It took days for a result to be announced. As the days trickled by, each State gradually announced their winning candidate and, throughout those tense couple of days, the numbers remained painfully close between President Trump and former vice president, Joe Biden.Trump was clearly feeling the heat...

“I want to emphasize that for their purposes these lawsuits don’t have to have merit. That’s not the purpose. ... It is to create an opportunity for them to message falsely about what’s taking place in the electoral process," lawyer, Bob Bauer said, accusing the Trump campaign of “continually alleging irregularities, failures of the system and fraud without any basis."But, regardless of his many threats, the results were in after 4 long days of ballot counting.

The Associated Press called the race for Biden when Pennsylvania's twenty electoral votes put him over the 270-vote threshold needed to win the Electoral College.Shortly after his victory, Biden Tweeted this:

And that's President Trump, of course.Now, Trump's reaction to Biden's win has been nothing short of outrageous.

Though the president is a historically sore loser - he's very rarely had to admit defeat ever in his life - and has long made wild accusations against the Biden campaign team, people simply cannot believe his refusal to accept what has happened.His first response to Biden's win was to release a lengthy and damning statement...
The statement then went on to explain how legal proceedings will begin immediately.
And the frenzied Twitter rants were quick to follow.
In his rage, Trump took to the social media platform to dispute the result further, insisting that he was the one to have won.He tried to take some small victory from the situation...
And proudly Tweeted that he received a record-breaking number of votes. Whatever helps you sleep at night, Don.However, more damning accusations were quick to follow...
Trump seems set on the idea that Biden and his team rigged the entire election to play out in their favor, and made strong hints that something happened in the counting rooms that had "never happened before."Did someone say sore loser?
Trump's flexibility has never been his forte. 🤔 #TrumpSoreLoser #TrumpMeltdown https://t.co/jGtBgLKYv5— Laure Om (@Laure Om)1604933547.0
