Fox News star Laura Ingraham stated on her show recently that Joe Biden will be inaugurated in January of 2021 and that thought “constitutes living in reality.”
Ingraham did state however that this could not be the case if President Trump’s legal situation dramatically changes.
According to The Hill:
Fox News host Laura Ingraham said on her Monday night show that President-elect Joe Biden will be inaugurated on Jan. 20 unless the legal situation for President Trump dramatically changes, adding that thinking this “constitutes living in reality.”
“Unless the legal situation changes in a dramatic and frankly an unlikely manner, Joe Biden will be inaugurated on Jan. 20,” Ingraham said during a Monday night episode of “The Ingraham Angle.”

“To say this constitutes living in reality, and if I offered you a false reality, if I told you that there was an excellent, phenomenal chance that the Supreme Court was going to step in and deliver a victory for President Trump, I’d be lying to you.”
Die-hard Trump supporters have been hoping that Trump would win legal challenges against the election, where Biden is projected to have won 306 electoral votes to Trump’s 232. As such, Ingraham’s statement underscores how some of Trump’s biggest media allies now think there is virtually no path for such an outcome, and that his supporters should not think that there is.
Ingraham’s show aired hours after the GSA (General Services Administration) authorized the transition of power between the Trump administration and the Biden administration.
President Trump responded to this news by updating Americans on his intentions to concede.
