Donald Trump's closest Wall Street ally Blackstone billionaire Steve Schwarzman tells president to give up doomed legal fight and says 'country should move on'

Steve Schwarzman, the billionaire businessman who's been a long time supporter of Donald Trump's, now says the election is over and the president needs to move on in a sign of dwindling support for Trump's doomed legal battle.

In the immediate aftermath of the election Schwarzman, the CEO of the Blackstone Group, defended the president's right to pursue legal battles and told the business community Trump had the right to pursue all avenues.

But now he's recognizing Joe Biden's victory.

'I'm a fan of good process,' Schwarzman told Axios. 'In my comments three days after the election, I was trying to be a voice of reason and express why it's in the national interest to have all Americans believe the election is being resolved correctly. But the outcome is very certain today, and the country should move on.'

'I supported President Trump and the strong economic path he built. Like many in the business community, I am ready to help President-elect Biden and his team as they confront the significant challenges of rebuilding our post-COVID economy,' he added.

When We want your opinion we will give it to you. Otherwise, mind your own business.

Billionaires will always be fine, he isn’t their POTUS. It is the regular middle class worker & his family that want him to continue as they know what is likely to happen & who is going to suffer for it.

Sorry, win lose or draw, the corruption involved needs a full public airing. The public has a right to know the details. Screw what the elite thinks. They are trying to ram this down our throats and goad us into submission. . . evil to the core.

Fight to the bitter end, Trump.

Have your day in court.

Expose the fraud.

Start a new party.

I'm with you and 80 million others are as well.

I am fed up with back-stabbing RINOS.

Of course I don’t know this “close ally” of President Trump ... but it’s clear to me he doesn’t understand what Trump is fighting for ... and this fight isn’t about Wall Street.

I wonder if he thinks we should’ve surrendered to the Japanese after Pearl Harbor? You know, just move on.

All people involved in government supported, systemic fakery, will happily accept electoral fakery, because they all know its designed to keep the status quo in place.

Of course that means Wall Street

If it doen’t get revealed with Cohen Watnick who is Flynn’s guy it isn’t going to happen.

Perhaps one day a CIA Family Jewels type document will come out about vote rigging.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

Trump has over 73 million allies and needs fewer Deep Wall Street friends.
