Today’s announcement from the president: Trump does not raise the white flag and a political crisis looms

Under the headline, “Trump Doesn’t Raise the White Flag: America in Crisis,” the Al-Akhbar daily wrote: “In light of the conditions in the country, the US presidential election appears: in crisis. The results are very close among the two competing candidates, Donald Trump and Joe Biden, showed the enormous polarization in the US Likewise, the base of the outgoing president clings to his candidate, in parallel to the absence of blue tsunamis that promised to carry out the “false” opinion polls . Announce yourself as president for a second term, before completing the vote count. This is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it does not appear that the dependence of the Democratic Party on the weapon of the epidemic crisis to confront and limit the red waves of the The tsunami has come to an end, leading to the conclusion A balanced section of Americans did not abandon Trump, nor did he give him the kind of outright support he hoped for. And in the event that Biden wins, which is the more likely option, victory will seem closer to defeat.

No matter the name of the winner, lines of confrontation have been drawn and will continue. Yesterday, at dawn, Trump declared his victory in the elections, while the scrutiny process continued, especially in the six states whose results depend on the outcome of the battle. In a tumultuous move, the US president said the time had come for a “great celebration”, anticipating the results of the rest of the states, which seemed to favor some of them overcoming the rival.

Competition has never been as close or intense as it seems today; Trump and Biden walk shoulder to shoulder in the key states that are supposed to determine the identity of the winner in elections that witnessed record turnout, after 160 million Americans cast their votes with an estimated 66.9% turnout. , compared to 59.2% in 2016, according to the US Elections Project. Concluding an election campaign marked by unprecedented intensity and overshadowed by the crisis of the “Crown” epidemic, partial results show that voters did not ostracize the Republican president as opinion polls predicted, showing that Trump’s base, even if he lost, remains loyal to him, which opens things up. In all likelihood, the first is your rejection of the result, in case you lose. Trump, who began to question the results and the way votes are counted in some major states, wrote in a tweet: “Last night (Tuesday), I was the leader in many major states,” adding: The election cards Sudden come and go. “Trump secured his victory in 23 states, keeping Florida, which had won in 2016, and Ohio, which had won since 1964, won every candidate who made it to the presidency. And he also conquered Texas, which was once apparently threatened. Biden won in 23 states. Most notably California, New York, Minnesota and Arizona, plus the decisive Wisconsin and Michigan, the results of which were revealed last night. The election scene was reversed after Biden advanced in Michigan, winning 264 of the electoral college votes, compared to Trump’s 214 votes. And while the Democratic candidate seems closer to winning (he needs six votes to get the nec It would be 270 electoral college votes to enter the White House), Nevada (6 votes), whose officials have said they will resume counting today, has yet to win. And if that state votes in his favor, he could win the presidency, after he added Michigan and Wisconsin to the states he won. The outcome has yet to be decided in two southern states, Georgia and North Carolina, where Trump leads, in addition to Pennsylvania. Biden winning any of the three states would mean no opportunity for Trump. The most likely path for a Republican candidate is through the Supreme Court. The latter needs to win Pennsylvania (20 votes), Georgia (16 votes), North Carolina (15) and Alaska (3 votes), to get a total of 269 votes in the electoral college, which is still a possibility, but it will mean that Trump, Who originally rejected defeat, will not accept the victory of his opponent and will petition for a recount in a non-state due to the almost equal result. All eyes are on the vote count in Pennsylvania, one of the leading states that generally determines the identity of the winner of the United States presidential election, especially after it has become a scene for an anticipated court battle between Trump and Biden. According to the rules adopted by the state and confirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States, theoretically you have the right to count the votes received by mail within three days after the elections, that is, until Friday.
