Very odd speech. There was even some suggestion of saving face in case of defeat (“we were about to win and then”), then “we will win” and finally “we have won”. Legally Trump very sloppy. Asking SCOTUS not only not to count mail in but apparently not to count large cities?!
I would say maybe numbers in PA, MI, WI not as good as he wanted
Listened again. Trump complains about two different things. That vote was stopped (it is strange that it did in Milwaukee or Detroit) and second that mail-in votes will be manipulated
So it seems his strategy will be to force some kind of final counting while opening up the question of late mail-in votes (arriving after election day)
It just so happens that he may have good enough results in the three states to play this game. We get the worst possible scenario where SCOTUS will have to decide how many mail-in votes to exclude (if any). Margin of victory will not be irrelevant of course
