Donald Trump will barricade himself inside the Oval Office and refuse to come out if Joe Biden wins the election, according to a US media report.
It seems increasingly unlikely that the president of the United States will win re-election and has tried unfoundedly to undermine the democratic process.
Trump has promised to take the election to court because he has been ‘duped’. There is no evidence of any widespread election fraud and Biden currently leads the popular vote by approximately 4 million votes.
Rather than accept defeat gracefully, as presidents have done in the past, Trump has indicated that he will fight tooth and nail to stay in the White House.

According to CNN, Trump has reportedly not prepared a concession speech and “in conversations with allies in recent days he has said that he has no intention of granting the election.”
Trump and Biden have yet to speak since Election Day.
Trump’s chief of staff, Mark Meadows (the fourth in four years) “has not tried to reach an agreement with the president on the reality of what is happening.”
The Trump campaign is reportedly trying to raise $ 60 million to fight the election in the courts.

According to the US media, some of his more moderate aides are trying to sell him the idea of going quietly to preserve the Trump brand: ‘explaining that lengthening an election that he clearly lost would ruin his business and prevent any political future he may be waiting for.’ for’.
Today, Biden’s campaign spokesman Andrew Bates said the former vice president’s staff were not concerned that Trump would refuse to leave the White House because security will simply escort him off the premises.
“The United States government is perfectly capable of escorting intruders out of the White House,” he said.
The president seems unable to grasp the idea of being in the lead on Election Day but then losing status once the mail-in or absentee ballots are counted.

Those counted after Election Day he calls “illegal,” although they are not.
Biden has 263 Electoral College votes in the race for 270 and the White House.
You need: Pennsylvania (20) or two from Arizona (11), Georgia (16), Nevada (6) and North Carolina (15).
Trump needs to win Pennsylvania to have any hope of remaining president, and even that is unlikely to be enough now.
Trump will be suddenly vulnerable to a barrage of legal action, both criminal and civil, if he loses the presidency.
Until now, Trump has used “executive privilege” to prevent people from testifying against him, but that changes if he loses to Biden, as now seems likely.
The Trump Organization is already at the center of a criminal investigation. Trump is also facing a case about his taxes.
Insiders at the White House have told the Mirror that his outbursts that the elections have been “stolen” from him are partly due to his fear of going to jail.
