While the elections in the United States are a close race in many key states of the country, the president of the United States, Donald Trump, claimed that he won the election and declared that he will go to the Supreme Court to stop the vote counting.
“Millions and millions of people voted for us tonight and a very sad group of people is trying to disenfranchise that group of people and we will not accept it,” Trump said. “We were preparing for a big celebration, we were winning everything and all of a sudden it was canceled.”
“This is a fraud to the American public, this is a disgrace to our country. We were preparing to win this election, frankly, we won this election. So our goal now is to ensure integrity for the sake of this national. “
He said he wants “the law to be used properly” and therefore “will go to the Supreme Court.”
“We want all voting to stop, we don’t want them to find ballots at four in the morning and add them to the list,” Trump said. “It is a very sad moment.”
The US president said the results have been “phenomenal”, including states like Florida, Ohio and Texas.
“It’s also clear that we’ve won Georgia, … they will never catch up with us,” Trump said. “Similarly, we have clearly won North Carolina.”
“Arizona, we have a lot of life in it… there were certainly a lot of votes that we were able to get because now we’re entering what they call Trump territory. That could be a comeback. “
It didn’t take long for people to report the claims of “fraud” by the President of the United States.
Trump accused Democrats of “attempting to disenfranchise” his voters. This is a full screening.
He called the routine vote-counting process a “fraud.”
In technical terms, this is authoritative and dangerous bullshit.

No one should view Trump’s speech as boastfulness and lies. It was a call to action for his base not to accept the results of this election. This could get really ugly really fast.

Putting Trump’s false and fraudulent statement that he won and wants to stop counting votes in a harsh perspective, @abbydphillip He says:
“Anywhere else in the world it would be a sign that democracy is in danger. It is a sign that OUR democracy is in danger. “

This came after a now-deleted tweet in which Trump said the Republican party “is big” and accused Democrats of trying to steal the election. But it was the misspelling of the word “polls” that caught the public’s attention.
It’s hard to believe that a sitting president * of the United States doesn’t know the difference between casting a vote and counting a vote that has already been cast. But he also believes that those votes are cast at the “poles” and not at the polls, so I guess that makes sense.

Trump ended up correcting the “polls” versus the “poles” problem, but ran into another snag with his tweet marked by “misleading” information about the US elections.
We are in BIG time, but they are trying to STEAL the election. We will never let them do it. No votes can be cast after the polls are closed!
– Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 4, 2020
No votes are cast when the polls are closed as the mail-in ballots were cast prior to that time.
The president’s tweet is not true. No more votes are cast, but they can be counted. Also, unless it’s a reference to the Polish people or utility poles, it’s spelled “polls.” pic.twitter.com/OCTmySSzsr

We knew this was coming, but let’s say it again: * All * the states continue to count votes after the polls close; and 20 of them count the mail-in ballots sent on time that arrive in the next few days.
There is * nothing * unusual or nefarious about * any * of those things. pic.twitter.com/lHfx7iYhjU

‘We believe we are on our way to winning this election’
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has also expressed confidence in removing the presidency from Donald Trump.
“We feel good about where we are, we really do,” Biden said in a public address from Wilmington, Delaware. “I am here to tell you tonight, we believe we are on our way to winning this election.”
“We have confidence in Arizona, that is a change, we also just called him for Minnesota and we are still in the game in Georgia, although it is not what we expected. We feel great about Wisconsin and Michigan. “
The former vice president of the United States also emphasized that this will be a long vote counting process, especially with mail ballots and early voters.
“We knew from the unprecedented early voting and mail-in voting that it will take a while, that we will have to be patient until the hard work of counting the votes is done, and it won’t end until every vote is counted, every ballot is counted. , said. “It is not my place or Donald Trump’s to declare who won this election, that is the decision of the American people, but I am optimistic about this result.”
“Every time I would leave my grandfather’s house in Scranton, he would yell ‘Joey, keep the faith’ … keep the faith guys, we’re going to win this.”
