American author and only child of former US President Bill Clinton and former Democratic Presidential minee Hillary Clinton, Chelsea Clinton took to Twitter on vember 16 to post an indirect dig on incumbent Donald Trump's supporters. While informing that 45th US President’s supporters were outside her mor’s home, demanding Hillary’s arrest, Chelsea said that she hoped y were wearing masks and that someday y “get over 2016”.
As opposed to general perception of chaos ending in United States after four days of tiresome vote counting, Trump and his allies have unleashed a new wave of unrest by promoting unproven claims of election being ‘rigged’ because Democrat Joe Biden is declared as president-elect. Trump’s ‘Make America Great Again’ or MAGA supporters have flooded streets, reportedly mostly citing misinformation as ‘evidence’ that election was ‘stolen, and subsequently assembled outside Clinton house.

Trump lambasts media for 'assuming' Biden winner
Evidently irked with outcome of US Election 2020, incumbent Donald Trump claimed he “won” race to White House on vember 16, a day after ackwledging president-elect Joe Biden’s victory earlier. Lambasting media for ‘assuming’ that Biden will descend to US Presidency, Trump said that his side is t even being shown. While Twitter labelled all posts by 45th US President as “disputed”, Trump said that presidential elections “attacked like never before”.
From poll watchers being “thrown out” to ballots being altered, Trump unleashed similar unproven claims about votes being counted to sow doubt among his supporters. Ending rant by saying that “world is watching”, several days after major US media outlets called Biden as winner, Trump continues to go on with his refusal to concede, stalling transition process and questioning long-standing democratic process.

While Trump has t yet conceded in race to White House, he is being criticised for stalling transition process that is essential before Biden and vice president-elect Kamala Harris are sworn in on January 20, 2021.
