2:35 AM: Reactions: Left, media: “Autocratic,” “Fascist.”
We tried to tell you and everyone talked about laws and precedents and Norns as if social constructs held any weight beyond our ability to defend them.
Trump is a fascist and America is in incredible danger. Recognize it. See it. You have to stop denying what is obvious.
— Jared Yates Sexton (@JYSexton) November 4, 2020

2:23 AM: Trump now speaking at the White House. He says “this is without question the latest press conference” he has ever had. Trump thanks the American people for their tremendous support. Trump says “a very sad group of people” is trying to “disenfranchise” people who voted for him.
“We won’t stand for it,” Trump says.
He says he was getting ready for a big celebration. He says he was winning everything and, all of a sudden, it was called off. Trump says the citizens of the country have come out in record numbers to support “this incredible movement.” He says he was not expected to win Florida and he ended up winning it by a lot.”

Trump says he has won Georgia and North Carolina and says “they can’t catch us.” Trump says he has a “lot of life” in Arizona because there are a lot of votes from “Trump territory.” Trump rips Fox News for saying it is “fairly unlikely” Trump will win Arizona. Trump says he doesn’t even need Arizona.
Trump says most importantly he is winning Pennsylvania by a tremendous amount. Trump talking about tremendous wins in Florida, Texas, Ohio, and North Carolina.
Trump says all of a sudden everything just stopped. Trump says this is a “fraud” on the American public and an embarrassment. Trump claims he won the election and says the goal, for the integrity of the nation, is for the law to be used in a proper manner. Trump says he will be going to the U.S. Supreme Court to get all voting to start because he doesn’t want Democrats finding ballots in the morning. Trump says he has already won the election and thanks all of the people who has worked with his campaign. He now invites Pence up to say a few words.
Pence thanks Trump and thanks all of the voters who voted for the Trump-Pence ticket. Pence says they will remain vigilant to “protect the integrity of the vote.” Pence says he believes with all of his heart that, because of the voters Trump inspired, that they are on the road to victory and will make American great again, again.
