He knows this. Which is why he threatened the governor. I honestly can't believe the president of the united states would threaten the governor of a state of the election doesn't go his way. If Trump's militia does take action, wonder how the state will deal with it.

Biden becomes the underdog if Trump wins Pennsylvania because of how the polls are correlated. If he loses it but can win all the other states Hillary won, plus WI, MI, AZ, and one of the competitive electoral votes in Nebraska or Maine, he'll win.

theres basically one way for Trump to win the election, and it requires him winning every single state thats still considered a toss-up. Basically if Trump loses any of these states hes out. And PA is considered one of the biggest toss-ups.

Other large ones have the same issue, like for example if Texas goes to Biden theres no chance Trump wins, but PA is considered more of a toss-up than Texas.

Assuming NC and MI stay blue...

Trump needs all three of PA, NC, and GA plus a faithless Biden elector to win.

Biden needs one of the three to absolutely guarantee a win, but can still win at 270 without any of them if none of the electors go faithless in this stupid system that we have.

no, he needs to win any 2 of Nevada (biden lead), Michigan (biden lead), Pennslyvania (Trump lead), or Georgia (trump lead)

Michigan is a near lock, Nevada is very likely, PA is a crapshoot with how many votes haven't been counted, GA is extremely close.

There's no "clear path to the Whitehouse" if Biden Wins it. If he wins it the election is over.

The electoral votes don't technically have to follow who won the state. When an elector votes against the state vote, that's called a faithless elector.

Technically there's nothing stopping the individual people who make up the electoral college from voting for whoever they want, except for laws on the books in some states that make this illegal. Six electors in blue states in 2016 voted for people other than Clinton.

Michigan has been called for Biden. He only needs Nevada to hit 270, which he's leading. Penn isn't necessary.

If Pennsylvania goes to Biden he's won. If he doesn't it'll go down to other states. So not really.

GA is the least likely of these.

Nah, aside from the fringe, GOP has dumped Trump. McConnell turned on him, Fox is annoyed with him. New York Post thinks he's a fucking moron

Trump's done, stick a fork in the fat fuck. No one is coming to his aid here, he's full of shit and just wants to overturn a legitimate election because he lost

Yeah it's just some arithmetic, basically. You need to get to 270 to win the election, and Biden has a couple ways to do that but the easiest seems to be with Pennsylvania. It's a one and done, if he wins it that makes 273 and even if Trump wins everything else, he still loses. But if Trump wins Pennsylvania, Biden can still get there with some combination of Nevada, Arizona, and Georgia, so you're correct in saying that Trump needs it but Biden technically doesn't (though it would be easiest for him).

So yeah, there's nothing inherently special about Pennsylvania, it's just the current math regarding states already won makes it important.

It comes down to whichever of Pennsylvania and Georgia is projected for Biden first. Trump needs to win both of them, so either of them going blue is the end of the road.

did you watch anything past the first 2 minutes and just go, "If trump doesn't concede then magic happens and he stays president!" hell giving you minutes and not just the title is probably giving you too much credit.

the entire build up of the video is if the electoral doesn't get 270 and it goes to the house, where it's a state role call. There is no scenerio where trump can go, "FRAUD!!!" and the house goes "okay" His lawsuits have already been shut down in many states because they've provided no evidence of any fraud. And going FRAUD!!!! doesn't get you a court hearing.

So again, for the third time
