Its been two weeks since American voters delivered the ultimate Youre fired! to President Donald Trump, and ten days since the election was officially called for Joe Biden.
Indeed, as of Tuesday morning, President-elect Biden is projected to earn the same number of electoral votes 306 that Trump garnered in his upset victory over Hillary Clinton four years ago.
But Trump, who began his presidency by baselessly claiming his popular vote loss to Clinton was the result of millions of people voting illegally, has once again retreated into the fantasy of an election victory he has not earned.
Since November 5th, he has only appeared twice in public: Once to silently lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Veterans Day, and two days later, when he took to the White House Rose Garden to deliver remarks touting the progress of his administrations Operation Warp Speed coronavirus vaccine program. He has not taken questions from the press since Election Day, when he made a brief stop at his campaigns Arlington, Virginia headquarters.
As he and his campaign continue to contest election results through a patchwork of lawsuits (over 20 of which have been quickly thrown out as groundless), Trump and what passes for his legal team have largely retreated to a safe space.
Although all the major television news networks (plus the Associated Press and an election reporting service called Decision Desk HQ) have called the race for Biden, members of the Trump legal team have continued to press groundless claims of fraud and malfeasance in what sycophantic spaces remain available to them. Top of the list are Fox Business Network shows hosted by Maria Bartiromo and Lou Dobbs, and a pair of upstart conservative TV networks called One America News and Newsmax (both of which have made performative showings of not calling the race for Biden even though neither have the sort of statistical infrastructure their competitors use to project the winners of various races).

His plan must be pulling a golden rabbit out of his ass. Of course the recent tRump "save the vote" PAC is getting all the money for the campaign debts and the RNC from their gullible cult.
