.

Only transcript I could find at the moment. Note, he doesn't say "concede" and he doesn't say "biden."

"I’d like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol. Like all Americans I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem.

I immediately deployed the National Guard and federal law enforcement to secure the building and expel the intruders. America is and must always be a nation of law and order.

To demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol: you have defiled the seat of American democracy. To those who engage in the acts of violence and destruction: you do not represent our country. And to those who broke the law: you will pay.

We have just been through an intense election and emotions are high. But now, tempers must be cooled and calm restored. We must get on with the business of America.

My campaign vigorously pursued every legal avenue to contest the election results, my only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote. In so doing, I was fighting to defend American democracy

I continue to strongly believe that we must reform our election laws to verify the identity and eligibility of all voters and to ensure faith and confidence in all future elections.

Now, Congress has certified the results. A new administration will be inaugurated on January 20. My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly and seamless transition of power. This moment calls for healing and reconciliation.

2020 has been a challenging time for our people, a menacing pandemic has upended the lives of our citizens, isolated millions in their homes damaged our economy, and claimed countless lives.

Defeating this pandemic and rebuilding the greatest economy on earth will require all of us working together. It will require a renewed emphasis on the civic values of patriotism, faith, charity, community and family.

We must revitalise the sacred bonds of love and loyalty, that bind us together as one national family. To the citizens of our country, serving as your president has been the honour of my lifetime.

And to all of my wonderful supporters. I know you are disappointed, but I also want you to know that our incredible journey is only just beginning.

Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America."

I interpreted his statement as conceding the next president will be Joe Biden. I hope he continues the fight to prove this election was stolen. His supporters and the country deserve that.

Stop praying. On January 20th Biden will be the President. That’s it. Game over. Trump fought for us for four years and despite every impediment put before him,. He did what no other president has done in four years.

We are grateful. Time to move on. Find the best stocks that support a socialist agenda, invest in them and ride out the storm.
