Trump realizes his prophecy: me or chaos!

Donald Trump is closer than ever to believing in the fact that victory may not be his ally this time. Now he is grappling with elections that could not make him president for a second term as a plot was hatched to overthrow him. The refusal of the President of the United States to accept the possibility of losing to his rival Joe Biden on the second day of waiting for the result led him to launch a judicial battle, backed by armed movements of his supporters, to end the “fraud “and stop the counting of” illegal “votes in key states that would decide the fate of the race. A Race Preliminary results show that Biden remains the favorite to lead, as he approaches the threshold of the 270 electoral votes required to be declared president. An announcement, if it were to happen, would open the door to a crisis America has never seen before, especially since Trump seems determined to test his prophecy: Me or chaos!

Stop counting
Donald Trump still sees his chance to win a second term. His skepticism about the integrity of the electoral process and the ongoing scrutiny of mailed votes in various states, and the likelihood that most of them will be of interest to his rival, Joe Biden, push him to demand a halt in the count. and declare him president. The outgoing president of the United States is fighting to limit the count to the ballots received on the 3rd of this month, and he believes that counting them, alone, would increase his chances. However, the projection and the entire electoral process are considered an exclusive right of local governments in the states of the United States, which makes it difficult for the president to intervene except in one case: the declaration of a state of emergency in one of them (this it is not possible if it is not accompanied by a request from the state governor himself). Trump has a way out, and that is to take the battle to court, as he promised two days ago, and before that when he imagined that the 2020 presidencies would reach the threshold of the Supreme Court.
In fact, the president of the United States threatened to file more judicial appeals against the results of the elections in several states, alleging fraud in the states won by his Democratic opponent. His campaign called for a vote recount in Wisconsin, and lawsuits were filed to stop the counting in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Nevada, and he also asked the Georgia judiciary to issue an order to separate late-arrival ballots and secure them from counted (Georgia and Michigan dropped cases due to insufficient evidence). However, the complaints filed by the Trump campaign point to a specific aspect of the 2020 election, related to the fact that millions of voters cast their ballots by mail, which requires more time for the vote count. In the same context, The New York Times cited sources that it described as well-informed as saying that the United States Department of Justice has informed prosecutors that the law allows them to send armed federal officials to polling stations to investigate possible fraud in polls. elections. The newspaper added, citing former officials, that the letter from the Justice Ministry raised concerns about possible government interference in local elections or in the counting of votes.

Parallel to the beginning of a judicial battle, the actions of Trump supporters began in several American cities.

Going to court doesn’t seem like a good idea for Trump, even if he wants to go to the Supreme Court. Time is not in your favor, and you are aware that the court has a long way to go, and that there is something constant in this process: if any of your claims are accepted and the litigation continues until January 20, 2021, then the The legal term of your first presidential term has expired, which means that you will be forced to leave your post, unless your election is confirmed again. The Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, will run the United States until the end of the litigation and the name of the president is determined. As for the legal process, it is also complicated. It begins in the small federal court of a particular state, and if the judgment is not in the interest of the plaintiff, the latter goes to the Court of Appeals and then to the Supreme Court of the state, before moving, in the final stage, to the Supreme Court Washington, which can also reject the request if it wants to show its “neutrality.” However, Trump’s behavior raises fears that the outcome will eventually be settled, as it did in 2000, with a Supreme Court ruling specifying how the states will be counted. That year, the presidential elections in which the Republican George W. Bush and the Democrat Al Gore contested a state, Florida. With only 537 votes in favor of Bush, as well as problems with the state ballots, Al Gore’s campaign demanded a new recount of votes for the entire state. The Bush campaign appealed the request to the Supreme Court, which ruled not to recount and awarded the Florida victory and the electoral victory to Bush.

Biden leads
The Democratic candidate has no choice but to win in one or two of the remaining top states to become the 46th president of the United States. As of yesterday morning, he now has the support of 253 or 264 top voters if Arizona is counted (11 votes). The Associated Press and Fox News reported that he won it, but other media outlets still doubt the final result of this state due to the number of votes that must be counted and the intensification of competition in the last hours. After getting two confirmed victories in Michigan and Wisconsin, Biden no longer needs just six or 17 of the top voters to get the 270 votes he needs, which he can win in Nevada (6), Georgia (16) or Pennsylvania (20). On the other hand, Trump benefits in Arizona from the votes that are counted in succession, since the difference between him and his opponent is reduced, and the Democratic candidate may lose the 11 main voters that Fox News and AB have calculated to his favor based on partial results and statistical models. Leadership in the race is shrinking in five states, as Biden is slightly ahead in Nevada and Arizona, while Trump sees his previous leadership in Pennsylvania and Georgia decline criticism with mailing or other forms of absentee voting, while Trump maintains a slight advantage in North Carolina.

rampage
Parallel to the beginning of a judicial battle, the actions of Trump supporters began in several American cities. As tensions mounted, they marched in Philadelphia / Pennsylvania, calling for the vote counting to be stopped. Last night, about 200 of his supporters, some of them armed with rifles and pistols, gathered outside a polling station in Phoenix / Arizona after rumors circulated that the Republican president’s votes were not counted, chanting the words. “Count the votes!” And “Shame on Fox Channel!” But in states where Biden led, such as Michigan, his supporters chanted, “Stop the polls!” Around this time, people close to the president of the United States launched a campaign on social media to convince the Trump base that massive fraud is taking place, especially in states like Pennsylvania that are ruled by Democrats. Police arrested 11 people and confiscated weapons in Portland / Oregon following reports of riots, and arrests were also made in New York, Denver and Minneapolis.
These elections demonstrated that the current that arose around the outgoing president is greater and more solid than previously thought and will continue after the elections, regardless of its outcome. And if the president’s electoral base has been narrowed down in particular to one segment, the majority of whom are old rural whites, Trump will collect, at a minimum, according to expectations, the third-highest number of votes in the history of the US presidential election. United States, after his opponent Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama. (2008).
