"On Sunday, I very much look forward to the debate in Arizona with my friend, Joe Biden," says Bernie Sanders. Pressure was mounting on Sanders to end his campaign as Biden inflicted defeats in Mississippi, Missouri, Idaho and Michigan, carving a clear path to becoming the Democratic standard bearer in a potentially bruising matchup with Trump.

On Friday, President-elect Joe Biden said he expects his January 20 inauguration to be a "more imaginative" virtual event. Business Insider reports the event will be much like the 2020 DNC. "It is highly unlikely that there will be a million people on the mall, going all the way down to the [Lincoln] Memorial," Biden said. The decision is in stark contrast to that made by President Trump. Trump began his term in 2017 by arguing about the number of spectators at his inauguration.

Donald Trump has challenged America's democracy throughout his presidency. He's taking this to new conspiratorial heights as votes are still being counted in the 2020 election. Trump falsely declared victory in the 2020 election and called for votes to stop being counted. He also declared that votes arriving after Election Day "WILL NOT BE COUNTED," which is false. Vote counting is also a process the president has no authority over, says Business Insider. When other leaders have behaved the way Trump is right now, he has demanded they step down.
