I just hope he doesn’t say something to the tune of “stand by”...cities will erupt and he will have won the greater battle. Fingers crossed....

PA won't be called until tomorrow but I suspect once Biden pulls ahead, they'll drop the hammer right there.

You remember when Conservatives were making fun of Democrats for grasping at straws trying to undermine Trump's 2016 victory?

100%. Once Biden passes him there’s no way trump can catch up

He'll be Trump I presume, talk about fraud, fighting it, winning etc.

Once PA finished up their tallies and he sees the margin, I suspect he'll back away from any kind of serious legal challenge.

This presumes of course the counts were straight and fair, which I believe them to be. They were also slow, awful and had no transparency at all, which has to change ASAP.

Another protest going on tonight at the 5th precinct in Minneapolis titled "F%*k the MPD"

No, it was how they acted for four years after the election, that’s what is remembered.

Is it true Don Jr made some twitter comment about going to war over the election? I'm not much on twitter (yeah, I'm that old). Can anyone confirm or deny this for me?

The Trumps vs. Twitter & specifically Jack Dorsey is a fascinating development.

Cities are erupting, but not by conservatives!

That's the biggest disappointment with Trump losing, somewhat joking, is that we'll see these terrible social media platforms continue to run they way they do.

[Eckstein197]

191,000 votes left in Nevada, 90% from Clark county which leans democratic. Nevada being super slow to tally but this ones essentially locked up for Biden

[Jopeal]

On one hand Pres. Trump should not have continually misused the Twitter platform once he was elected.
On the other hand, Twitter has put themselves is a very difficult predicament.

[Eckstein197]

Some of Trump’s tweets have just been outlandish. You can’t claim states before votes are cast. It is misinformation to say you’ve won state A when it isn’t guaranteed

Twitter & Facebook, while on seemingly opposing sides of the free speech issue, are both playing a dangerous game with influencing our political system.

It’s why you don’t give an inch to radicals. Like I said yesterday, the Dems should distance themselves from these people immediately now that the election is over. But they won’t.

Hopefully the issue is brought to court. I despise both companies.

[JustRachel]

If Trump comes out in these remarks with anything resembling "stand by", I might actually vomit.

I expect it simply will be something about making sure all legal votes are counted and all non-legsl votes are not, followed by some sort of jab at Dems.

We'll see soon I guess.

Yes!

Both parties should do this. Let's be real, pubs have radicals too...it just seems like it's a smaller percentage.

Your statement reminds me of the Reagan/Carter debate. Reagan absolutely demanded that "we do not negotiate with terrorists". The man wasnt always right, but that night he didn't even come close to wrong.

Something big will happen. Wonder will they act like Democrats have for four years.

Same.

I was hugely against Trumps misuse of Twitter during his Presidency, but I'm also very concerned about the political influence of both companies moving forward.

Both platforms and their respective CEOs hold Far too much power over culture as of now.

Both parties should distance themselves from their respective extremists but they won’t. The vocal minority has way too much influence.
