 * President Donald Trump needs to win both Arizona and Pennsylvania to defeat Democrat Joe Biden, GOP pollster Frank Luntz told CNBC. 
 * The race for Arizona’s 11 electoral votes is too early to call, according to NBC News. 
 * “Arizona can flip to Trump, based on where the votes are still coming from,” Luntz argued. 
 * The president leads in Pennsylvania, which has 20 electoral votes, but that could change as vote counting continues. 

He also needs some other states too. President Donald Trump’s path to securing a second term now relies on defeating Democrat Joe Biden in Arizona, GOP strategist and pollster Frank Luntz told CNBC on Thursday. 

The outcome in Arizona, which has 11 electoral votes, remains too early to call, according to NBC News. But with 86% of the state’s expected vote tallied, Biden leads with 50.5% versus Trump’s 48.1%. 

“Arizona is the place where the battle is going to happen, because the president cannot be reelected without winning both Arizona and Pennsylvania,” Luntz said on “Squawk Box.” 


WNU Editor: The above GOP pollster is stating the obvious. President Trump needs to win these states. But the count in Georgia is very very close. The votes around Atlanta are still being counted, and they are voting heavily to Joe Biden. There is a very good chance that President Trump may lose in Georgia. Albeit by a few thousand votes.

WNU,

It is called vote fraud. The normal checks and balance between ruled and rulers in a Democracy will be gone if fraud is too high.

People who get away with vote fraud will have the same moves in international relations and the economy. It will lead to no hurt feeling, misallocation of resources, or wars.

Maybe I'll send you a t-shirt of "I did my part" for you awesome work with the COVID panic porn.

Trump is the 1st American president to not start war in a long time. People think it is remarkable. Some of those people are the same ones, who in 2016 said he would absolutely start a war.

So what do these people do? Vote Biden. They will be shocked or act shocked when they get more war. That is more than Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria.

Just dumb mothers.

"It is called vote fraud." There definitely seems to be a great deal of "smoke" here. Where there is "smoke" there's usually a "fire." For the courts to intervene, they will probably want to see the actual "fire." Team Trump is does seem to be launching a number of court challenges and the Republican leadership, while tepid, does not appear to have been withdrawn. In other words, they don't seem outright hostile to these efforts. As such, it would seem likely that the legal team for team Trump has the "fire" to present. I've also noticed that Trump and his team have very little wasted motion.

Btw, I believe your last two paragraphs to be particularly spot on. While cutting back military spending actually might be a good idea as long as the nuclear deterrent is preserved and missions are scaled back. Expanding the missions, neglecting the nuclear deterrent as had been done in the past, and cutting funding would be especially unwise.
