2. The tweet after the Poles.

His one retweet so far is the presser he had.

Transcript provided by rev.com.

He started by saying thank you adding that this was the “latest news conference I’ve ever had,” and then claimed victory.

And I want to thank the American people for their tremendous support, 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 won’t stand for it. We will not stand for it.

He lied and said he won states that he hasn’t yet won.

We won the great State of Ohio. We won Texas, we won Texas. We won Texas. We won Texas by 700,000 votes and they don’t even include it in the tabulations. It’s also clear that we have won Georgia. We’re up by 2.5% or 117,000 votes with only 7% left. They’re never going to catch us. They can’t catch us. Likewise we’ve clearly won North Carolina. Where we’re up 1.4%. We’re 77,000 votes with only approximately 5% left. They can’t catch us. We also, if you look and you see Arizona, we have a lot of life in that. And somebody declared that it was a victory for… And maybe it will be. I mean, that’s possible. But certainly there were a lot of votes out there that we could get because we’re now just coming into what they call Trump territory. I don’t know what you call it. But these were friendly Trump voters. And that could be overturned.

Texas was included in the tabulations.

See what he does with these lines, “We also, if you look and you see Arizona, we have a lot of life in that. And somebody declared that it was a victory for… And maybe it will be. I mean, that’s possible. But certainly there were a lot of votes out there that we could get because we’re now just coming into what they call Trump territory. I don’t know what you call it. But these were friendly Trump voters. And that could be overturned.”

They’re up big everyone, stop counting, but continuing counting in Arizona…

He blah blah blah’s for a bit and ends his “victory dictator speech,” by announcing his intent to go to the Supreme Court.

This is a fraud on the American public. This is an embarrassment to our country. We were getting ready to win this election. Frankly, we did win this election. We did win this election. So our goal now is to ensure the integrity for the good of this nation. This is a very big moment. This is a major fraud in our nation. We want the law to be used in a proper manner. So we’ll be going to the US Supreme Court. We want all voting to stop. We don’t want them to find any ballots at four o’clock in the morning and add them to the list. Okay? It’s a very sad moment. To me this is a very sad moment and we will win this. And as far as I’m concerned, we already have won it.

Moving on…

10:04 a.m. D.C., time.

4. More it’s fraud to count all the ballots. Twitter has already flagged it.

And just like the first flagged tweet this tweet is unable to be shared, but does appear in his feed. The link is the same, sends the clicker to Twitter’s civic integrity policy.

The ballots are not surprise ballot dumps, they are mail-in ballots, that have to be counted.

10:17 a.m. D.C., time.

5. Counting all the votes is bad for him.

Let it sink-in that our sitting President believes counting all that ballots cast in an election is “devastating,” and causing “destruction,” of course unless it’s in Arizona, by all means continue counting there.

10:35 a.m. D.C., time.

6. Shares a tweet that has now been flagged by Twitter.

Blogger Matt Walsh shared this tweet from “Conservative, operative, columnist, podcaster,” Matt Mackowiak.

UPDATE: The tweet that Matt Walsh shared from Matt Mackowiak has been deleted and replaced. Mackowiak says there was a typo in one county.

I’m not sure where he took the screen grab of Michigan.

Currently the New York Times Map shows Biden with a narrow lead, tiny in fact, in Michigan.

For an analysis on the election @ the News Blender.

My thoughts:

Right now, I’m tired, but I think we all need to remember that what’s happening right now is not abnormal. What is different this year, turnout overall is up, more voters voting. Mail-in ballots are totaling in the millions in some states, neither of those things point to fraud. We will have a President it will be Wannabe Dictator or it will be Biden.

There is also this to remember, none of DipStick Limp Dick’s screaming about fraud should be shocking (yes, having supporters supporting that screaming is a bit shocking as if nobody gets how vote counting works) but the DipStick Limp Dick has been screaming fraud since September, this was always his plan to undermine the American voters confidence, that the election was in fact fair and legit.

And he of course tweeted while I was away from the computer.

UPDATE:

10.

The New York Times Presidential Election Map. 11/04/2020

She says in the clip somewhere between 2.5 to 3 million mail-in ballots have been cast, and that the state is at around 50 percent mail-in ballots counted.
Interesting note; she says in 2016, they only had 260,000 ballots cast by mail.

For what it’s worth.
