Thank you for being with us whats the mood at the Trump Campaign headquarters tonight. Yeah good evening panic and theres really a kind of scramble right now and uncertainty moving ahead and thats why youre these kind of last minute lines of defense from the legal challenges focused on key battleground states of michigan pennsylvania and georgia and then of course demanding a recount in wisconsin. And so now theres just kind of this. You focus on the results to see what should happen next so save the rays does come down to one state then these challenges become very if they can hold up in the courts but if biden does surge ahead and pick up multiple states and goes past that magical number of 270 electoral votes then these challenges really become kind of a moot point and then
Presidency. President trump turns to the courts to try to slow down bidens momentum as hundreds of thousands of votes still have not been counted. Good evening, everybody.
