WILMINGTON, United States, Dec 15, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – President-elect Joe Biden tore into Donald Trump on Monday with his strongest criticism since the election, saying the Republican had defied the constitution and the “will of the people” in not accepting the results.

“It’s a position so extreme we’ve never seen it before. A position that refused to respect the will of the people, refused to respect the rule of law, and refused to honor our constitution,” Biden said in a speech that came after the Electoral College formally confirmed his victory.
