Effort the republicans make in any court and the states to advance the absurd theory that the president is 1000 last night. Theyre watching r t internationals coverage of the 2020 u. S. President ial election my names donald quarter and ill be joining you for the program its certainly a nail biter so lets jump right in the fate of the u. S. Presidency rests in the hands of half a dozen states still counting their votes right now results their hang in the balance and could still go either way making both donald trump and joe biden confident theyll win the white house earlier the democratic candidate gave predicter a speech of sorts while the president took his case to twitter. Explains. Joe biden gave remarks that seemed somewhat contradictory he emphasized that he was not declaring victory but he believed he was on the road to a win biden said he will plan to lead the country in healing the wounds and divisions that have come out of the trump years take a listen to what joe biden said once the selection is finalized and behind us it will be time for us to do what weve always done as americans to put the harsh rhetoric of the campaign behind us to lower the temperature to see each other again to listen to one another to eat to hear each other again respecting to care for one another to unite to heal to come together as a nation now biden emphasized that he plans to govern on behalf of all americans whether or not they voted for him that seemed to fit the theme of his remarks this is more from joe biden i we are campaigning as a democrat. But i will govern as an american president now donald trump has tweeted out quote we have claimed for electoral purposes the commonwealth of pennsylvania which wont allow legal observers the state of georgia and the state of North Carolina each one of which has a big trump lead additionally we here by claim the state of michigan if in fact there was a large number of secretly dumped ballots as has been widely reported that tweet has been labeled by twitter as quote disputed and might be misleading about an election or other civic process now and are to see those tweets you actually have to go to the president s twitter page and then click on a disclaimer in order to see those tweets they dont show up in peoples news feeds and its quite quite a concern there not a single republican has been able to look at any one of these mail ballots they could be from mars as far as were concerned or they could be from the Democratic National committee joe biden could have voted 50 times as far as we know a 5000 times. The ballots could be from camden. Philadelphia unfortunately and say this about my own city has a reputation for voter fraud you have a reputation with dead people voting and were going to go look at just how many dead people voted year now the Trump Campaign has filed a lawsuit to stop the counting of votes in both michigan and pennsylvania citing concerns about transparency now at this point weve got 2 different narratives coming out of the major candidates trump seems to believe he is in the lead and that there is ballot dumping and fraud going on on the part of democrats biden on the other hand is arguing that it appears that he is going to be the winner hes not ready to declare victory yet but feels he will be the winner now trump has already raised the specter of bringing the u. S. Supreme court in and people across the country are essentially stuck watching and holding their breath watching and waiting as it is the day following the u. S. President ial election but there is no clear result we spoke to a lawyer and political analyst Christian Mancera about president president claims a fraud. Coming out and saying that there is some foul play without having concrete evidence falls into the narrative of the last hole d weighs claims of the president is igniting the divide and making claims without any evidence but it does portray a scenario where the president is saying its definitely a weird situation where he was winning and many key states and now all the states are of which are in most cases controlled by democrats and an extreme left leadership are now trying to in some way make these maly ballots count in order for the election to be handed into joe biden so i would not agree with me and explain that you think that there are more important things right now to more involved and to go out and generate more divided more emotion but i do believe that there is something going on and we dont have the evidence at this point we have to be very careful we have to wait until every vote is counted i do agree with that but i do believe that the president had a very important lead in many states and it seems a little bit concerning that overnight things have begun to change so well have to just sort of intention to. Begin to fill. In the donald trump nor joe biden seem willing to concede accusations of voter fraud and threats to take the matter to the Supreme Court are only putting more stress on the already existing divisions within American Society so taylor discussed the current political crying climate with arties morag as. Well that theyre claiming that they wouldnt get with an election this close with an election this close well where youve got to wait until the final hours to see who voted for whom who is actually leading you need to set a precedent d. D. To create fewer rules need to make noise to make sure that when it comes who comes in for a recount perhaps who are challenge to the Supreme Court you can say that remember i was shouting about this i was i was screaming about voter fraud that this was unfair so its not about sitting in creating a precedent these this was an Ugly Campaign the situation the streets in america is ugly people are completely divided and its a 2 cabs and this wasnt a blowout the polls indicate. This was a march cusa election suggesting that theres still a lot of americans despite everything that the United States has been through this year that support trouble and theyre all busy go to be very unhappy if theres a beaut president in the white house so now trump was created to do this noise shouting and screaming about the fraud and illegal activities and. You had him tweeting about 120000. 00 boots magically appearing provide 1st of all its worth say exactly balance that is likely to work with the heir to the sense that the cauldron but its everywhere now and this is this is being from stack you know if you create new ways then in the future youll be able to point out that this was you know trouble point and here we have a situation in which theres all sorts of crises in every state as you know something that either side does on a happy with and now theyre claiming that theyre going to go to the Supreme Court we want. To be used in a proper manner so well be going to the u. S. Supreme court we want all voting just. We dont want them to find any ballots at 4 oclock in the morning and them to the list. So youre prepared for any effort republicans make in any court in any of the states to advance the absurd theory. Was last night where there was such a mixed reaction to trumps speech up 2 am that when he came out all smiles by saying this is far from over and its not the blue wave as many were protecting its youre quite right inside but i mean still a lot of people thought you know what preelection this is just a lot of people saying all that were going to fight about but they didnt maybe expect it to actually get to this point ill be surprised that i actually got to a point of 2 president ial candidates saying were going to go to court well 2020 and all that of course there was a new put it this is the worst Case Scenario if one of them had won in a blue polls indicated you know it would be far it would be the sword the new president the other would be forced to concede the clues through these the mall worst Case Scenario it is because theres no room to contest the election i mean there were 50 observers for the entirety of the United States though there was no you know theres no outside d observers who you could then ask. People who have you knew bush neutral you you could ask is this fair with business for i mean some of these allegations if this election was in ukraine or in russia that we shouting and screaming about how unfair and unfree it was here its completely different the mail in ballots as well the early voting it will skew the balance of what was expected and what wasnt with with letters being counted obviously they favor biden because he had called it as worthless malin rather than a ted with trumpet d it was the opposite with different states having different regulations you know different vote counting mechanisms and procedures its just all sort of confusing to the point where you can say anything which is what both candidates have been saying you know you like. And you can tell the people anything you what anything you want your supporters theyll support you just because of the color of the hatch youve got on your head other supporters of the stabbings in front while white house near the white house today i mean people are taking out their disagreements physically oh mon another i mean this is this is the president you just proved to shoot. The now divided the United States more so than at any point in living memory. While we get more insight into the u. S. Elections were joined live now by Jeffrey Albert tucker editorial director of the American Institute for Economic Research thank you very much for joining us on the program now we just got some new some some recent news just in the Trump Campaign has also filed a lawsuit to halt the vote count in georgia in addition to other states so theres already a list right now for contested states does this look like the republicans new strategy now would you say well i mean gas i mean theyre going to contest this election this is going to going to go on for many months to miss really important for its base and my read of the situation on the ground is that probably for more of republicans think this is the entire voting apparatus is rigged and nonetheless the betting odds are very clearly in favor of biden you despite you know all the recounts that are going to come i dont think its going to change the outlook and the other thing to remember is that last night was a devastation for the democrats it just it just was. Theres no sense in which the republicans lost last time when the democrats won it was an overwhelming defeat actually for the democrats with the exception of the presidency and trump. Well you said the recounts perhaps wont change what what you know the possible outcome of the election but we also heard from trump and even biden who said that things are going to be taken at the Supreme Court do you think that this election is going to begin to be battled out in legal battles as opposed to the ballot box you know it absolutely will be. You know heres the thing and im talking to you now you know winston i and theres an acquiescence in American Culture tonight that bidens going to be the next president. And and and and a lot of trumps statements that hes made over the last 24 hours her consider why are they considered to be unsporting by some other people you know a heroic champion of the great cause this will go on for probably 2 months all the way up into the end of the year nonetheless theres an accurate sense that in fact biden has won the presidency i would say and the betting odds are have been that way since this morning so i dont think that whatever the Court Challenges are going to change anything with the possible exception of wisconsin where you have some implausible numbers that are coming out and ive seen a lot of a lot of Convention Online about these strange amount of turnout which seems like you know beyond belief level of turnouts and so there seemed to be a lot of mystically manufactured votes in wisconsin im not sure that actually changes the outcome though but look this is a tremendous failure of the american system i dont know what else to tell you usually after every election people are like well we argued a lot debated things a lot but now the system has worked this year. That is not happening theres nobody in this country who thinks the system actually worked it was either rigged or its broken or it didnt work or something so this in a strange way at least at the president ial level the election really settled absolutely nothing and scary to say that that its very sad for me as american to say that. What you mentioned the suspicions about whats going on in wisconsin i want to ask you about what you think about trumps claims of voter fraud do you think were going to see any evidence about that. I think theres going to be plenty of evidence about that and the reason is that the voting this year took an unprecedented turned i mean this is not a normal year i mean theres all this covert thing going on everybody is scared to go out so then made all sorts of exceptions for mail in ballots. Not to mention the fact that social media it was impossible to pull up any normal you know mainstream app at any point in the last 6 weeks where the dominant theme wasnt get read should devote go out and ive nursed anything like it like ive never seen a voter push like this get your mail in ballot you know get get it out i mean social media has been manipulated in this election banning accounts that are not quite to their liking pushing people to do this to do that i mean its been the been the most manipulated election certainly in my lifetime theres no question about that and we all know which way the manipulation is going so this is this is not a mystery right this is not we all know which way the social media giants were leaning the way the major media was leaning so of course you know if biden ekes out this little bit does time in victory with a couple of states that swing swing states where theres some suspicious ballot. You know wyden comes becomes president with with on almost you know with very little the gentleman say and certainly no you know serious consensus so there will be no mandate for biden and this will last for 4 years which is very interesting situation politically for for the United States especially since the democrats failed to turn up for that for the house the house they lost apparently 5 seats and the Student Senate is complete control the g. O. P. And not to mention that the Supreme Court is ari a done deal so by and becomes a basically a lame duck for 4 years where you know half of the American Public will consider to be. A fake president to seems to be more or less where we are right now which which is not unprecedented in American History in the 19th century the stuff used to happen all the time its just that since world war 2 weve never seen anything quite like this before ok well lets stay on the topic of joe biden for a minute in his recent speech actually called for americans to unite and not treat political opponents as enemies do you find that statement contradictory by any chance coming from the former vice president. Hes been making an enemy of champ and the republicans now for 4 years has has everybody on that side of the aisle. By the way i appreciate the sentiments i mean like at some level americans are just fed up with with politics its invaded our lives as to an unbelievable extent and and i would say that a large number of americans are just pray for some peace and normalcy and especially to get away from the lock downs and the hysteria and all the things that have you know been an unbelievable invasion of peoples rights in the last year especially so theres a certain ring of truth to what hes sane say and i would say is politically smart from to take that sort of conciliatory attitude at this point and let bygones be bygones you know but well see i dont think that a lot of the people that are dedicated to trumpet of work so hard for israels action including the you know hundreds of thousands of moves people have turned out to israel as of last month are ready to let this go and so theres can be a lot of screaming and gnashing of teeth over the next. 30 to 60 days already leading up to the to the end of the year absolutely so biden can just say magic words that everybody recognize me as president this go back to a normalized peaceful i dont think its any chance that he enters office my guess is as the weakest president in postwar history. Or do you think about the possible consequences of the delays in the final results do you think this could lead to some serious tension or even Serious Violence spilling onto the streets as a result. Weve seen a little bit of thought but i must say much less than i would have expected actually i mean said the tramp voters are particularly violent people actually. Theres a lot of anger on line and a lot of conspiracy theories theres going to be a ramping up and cranking up over the next over the coming days but to be truly you have to understand American Culture is exhausted at this point of politics last time it was one of the most exhausting days in peoples lifetimes they expected to have a winner last night it didnt materialize they will come to this morning with the odds complete the going the other direction theres a lot of suspicion a lot of you know whats going to happen is my prediction. Pardon me heres what i think is going to happen americans are going to become more cynical about politics than theyve been in 80 years that i would say the system has been to some extent not entirely discredited but almost entirely discredited. As i say half of the American Public who are not considered by and the real president and its true that a lot of people of thought that about trouble. But nothing like this i would say so biden will have almost no power especially with a Republican Senate and a house thats thats leaning republican and a blue wave that failed to materialize i mean you do need to understand the Democratic Party with their identity politics and
