Trump’s Playbook on Election Night to Win The Election

Should Donald Trump lose the initial and final vote tally, he still has a game plan to win the election and has set it in motion.

Election deniers (defined by USA Today as those who have publicly denied the legitimacy of the 2020 election) are positioned as election officials to scan the ballots to challenge their validity.

If Donald Trump loses to Kamala Harris, the election denier’s objections will become material for lawyers filing lawsuits to challenge state or county results. Judges on various levels, including the Supreme Court, can toss the decision of who the next president is to the state legislature or directly to the House of Representatives.

Election night results put the plan in motion.

Multiple polls show that the presidential race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump is too close to call. However, after the initial votes are released, Trump will likely again ignore the results if he loses.

I will not explore how he will respond or what actions he could take if he wins; that is a different problem. I also am not addressing the issue of intentional violence to overturn the results, as happened with the mob attacking Congress in 2020. Instead, I’m examining how Trump can legally play the political system.
