What options are you considering?

How will you move ahead if the president continues to refuse to concede?

Well, look, access to classified information is is useful, but I'm not a position to make any decisions on those issues anyway.

There's one, as I said, one president of time and he will be president until January 20th.

It would be nice to have it, but it's not critical.

And that's what we're just gonna proceed the way we have.

We're gonna we're going to do exactly what we'll be doing.

If he had conceded and said, We've won, which we have on DSO, there's nothing really changing but not ruling out legal action.

No, I don't see a need for big election.

Quite frankly, I think the legal action is you're seeing it play out the actions he's taking on.

So far, there is no evidence of any of the assertions made by the president or Secretary of State Pompeo, Secretary of State Pompeo Sir, what do you say to the Americans that are anxious over the fact that President Trump has yet to concede and what that might mean for the country?

Well, um, I just think it's an embarrassment.

I think it will not help the president's legacy.

I think that I know from my discussions with foreign leaders thus far that they are hopeful that United States democratic institutions are viewed once again as being strong and endure.

And but I think at the end of the day, you know it's all gonna come to fruition on January 20th between now and then.
