Stephen Schwarzman, President Donald Trump’s most high-profile supporter on Wall Street, said it’s time for him to accept that he lost the election.

The Blackstone Group Inc. chief executive officer said in a statement Monday that the outcome of the Nov. 3 vote was “very certain today,” signaling that even Trump’s most prominent supporters want to see an end to his efforts to change the result.
