I just heard a theory that Trump knows he has lost, but figures if he is loud enough he can start collecting campaign donations.

I posted such a theory a day or two ago. I forget which thread. I'm losing track of them all.

He wants to hold rallies to get donations for a recount. But the fine print in on his webpage says the donations will go toward paying off his campaign debt before any goes toward a recount. In other words...it ain't going toward a recount. But he can con his supporters into believing that to get them to pay off his debt for him.

Once the lawsuits fail and the debt is paid, the idea of paying for a recount in Pennsylvania will suddenly disappear. Until then...RIGGED! RECOUNT! RALLY! DONATE!
 
He has ceased anything resembling even the slightest whiff of a pretense of doing the job anymore, like attending any meetings at all or being on any phone calls at all or receiving any briefings at all (even of his own special kind of wildly reduced Kindergarten-level briefings). And even his Tweet rate is down and he's only made one small public appearance lately. That's the behavior of somebody who's just acting on however he feels at the moment, not somebody who's executing plans.

He's trash-talking, just like in Professional Wrestling, something he knows about.

He knows he lost. He also knows that if he amps people up enough, something might happen. He sees no downside to this. He sees no downside because he's a narcissist who does not care about other people's pain (other than the enjoyment he gets from causing it). So he won't concede. He won't let GSA get the ball rolling on transition. He'll keep filing lawsuits because their funding is crowd-sourced anyway and the fundraising helps pay off his debts. None of this presents any risk to him personally.

He knows he lost, but he figures maybe somehow he can hang on anyway. And again, he sees no downside to trying.

There is of course, a downside, for us, for the nation, for the incoming administration, even the whole world as America is still a very powerful and influential nation. And there is potential for that downside to be enormous - but not to Trump (or so he believes).

So he'll just keep on trash talking. Screw the rest of us.

The details are just mind blowing!

If a donor gave $500, $300 would go to Trump’s new PAC Save America, $200 would go to the RNC, $0 to his election defense fund.

Only if a donation is above $8000 will some money go the election defense fund.

Authorities arrested a man in New York after he threatened to kill “anyone that claims to be a democrat” and “blow up” the FBI on social media, prosecutors said.

Prosecutors said members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force, including FBI agents and New York Police Department officers, arrested Brian Maiorana, 54, early Tuesday at his home on Staten Island.

Maiorana was charged in a federal complaint with threatening to kill and ordering others to kill protesters, law enforcement members and elected officials, including Sen. Chuck Schumer, (D-N.Y.), according to papers filed in the Eastern District of New York.

Trump Tweets



Nobody wants to report that Pennsylvania and Michigan didn’t allow our Poll Watchers and/or Vote Observers to Watch or Observe. This is responsible for hundreds of thousands of votes that should not be allowed to count. Therefore, I easily win both states. Report the News!

That's because they didn't. Amazing how the press don't report on the Martians landing!

My main point is a full hand recount is less accurate than a machine recount.

:eye-poppi

really?

In the UK our entire election is counted by hand. 30million ballots last time around.

If you setup the right processes you get an extremely accurate count when it's done by hand.

Well, that might be because it ain't true (Forbes article):

Isn't Trump talking to the lawyers representing him? Or (this seems more likely) just not listening to them?

Because trump is maliciously misrepresenting the facts, the way he always does.

‘You know why I do it? I do it to discredit you all and demean you all so that when you write negative stories about me no one will believe you.’

To not see malice in trump's actions is to be willfully blind to it.
