NEW: Trump campaign briefing call going on. They claim Trump will Pennsylvania with 40k votes. "We feel like the president is in a very, very very good position." Very bullish. They are not backing down.

Trump campaign adviser @JasonMillerinDC says Trump will win Arizona. "Anyone who has called this race is just plain wrong.”
Trump campaign manager @BillStepien: "If we count all legally cast ballots we believe the president will win.”
Summary. Trump campaign argues they will
- Win Pennsylvania by 40k-ish votes
- Win Arizona by 30k-ish votes

Note R districts still to be come in Michigan + Wisconsin
Are upbeat on Nevada with the race still tight.

Bottom line: They are saying loud Trump will win.
This is how Trump team is framing legal challenges

“We want to make sure all legally cast ballots are counted. We also want to make sure illegally cast ballots are not counted" - Trump adviser @JasonMillerinDC
On Arizona, Trump camp argued that their stats better than anyone sitting in DC or New York (a quote to that effect). Say they have their own data plus insights from Republican governor there. “We trust our data, we trust our math.”
Trump campaign said 1.2 million to 1.4 million ballots still to be counted in Pennsylvania. And 500k-ish to be counted in Arizona.
Important note re the above - I am not making any judgement on the accuracy of these takes. Dems will dispute many of their presumptions.

Just sharing what Trump camp is spinning right now.
(No questions were taken at the end of the Trump campaign briefing call)
One more telling thing. Trump campaign advisers talked about winning Arizona + Pennsylvania much, much more than winning Wisconsin + Michigan. Which means a hell of a lot is riding on Arizona.
Just filled full break down of the Trump camp briefing call. Will be on our live blog here shortly: https://t.co/SdcqDbTqIW

I was wondering why that tweet had so many stupid replies. And now I see


Seriously, this was “the night before.” If you’re at the march where they’re changing “Jews will not replace us” and “Blood and soil,” you’re not a “very fine person.” Full stop.


There are 3 important moments in that transcript.

1.) When someone asked Trump about a statement *he had already made* about there being blame on “both sides,” he said the “fine people” line.


2. Trump does clarify! “I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and white nationalists — because they should be condemned totally “

Okay!

Then adds that there were “many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists.”
