US election 2020 live: Donald Trump wants to sue for victory...

US Vice President Mike Pence has given Donald Trump his support during the ongoing vote count after the US election. He is at the side of the president, wrote Pence on Twitter shortly after Trump’s press conference at the White House. At the same time he wrote: “We have to count every legal vote.” He wrote “Legal” in capital letters.

Meanwhile, the counts keep going – and it’s getting closer and closer. In Georgia, Trump’s lead has now shrunk to just over 3,400 votes. 99 percent of the votes are counted. And in Pennsylvania, Trump is now only 63,000 votes ahead – 94 percent of the votes are counted here. Trump’s lead without absentee votes was significantly larger. In Arizona, however, Trump is catching up with Bidenalthough not as dramatically as in the other two states.

Donald Trump’s appearance in the White House makes it abundantly clear that he is expecting a defeat with a probability bordering on certainty. Or does he want to contest the election too, if he still emerges as the winner?

The Republican Governor Larry Hogan from Maryland shows no sympathy for Trump’s statements: “There is no excuse for the President’s comments tonight about undermining our democratic process. America counts the votes, and we must respect the results, as we have always done before. No choice or person is more important than our democracy.“

Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s niece has been derogatory about her uncle’s behavior after the US election. “This is what it looks like when a loser loses,” wrote Mary Trump on Thursday evening during the press conference at the White House on Twitter.

Let’s summarize again: Trump has again claimed victory in the presidential election and tries, to stir up doubts about the electoral process with allegations of fraud. The Republican again accused the Democrats of trying to “steal” his election: “If the legal vote counts, I win with ease. If counting the illegal votes, they can try to steal our election. “ He was brave to want to take massive legal action against the election results in individual states. “It will go to the Supreme Court.”

The first reactions in the US media to this appearance are marked by bewilderment. He has not yet provided any evidence for any of his claims, it is repeatedly emphasized. There is talk of an “attack on American democracy.”

After this tirade, Trump leaves the White House press room without admitting further questions.

Trump: Democrats should talk about counting all legal votes, not every vote. We will win, because we have so much evidence. “It will end up in the Supreme Court”, we’ll see. “We hear horror stories.” It’s not about the victory of Republicans or Democrats, me or Joe, but that can’t happen to our country. “

“Democrats never believed that they could honestly win the election, so they started the postal vote.” said Trump. Millions of postal ballot papers were sent to all sorts of people who didn’t even ask for them. Nowhere is it checked whether the votes are correct. Trump speaks of a “corrupt democratic fraud machine”. He speaks of taped windows and obstructions, for example in Detroit. (Note: the windows were apparently attached to protect against rioters from the outside, not to cover anything up)

The popularity is enormous. “They’re trying to steal our choice.” Detroit and Philadelphia are the “most corrupt cities in the country”. And the forest should definitely not make a decision. Everywhere observers would be hindered and kept away. Obviously it is fraud.

Won by a wide margin in Georgia. 300,000 votes ahead. Also there is always calculated down. Many strange things have happened. Michigan and Wisconsin won too, it’s downgraded everywhere. Arizona has practically been won. Now ensure the integrity of the choice. Will not let our constituents fall silent.

The still open results would be “rotated in secret”; own election observers were hindered. Now there are many processes in the house. But he had predicted how corrupt postal voting would be. On election night, for example, he was way ahead in North Carolina, but now “they’ll find votes somewhere.” It is amazing that postal voters are all democratic.

Trump speaks of repression polls, a tool that has never been used in this way. He describes the polls for Florida and Ohio, which still won.

Great success among blacks, Latinos, and Native Americans. Republicans have now become the party of inclusion and workers.
