The Biden campaign said that Joe Biden would have an announcement to make around 4 p.m., and Biden did indeed emerge from his basement to call for unity and essentially declare victory, saying, “When the count is finished, we believe we will be the winners.”
In a Wednesday speech, #JoeBiden did not declare victory. But, in a show of confidence, said, “When the count is finished, we believe we will be the winners” https://t.co/8QLspOjmQb pic.twitter.com/tiNwzespL6

Biden remarks were roughly 6 minutes. Kamala Harris was by his side but did not speak. Neither took questions afterward.

Biden basically declares victory, then says he’s not declaring victory.

He does this with everything, but yeah.

So both camps have claimed the win. It’s up to the lawyers now. May the best team win and may God have mercy!

Remember when they threatened President Trump not to declare victory ahead of time?

And that was all we’ll be hearing from Biden Wednesday:
Biden campaign calls a lid for the day, meaning that it does not expect Biden to leave his house again today.

It's a great way to not answer questions, which I expect will be his next four years.

This is the 2020 I’m accustomed to. The hidin’ Biden.

He already left his basement 3 times this week. Time to rest up.

This is basically what his administration would be like anyway ??♂️

Will he be calling lids when he is in the White House?
— Matthew Warren (@Matthew39207262) November 4, 2020
You will get that a lot of that he’s president. He clearly does not have the stamina or mental capacity for the role.
— SwissMissCJ (@caroljg007) November 4, 2020
He should accept his victory from his basement.
— My Handle Is (@DarylMoore) November 4, 2020
Let's pray this is his typical day if he gets in the White House

When Biden is inaugurated it will be the press calling a lid on covering his administration. https://t.co/y8dIc2k6FC

And CNN’s Brian Stelter is upset that members of the Trump campaign aren’t taking questions:
They keep giving speeches to reporters and refusing to answer Q's https://t.co/7WyfLBOiFX
