He’s got lots more important things to do. They can cool their heels and wait until he has time for them. They haven’t earned and don’t deserve that level of respect. They need to come out with statements that he is the president due to a free and fair election. We’ve played nice way too many times. It hasn’t worked and it isn’t going to now. They aren’t 2 year olds who threw a temper tantrum. They are adults who supports the attempted overthrow of our government.
