election of President-elect
Joe Biden.In a Friday interview with Fox Business, Navarro once again relayed
President Trump and his supporters' refusal to accept the results of last week's election. "We're moving forward here at the
White House under the assumption that there will be a second Trump term," Navarro said. He then outlined how the
