2020 US election: Donald Trump Jr. favors “total war” – Slider – Vienna Home –

The president’s son, Donald Trump Jr., has asked his father to start a “total war” over the elections. Donald Trump must “reveal all fraud and cheating,” his son Trump Jr. wrote on Twitter on Thursday. This included the votes of voters who were dead or no longer living in the respective state, Trump’s son claimed. “It’s time to clean up this mess and stop looking like a banana republic.”

Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., also made it clear in a martial choice of words that he didn’t want to back down. “The best thing for the future of the United States is that @realDonaldTrump is going to wage an all-out war for these elections,” he tweeted “It’s time to clean up this mess and stop looking like a banana republic.”

However, so far no significant cases of voter fraud have been reported in the United States. Trump had been asserting for months without evidence that postal ballots were more likely to be fraudulent and he refused to guarantee a peaceful transfer of power.

In the states of Pennsylvania and Georgia, Trump’s head start is shrinking as more ballots received by mail are evaluated. Supporters of the Democratic Party had turned to vote-by-mail with more force than Republicans in view of the corona risk. In Pennsylvania, ballots that arrive up to three days after the November 3 election date must still be counted. The US Post had been working with delays in recent months.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump is barely finding support among his Republicans with his calls to halt the count in contested states in the elections. A good number of party senators opposed the incumbent, some openly. House Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said it was generally not uncommon for someone to declare himself the winner of an election, as Trump did, albeit prematurely. But: “Claiming to have won the elections is different from ending the count.”

“There is no justification for the president’s comments tonight that are undermining our democratic process,” Maryland Republican Gov. Larry Hogan wrote on Twitter.

“America counts the votes and we have to respect the results, as we always have. No choice or person is more important than our democracy,” Hogan continued. In an interview with the PBS station, he accused Trump and his side of having prepared the ground for the current procedure – the questioning of the results – with warnings about voting by mail. Hogan is the president of the National Governors Association.

Congressman Adam Kinzinger asked that evidence be produced for the fraud charges and that they appear in court. “Stop spreading exposed misinformation … This is freaking out,” he wrote on Twitter.
