Donald Trump poses with bride at golf course after losing election to Joe Biden

‘You lose and we all win,’ read one of the signs that greeted Mr Trump as he left his golf course on Saturday

Donald Trump posed with a bride at his Virginia golf club on Saturday shortly after it was declared that he had lost the presidential election.

The president got off his golf cart and stood for a photo with the wedding party, saying afterwards, “Have a great life”. He did not offer any comment on the election result.

The president has refused to concede the election despite being soundly beaten by Joe Biden once Pennsylvania — and its 20 electoral college votes — was called for the Democrat on Saturday morning.

President-elect Biden currently has 290 electoral college votes to the president’s 214 count. A total of 270 EC votes are needed to win. Georgia, North Carolina and Alaska have yet to announce their final tallies.

Mr Trump is the first one-term president since George HW Bush. 

Supporters of the president were photographed waiting for him outside his golf club in Sterling, Virginia and elicited a smile and a wave from Mr Trump as he drove past. They were accompanied by others holding Biden signs and one which read: “You lose & we all win.”

The 45th president was in the middle of a round, when the Associated Press and major US television networks called Pennsylvania for Mr Biden, making him the president-elect.

Once again, Twitter was forced to flag Mr Trump’s tweet over its credibility, as he tweeted on Saturday morning: “I WON THIS ELECTION, BY A LOT!”

Mr Trump’s campaign also released a statement, saying that he has no plans to concede to Mr Biden — who will be sworn into office regardless on 20th January.

“The simple fact is this election is far from over. Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor,” the president said in a statement released by his campaign.

“Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated. The American people are entitled to an honest election: that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots,” he said.

The president has continued to claim that there is widespread voter fraud, but failed to provide any evidence.

In his own statement, Mr Biden said he is "honored and humbled by the trust the American people have placed in me and in vice president-elect Harris," adding: "In the face of unprecedented obstacles, a record number of Americans voted. Proving once again, that democracy beats deep in the heart of America."

He and vice president-elect Kamala Harris are slated to both address the country at 8pm eastern time from Mr Biden’s home state of Wilmington, Delaware.
