MI - 149,000 votes
NV - 37,000 votes and growing
WI - 21,000 votes pending a recount
PA - 47,000 votes and growing
AZ - 13,000 votes and shrinking (but not shrinking fast enough)
GA - 14,000 votes pending a recount
Edit - he needs at least 3 of these to change to flip the electoral college; it's not happening.
Recounts change totals on the order of hundreds, not thousands, and his time is up.
Results need to be certified end of November
Electors vote on 12/14.
When does trump give up this hopeless fight? [Reply]

Trump's team has been trying their damndest for weeks to try and show some kind of proof that they're currently not secure. Hasn't been going well. And considering the Republicans' proposals are hypothetical, I can see why VoterID doesn't get much traction. [Reply]

Then I guess you’ll have to live with skepticism about our elections and you should understand that when it comes to undermining confidence, like the Russians, you’re part of the problem. [Reply]

Georgia confirmed the results and found no fraud after audit. Lawsuits in three states were again tossed out of court for lack of evidence. And yet you normalize this baseless attack on our election. [Reply]

There is only skepticism because Trump creates it. You know and I know it. What happened to you Patteeu? [Reply]

I disagree. I`m not an extremist but there is something in the air that doesnt smell right with this election. I`ve been voting since the early 80`s..... [Reply]

That's nonsense. There's been skepticism about our elections for years. Just search for the word diebold in the chiefs planet search engine and you can see it going back two decades. [Reply]

Boo boo I don't know what you are but you don't live in the middle either. [Reply]

Trumpers are going to be skeptical because that's what Trump has told them. Nobody outside the nutty DC conservative crew type believes this BS anymore. Especially after that clown show press conference today. It's just embarrassing at this point. [Reply]

It’s more people than you’d think. One of the GOP certifiers in Michigan was talking today about how he may vote to delay certification because of that ridiculous Dominion conspiracy theory. These people are living in their own personal realities that aren’t based in any semblance of reality.
The more Trump pushes these insane fraud theories and undermines democracy, the more he is going to throw doubt into the results for a good portion of these idiots. It’s a dangerous time for this country’s political system. [Reply]

I think you're being overly optimistic. This thing is circling the toilet fast. Their current lawsuits have been met with nothing but confusion and ridicule. That presser today was a 1UP from the Four Seasons Landscaping laugher. They keep getting more whacky, and they're making zero progress. Trump is neutered. [Reply]

The sham lawsuits were never anything more than a way to delay certification. They knew they’d lose them but wanted them out there to sway public sentiment. The next ploy is going after some of these government officials and lawmakers and getting them to ignore their civic duties to push certification back as far as possible. That may not work on most but we’ve already seen it work on some (and it likely will work on a few more ignorant unprincipled Trumpers). It’s going to be an ugly few weeks here. [Reply]
