Trump’s reaction has frozen Republican officeholders -- few have so far acknowledged the win, though they aren’t fully embracing Trump’s position.

Tellingly, the administrator of the General Services Administration, a Trump appointee, has so far not formally acknowledged that Biden won the election, as required under the 57-year-old Presidential Transition Act.
