I think Trump's threats to challenge the election are all fake.

16. I have said that from the beginning

and while he might get a few phenomenally corrupt governors like Stitt and Abbot to go along with Barr's EC scheme, I doubt it would survive a challenge in the state courts.

What i do expect is a flurry of lawsuits filed by his mob lawyers who have been spending most of their time looking for loopholes, that and fending off criminal charges wherever he or his spawn have done business. I doubt this will go on forever, the man has a lot of really big bills coming due and I doubt his empire will survive them to the point he'll have to spend all his effort and remaining wealth on trying to stay out of prison.

While the best thing might be if he ran away, like all con men he thinks he'll beat the system if his lawyers stay at it long enough.

About the best hope he has is if he resigns when he loses and has Pence handle the transition, counting on a pardon for all Federal crimes while in office. I don't imagine Pence will be particularly thrilled with getting this dumped into his lap, so a pardon is far from certain.
