11. A Hostile County May Want to Host a Wannabe "President in Exile"

Also, given how invested Republicans have been in the idea of voter fraud, how do they disavow Trump claiming that he should have won, but for hundreds of millions of illegal votes cast by mail. If Trump loses and a hostile foreign country was willing to host him, Trump could continue rely on Republican talking points to attack the legitimacy of the election, criticize Democrats, and incite civil unrest.

Trump Supporters More Confident in Election Victory Than Biden Supporters, Polling Suggests

Current polling points to former Vice President Joe Biden becoming the next president of the United States. However, his supporters and Democrats aren't as confident in their candidate as President Donald Trump and his supporters are in theirs.

Going into the final week of the election, Biden has about an 8 percentage-point lead over Trump, according to a RealClearPolitics average. The gap poses a problem for the president winning the Electoral College, according to experts, But Trump is far from giving up and has a busy rally schedule in the days until November 3. Trump's supporters are still waiting in line for hours to secure a spot for one of his rallies, and polls show they're confident he'll pull out an election victory.

Two YouGov polls—one that was done for The Economist and one for Yahoo!—both found 87 percent of Trump's supporters believe he'll win reelection.

Republicans—not just necessarily Trump supporters—are also more confident in Trump to win than Democrats' faith in Biden. Eighty-three percent of Republicans put their figurative money on Trump, according to an Emerson College poll released on Wednesday, and 73 percent thought Biden would win. Independents sided with Trump by a slim margin of three percentage points.
