Dan Balz: Judging by his actions, Trump appears to have a motive other than overturning the election. He is determined to cripple Bidens presidency even before it becomes official. No defeated president has ever undertaken such an audacious and anti-democratic act. There are short-term and longer-term consequences that could deeply affect Bidens ability to govern.
This is a mean-spirited effort on the part of the president to gum up what should be an orderly, nonpartisan process.

(4,112 posts)about a billion times more about government and how to move those levers than Trump (and his evil minions) could ever hope to know. They will successfully navigate the vast majority of his obstructions. Sure, McConnell knows a few tricks, but I have a feeling in my bones that he's not going to be as consequential as he'd like to think he is. Call it a hunch.
