President s direction in arizona and the president is tweeting 200,000 votes to less than 10,000 votes. If we can audit the total votes cast, we can easily win. We will know the tally soon. The tweet is just more evidence of the president s folly. Even if he did come back and win arizona, its not enough. Joe biden is still the president elect. Period. There are a few more republicans today saying its past time for the president to end this tantrum. Most gop leaders wont stand up to the president because they fear him and need him. Mixed in with the ridiculous tweets alleging widespread voter fraud are tweets about the election in georgia. Democrats long past being amused. The election is over. It wasnt close. President trump lost. Joe biden will be the next president of the United States. Kamala harris will be the next Vice President of the United States. Senate republicans, stop denying reality. Transition challenges could not be more clear. More than 700,000 americans filed unemploym
As we come on the air this morning, where Democratic Leaders Chuck Schumer and nancy pelosi are set to hold a News Conference this hour, and just a couple of minutes, talking transition, or maybe more accurately the lack thereof, expected to blast the blockades the Trump Administrations putting up, with one key republican senator breaking with the president , threatening to step in, if things dont get moving by tomorrow. President elect biden forging ahead on his own, making his first big staffing pick, while President Trump huddles with his top advisers, theyre thinking on his path forward at this point, according to sources close to him. Plus new covid crackdowns, as this country starts to relive the nightmare that was the spring surge and getting worse with the u. S. Seeing 148,000 new cases in a single day, another record, forcing cities and states to bring back tough restrictions. How concerned are you that your state, this region is at a Tipping Point right now . I would say very
Multiple states have improved new restrictions as the virus surges across the country. But there is some additional promise on the vaccine front. Pfizer has Just Announced its vaccine has reached a safety milestone and is preparing to file for an emergency use authorization from the fda. Lets start off with Kaitlan Collins. The pentagon announced the troop draw down as the president continued to completely stay out of sight again. Reporter hes staying out of site b sight but hes not staying quiet. This twomonth period is the number of days the president will be in office but hes making it clear and announced that troops are going to be withdrawn out of iraq and afghanistan. Those decisions are coming as the president is staying behind closed doors. Hes making clear the next few months hes basically going to get everything he didnt get done in his first few years in office on his way as hes on his way out. With two months left in office, President Donald Trump ordered the pentagon to wi
With georgia secretary of state hunting for 11,000 votes he didnt receive directing him to fabricate votes that continue exist. Threatening the republican secretary of state if he didnt comply. Its replete with trumps hall marks, bullying, pressuring, lies, misinformation but important to point out right upfront trump sounds exactly the same when he users his five words made to prove he doesnt have dementia as he does potentially committing criminal voter fraud, incoherent and clueless but at this point not point to. For reasons ever understanding what the gop has ushered in by standing by trump were going to play some of that extraordinary tape from Donald Trumps call with georgia secretary of state yesterday. First recorded on and published by the Washington Post and later obtained by nbc news. Listen. So look all i want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. Because own the state and flipping the state is a great testament to our country. Th
And even if you cut them in half, cut them in half and cut them in half again, its more votes than we need. Well, mr. President , the challenge that you have is the data you have is wrong. You should want to have an accurate election. And youre a republican. We believe that we do have an accurate election. No, you dont. No, you dont. You dont have, not even close. In another key exchange, the president trying to push a discredited conspiracy teary about Voting Machines getting manipulated. He gets a response from raffenspergers general counsel, ryan germany. Do you think eat possible that they shredded ballots in fulton county, thats what the rumor is and that dominion took out machines, that dominion is really moving fast to get rid of their machinery. Do you know anything about that . Because thats illegal. This is ryan germany. No, dominion has not moved any machinery out of fulton county. Have they moved the inner parts of the machines and replaced them with other parts . No. Youre
