At some point, this becomes a stain on Biden. I know he ran on "unity", but you were chosen as the country's new leader.... which the current one is trying to steal your position while simultaneously burning the country down because he fears he'll fail to steal it.
At some point, he needs to make a national address and put the pressure on. The House has decided they won't step forward because they don't want to step on Biden's toes and get out in front of him. Biden wants the process to play out because he thinks Trump can't win anyway so just let it play out.
However, with Trump escalating this... and I know Trump wants Biden to say something so he can fight over, he's gonna start to look weak by not formally addressing this. And it's not just over some bullshit informalities. Trump holding up the transition (which is going to impact the Covid-19 vaccine distribution) is literally going to kill more people. Biden has a responsibility to say something + use whatever legal remedies he has to push back on this. I've read enough to know there are definitely things he can do.. especially with Emily Murphy.
