    Default Trump’s efforts to overturn the election are about to hit a wall

    On Saturday, POLITICO examined how President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the results of the election are running into a “wall of deadlines” that could put an end to his options.

    “Michigan is due to certify its state results Monday. Arizona and Pennsylvania counties must also finalize their results the same day,” reported Kyle Cheney, Meridith McGraw, and Holly Otterbein. “On the heels of Georgia’s certification of Joe Biden’s victory on Friday, the series of administrative deadlines stands to all but formalize Biden’s win by officially affirming the results in enough contested states to put him over the 270-electoral-vote threshold.

    Furthermore, said the report, Trump’s most recent plays to change the results — including a meeting with Michigan lawmakers who could theoretically vote to toss out the election and seat new electors — appear to be falling flat.

    “After emerging from the meeting, Republican leaders of Michigan’s state House and Senate indicated that the election was in fact a topic of discussion,” said the report. “But they dealt a blow to Trump’s hopes, saying they did not hear or see anything that suggested the state’s 16 electoral votes should go to Trump, rather than Biden. Biden won the state by 154,000 votes.”

    The result is that many Republicans are now saying Trump should abandon his efforts.

    “I’ve not seen any evidence of fraud that could overturn 150,000 and some votes,” said Rep. Fred Upton (R-MI) on Friday. “This doesn’t seem to be about fraud anymore … I don’t know what path they’re on.” GOP Maricopa County Board of Supervisors chairman Clint Hickman agreed, saying, “It’s time to dial back the rhetoric, conspiracies and false claims. In a free democracy, elections result in some people’s candidate losing.”

    Defeat means facing Prosecution from the SDNY, so ... I have a feeling Trump will go down fighting to the end.

    Other than naming himself President for life, he is left with no choices, no options to fight. What could he possibly go down fighting with to the end?

    I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him pack up and leave for Mar-A-Lago once the electors confirm our new President in December. He's pretty much stopped presidenting anyways, what little he did do except go to his constant Nuremberg rallies for the faithful.

    He’s not done, the voter fraud route is about exhausted, so look for him now to go beyond the voters, get the State GOP Election officials and GOP Legislators involved, anything to get a State Constitutional crisis to arise he initiate a case that he can appeal to the Supreme Court

    80 million votes for Biden, a record high, and zero proof of any fraud.

    No. Tons of evidence of voter fraud. If it stands this time, there will never be another fair election in America ever again.

    Meanwhlie..houses being bought in GA have about 20 residents per! That's to skew the Senate election. Leftists like to cheat.
