The presidents team is gearing up for legal challenges. The Biden campaign calls them frivolous and without merit.

The 2020 presidential election is coming down to the wire, and both candidates have potential paths to victory. But President Donald Trumps campaign is already looking ahead to the legal battles its pledged to wage against states that it baselessly accused of stealing the election for Biden. And its building up a war chest to finance the effort.
Trumps 2020 campaign was hamstrung by cash shortages and allegations of financial mismanagement. The team there already took steps in the days before the election to keep contributions rolling through mid-December. Its post-election day cash blitz could provide additional funding to continue litigating the election in court.
From midnight on Tuesday to about 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, the Trump campaign and its Republican National Committee joint fundraising account have blasted out nine emails to their supporters asking them to chip in additional funds. The results are rolling in and were well on our way to WINNING BIG, declared one email sent under Vice President Mike Pences name on Wednesday morning. But, its only a matter of time before the Democrats try to steal the Election and manipulate the results... We need your help to ensure we have the proper resources to protect the results.
On Wednesday morning, the campaign sent out text message appeals as well claiming Dems & Fake News want to STEAL this Election! and promising a 1000% match for donations.

(33,643 posts)This is blatant ... one last big haul for IQ45 before he rides off into the sunset.
Yet, I'm sure many, many rubes are going to fall for it.
Course, he's going to be needing that money for legal cases in the near future ... but they won't be related to the election. Perhaps the fact that the 1000% promise is a total lie will be looked at. Seems illegal to me.
