eric trump, rudy giuliani, and other trump campaign advisors held a press conference earlier today in philadelphia as pennsylvania officials continued counting votes in the 2020 election. while declaring victory in the state and citing voter fraud, rudy giuliani announced the campaign announced a lawsuit in pennsylvania to throw out absentee ballots that they feel should not be counted. he said similar lawsuits have been filed in wisconsin, michigan, arizona, and nevada. because of technical difficulties, we missed the beginning of this event. >> down in the convention center, they won't even let him watch as they count the ballots. they put them behind the fence, 50 yards away. they can't see the counting happening. this is fraud. this is absolute fraud. we have seen it in philadelphia before. they are trying to make a mockery of the election of this country. my father is up by almost half a million votes in the state. 86% reported. plenty of red counties left to go. plenty of red counties left to go. we will win pennsylvania. they are trying to cheat us out of it because they know i

but the president's sons, don junior and eric trump, they're pushing republicans and trump supporters the election results, which brings us to tonight's cross-exam with cnn legal analyst elie honig, former u.s. assistant attorney for the southern district of new york. one viewer asks how realistic is it that president trump can succeed on a strategy of challenging state election results in court? >> ana, here is my free, unsolicited advice for president trump. it's over. it is over. this legal strategy has almost no chance of changing the outcome of the election. the biggest problem is they simply dot no have reliable evidence of widespread voter fraud. we are seeing courts around the country dismiss these lawsuits from the trump campaign almost as quickly as they're filed. we've seen dismissals in georgia, in michigan, in nevada, in arizona. the only case with any realistic chance so far is the one out of pennsylvania involving the extension of deadline from november 3rd to november 6th. the supreme court has shown some potential willingness to take that case and perhaps to throw out

it was supposed to happen on this street corner here, rudy giuliani, eric trump, lara trump, pam bondined to be here to announce plans to sue pennsylvania democrats over this election. but then protesters showed up. police moved in to try to keep everybody safe. so they had to change where that press conference is happening. it should be starting any minute. i point out the building we're next to, why it is significant. this is the pennsylvania convention center. this, sr. with the city of philadelphia is counting the mail in votes that they have received. across the state this is critical because so far more than a million mail-in ballots still have to be counted. so that could tip the scales. the president's team, their campaign saying they will plan to sue to halt that vote count. the governor of pennsylvania saying that is not going to happen. listen. >> the delay that we're seeing is a sign that the system is working. this is a new system. it went into effect with act 77 last year. there are three million, millions of mail-in ballots that are being counted. and that takes longer t

of -- i'll be speaking with eric trump for a moment but first let's listen to the president for a fewinutes. [cheering and applause] president trump: be careful. joe, this could only happen to me. [chanting] president trump: thank you. in 2016 pennsylvania voted to fire this corrupt political establishment and you elected an outsider as president who is finally putting america first. that's okay, right? [cheering and applause] if i don't sound like a typical washington politician it is because i'm not a politician. i guess that is why i got elected. if i don't always play by the rules of washington and the washington establishment it is because i was elected to fight for you and i fight harder for you than any president than ever before. one of the most important issues in this election is law and order and you know about it well and you see what is going on in your large city and it is not good. you've great police but they're not allowed to do their job. this week violent mobs of biden supporters ransacked philadelphia and now for members of the city council are pushing very hard to

then eric trump will join us on his father's race, he's been campaigning. to find out the campaign's final plans in the final day of the historic contest. joining me all morning long is dagen mcdowell and lee carter. we'll get to those ladies when we come back. you're watching "mornings with maria" live on fox business. stay with us. i'm still discovering what's next. and still going for my best. even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib... ...not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's a better treatment than warfarin, i'm reaching for that. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. what's next? i'm on board. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily- -and

forgiven infractions for conservative ve pages and pundits such as breitbart, donald trump jr., eric trump, gateway pundit based on a fear of accusations of ions bias.as. has facebook avoided penalizingf or fact-checking conservative pages that had violated its its policies based on concerns of political bias and allegations of bias? >> senator, no, we haven't done that. and i think that those reports mischaracterize the actions we take. i'm not aware of any instance where we have overturned a fact check specifically. and certainly no action like that would be taken for the reasons that you're saying. som what we do sometimes is if -- ia apply some judgment on whether the repeat offender policies would render too harsh of a poi penalty, but that's different from overturning a specific fact check and not done for it the t reasons you said. >> well, i'm very concerned at, that, in fact, facebook seems to have a record of making accommodations and caving to conservative pressure. to and the president has tried to use an executive order on eat section 230 to, again, bully or brow beat and exer

i watched eric trump and pam bondi today in pennsylvania. donald trump up over 400,000 votes.y introduced a poll watcher. should be able to watch the polls. is it postmarked and have the signature? not allowed near it. doesn't that almost render that vote, take away all trust that people have in it? >> especially when you have these vote dumps that are happening a day or two after election night. one candidate has a huge win and then the fortunes change. it causes people to have no confidence in the process. >> sean: i don't have confidence in a lot of these states. do you agree with me? >> what i am seeing in wisconsin and pennsylvania is troubling, sean. >> sean: troubling? this is the united states of america. i think we are capable if we want to fix this, we can get this right and learn from florida. good job, governor. when we come back dan bongino and ari fleischer straight ahead. to live with schizophrenia? i am a good parent. jared? i'm hearing the most awful things, people shouting at me. it's ok. when you live with schizophrenia like us, it can feel like you're livin

and eric trump are saying, yeah, let's keep going. obviously, i guess donny jr. ambitions of taking over the gop leadership. sees this as his future. it doesn't seem like anyone is running the trump corporation. i don't know if there's not any work to be had. but they certainly seem to have a lot of time to be focused on -- on this issue. how do you think this plays out? i mean, do you think, at some point, he -- do you think he even attends the inauguration? do you think, at some point, he actually starts to release funds and allow there to be a transition? because, you know, people's lives are hanging in the balance on how effective -- the effectiveness of the vaccines and getting them circulated. and, you know, people in hospitals right now. >> yeah. as for my cousins, they're very well aware that they depend on -- that everything comes from their father. they depend on him, entirely. so, they're going to do whatever they need to do to keep themselves in his good graces, no matter how bad it is for everybody else. so, you know, in my -- what i feel, at this poi

and eric trump, where they have been much more aggressive, much more gung-ho. they want an aggressive fight. they want to do everything they can to change the outcome of this election. they still believe there is hope to do that. and so you're getting these competing, you know, suggestions to the president, but it is important to point out, jake, that ivanka trump is someone that the president, as we know, relies on heavily, on a myriad of topics as he has been president because she's also one of his only children -- his only child, i should say in the west wing acting as an adviser. we do know that behind the scenes, jake, he also has come around to the idea that he has lost this. even though we don't think he's going to concede, there's a lot of acceptance figuring out a way for this to all work, jake. >> if ivanka and jared are focused on allowing the president to save face and providing him an off-ramp to lose with some dignity, it's a late for that. that ship has sailed. the question is how much less dignity can he leave with? do you have any sense of why

eric trump said, we are thrilled to have won pennsylvania with 80% of the vote in and up almost 400,000 votes. you ask why do we care about the rest of the votes? because it is about the integrity of this election. and every vote is mayor giuliani said, in every state, must be counted fairly. we have a video of it that we will release to you. they have put up what looks like a police barricade all the way around the perimeter, and they are keeping our poll watchers back approximately 30 feet, at least 30 feet, you can judge for yourself. they would not let them look any further. there is a gentleman there who is an assistant to a city commissioner, and he is wearing a badge the size of a baseball. as far as i know, he is not a sworn law enforcement officer. so it looks like intimidation to me. with a police barricade and a man wearing a huge badge around his neck. he told them he cannot come closer. he said the reason was because they cannot interfere with the process, and something about covid. we all know it is cold, you have to stay six feet apart. our poll watchers have no problem s

we've seen eric trump and donald trump jr. pushing the president even though they've heard this is the most secure election in american history and no votes were changed. there is a split, but ultimately it is not, you know, this influence that donald trump jr. is going to be the soul reason the president keeps this up. while they're saying what the president wants to hear, they're waiting on him to publicly come to terms with reality as well because until he does they can't. >> kaitlan collins, david axelrod, thanks both for being with us. >>> so by the time joe biden takes office we could see double the number of daily coronavirus infections, another 100,000 deaths, that's by january 20th according to a key model often cited by the u.s. government and that's a low end estimate. joining us now cnn chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta. this is the imhe model, sanjay, 220,000 deaths by mid-january and 440,000 deaths by the beginning of march. what should bother people even more by the shocking numbers is this is the low

frustration is probably the word of the day possibly the word of the week in the trump campaign, eric trumpdy giuliani, pam bondi wrapped up a press aconference at the airport shot while ago in which they express their frustration and what's happening in philadelphia and in pennsylvania and made allegations, made their case as to why the vote counting should stop altogether at least temporarily a couple of allegations i wrote down, there is not enough transparency in the vote counting that perhaps they have video that shows issues like their observers, republican observers that are supposed to be watching the ballots counted somehow being kept about 30 feet away from the ballots, their observers cannot see anything they're having to use binoculars in the camp is made allegations of intimidation tactics being used against their observers, here is rudy giuliani a short while ago. >> we went before a democrat judge, no need to tell you the result in philadelphia for democrat judge, obviously a political hack who does not know the meaning of the word observed, observe means to be able to look,

and eric trump who have been vocal in terms of urging the president and the allies to continue to contest the results, and the legal results. both don jr. and eric trump have said that they believe that the election is stolen from the president, and they should continue to pursue the legal challenges as well adds continuing to urcontinu continue -- ads well as urging allies and senators the and governors to challenge the outcome of the election, but so far the president and others have been making a lot of noise about the invalid returns of the election, by they have presented almost no concrete evidence. and so joe biden by a popular vote, and commanding lead in the electoral college, he is the president-elect, and sworn in as the 46th president of the united states in january. >> and any type of legal routes that the president and his team might be taking? is there much to be taked as far as details that are revealed and what wrongdoings there may have been in the counting of the votes? >> yeah, look. it is unclear what kind of actual evidence that was gived by rudy giuliani who said tw

mark meadows i'm told is one of those leading voices and eric trump and don junior that they have been very vocal in terms of articling for continuing to fight and contest the results, that eric trump has told people close to the president in recent days that he believes this election was stolen from the president, and what is very clear is that is where the president is right now. he's refusing to concede, continuing to say he's going to fight there this the courts. >> besides listening to that chorus from hi sons, what is the president doing today? >> reporter: he's exactly where he was yesterday, at his golf course in virginia. the president was caught golfing there by our photographer. he's also tweeting once again. he was mostly tweeting other folks this morning making the case that, again, baseless case, no evidence provided so far this is a fraudulent election and tweeting recently, why is it that the media gets to call this election, insisting he's going to clearly continue to fight this. fred? >> thank you, jeremy diamond, at the white house. >>> at least one prominent republi

as eric trump said, we are thrilled to have won pennsylvania with 87% of the vote and we are up most 400,000 votes. why do we care about the rest of the votes? because it is about the integrity of the election. every vote in every state must be counted fairly. what we've seen -- we have a video of it that we will release to you. they put up a police barricade all the way around the perimeter. they are keeping our poll watchers back approximately 30 feet, at least 30 feet. you can judge for yourselves. they would not let them look any further. there's a gentleman there who is an assistant to a city commissioner and he's wearing a badge the size of a baseball. as far as i know, he is not a sworn law enforcement officer. it looks like intimidation to me with a police barricade and a man wearing a huge badge around his neck. he told them they can't come any closer. he said the reason was because of -- they can't interfere with the process. something about covid. we all know at the polls, you have to stay six feet apart. our poll watchers have no problems staying six feet away, yet they w

and eric trump saying let's keep going. i guess donny jr. has ambition to take over the gop and sees this as his future. it does not seem like anyone is running the trump's corporation. they seem to have a lot of time to be focused on this issue. how do you think this plays out? do you think at some point he attends the inauguration or actually starts to release funds and allow there to be a transition? people's lives are hanging on the ballots of how effective and effectiveness of the vaccines and getting them circulated and people in the hospitals right now. >> as for my cousins, they are aware that they depend on everything comes from their father. they depend on him entirely. they're going to entire whatever they do to keep himself in his good gracious. what i feel at this point is we need to ignore these people. we need to place all of the pressure, on republican leadership. the longer this goes on, the more dangerous it is in terms of our national security. who knows what's going on behind the scenes? donal donald is a desperate man. he

and eric trump.'ve been told both of them have been encouraging other republicans, republican governors, republican senators and allies of the president here in washington to continue to fight the outcome of this election. eric trump, i've been told, has told allies in washington in recent days that he believes that this election is being stolen from the president and that they are both advising the president to continue to fight this out. we have seen in the president's statements that this is exactly what he is doing at this point. the question is, once those legal avenues are exhausted, what will the president do and will we see the president at some point accept and send a message to his millions of supporters around the country that joe biden is the duly elected 46th president of the united states. >> thank you. keep us posted. joining us is democratic representative and majority whip james clyburn of south carolina. thank you for being with us. >> thank you very much for having me. >> congressm

the president is way ahead as eric trump recently said, more than 400,000 votes.t mailed everybody a ballot, and we're looking at philadelphia. it's interesting whew those aren't counted yet. are they waiting to see how many extra votes they need before they bring that forward? the president won pennsylvania, he's going to win arizona, and he's going to get another four years because he earned it. lou: it's -- we look around the country, there are five states, a sixth state, georgia, in which a democratic stronghold, fulton county, georgia, is having a terrible time because of a broken water pipe, for crying out loud, that has absolutely nothing to do with the ballots, and they just stopped counting, just stopped. >> yeah. lou: and we look at five democratic states. those are the democrat-run states. all -- is it coincidental that there are five democratic states that don't know how to count and how to i move ballots forward and the law and the rules surrounding the prerogatives of the posing party? that seems to be the case. but the obvious big majority of states

dangerous paths by the president of the united states, and yet -- and yet -- sons, donald trump, jr., eric trump, pushing the president to aggressively fight to the end. like their father, they're claiming without evidence that the outcome of the election is rigged. no evidence. no evidence. trump's daughter, ivanka and her husband jared kushner, both senior trump aides, said to be concerned that his refusal to concede could damage his legacy and his business, that it could do that going forward. so, they're worried. they're very concerned, very concerned, very concerned. wonder what they're concerned about. the legacy or the business? you want to know what passes for standing up for reality for republicans in d.c. these days? senators lindsey graham, chuck grassley and john thune saying that biden should receive the intel briefings. other senators joining them. >> at this point, just as a matter of protecting our nation's interests, i do think that both the president and his competition here, the vice president biden, should have access to those classified reports. >> we should be in the same p

i'm told that eric trump was telling some republicans recently that he believes that democrats have stolen this election from his father. of course, there is no basis for that. ultimately, that is the point, is that the trump campaign and the president are making these allegations, wild claims about widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election, but they have yet to put forward any substantial concrete evidence to actually prove that point. nonetheless, they are moving forward with these legal challenges in this coming week. we will just have to see how long that goes on because so far every legal challenge that the trump campaign has put forward, just about every legal challenge, has gone absolutely nowhere. >> jeremy diamond, thank you. >>> joining us now is former independent senator from connecticut joe lieberman. in 200 0 he was on the ticket with al gore when gore conceded the race to george bush. you wrote recently for the "wall street journal" that al gore taught you importance of accepting an adverse outcome for the good of the country. we know now there's the split in the president

eric trump has tweeted about it, although i am being told he has leted his tweet expressi frustrationkatty: we had mick mulvaney on the bbc saying that he thinks even if donald trump loses, he's not leaving politics and could well run again. is that how you see things? n: i think you never say never with donald trumplo there are of ifs that have to be gone through. he would be 78 and running for the presidency. the other thing i keep hearing is there will be some kind of tv netwk set up, tru tv, which would be a f platfor his ideas and viewpoint. you can see h frustration with fox tv. what you have just said and mick mulvaney, it has happened before. katty: is there, do you think, a realization in the trump campab t what trump's son has been saying -- is it a realization that ts is slipping away from the president? jon: i think if they were confident that the votes were going to stack up in their favor, they would be saying what joe biden is saying. at the counting continue. we are confident we are going to win. they are clearly not confident they are going to win. that is why you a s

( cheering ) still, the trump campaign is going to court to challenge the validity of the vote in pe

but eric trump's tweet is still there. is this message of the democrats stealing the election resonating with mr trump's supporters online? it's gone incredible viral online. we are seeing repeated unsubstantiated or false claims about come as you say, ballot burning, ballot dumping, suggesting that trump voters were asked to use certain bits of stationery like sharpies to fill in their ballot form so that those ballots would then not be counted. all kinds of different conspiracies and disinformation as well as just unsubstantiated claims, and that's not a surprise when those same claims have been echoed by president trump on his twitter feed and videos like this have been by eric trump. in some ways though, it's not that surprising, especially for someone like me who has spent months investigating viral disinformation about the selection. this information about voting, particularly postal voting has been spread on social media for months 110w. spread on social media for months now. it was first shared by trump backin now.

eric trump claimed there was, quote, rampant corruption in philadelphia and in pennsylvania.liani says there was strong anti-democratic activity, as he put it. the campaign said these ballots need to be found. but these ballots are not lost. in fact, they are in the building behind me, in a room being counted. the county is live streaming this. have let the media in. i have been in the room. it is closely guarded. the ballots are there, they are being processed but the filed a lawsuit today -- the trump campaign filed a lawsuit today, the biden campaign received it 20 minutes ago, in which the trump campaign is seeking to intervene in the supreme court decision to try to halt ballots being counted right now. that is what the trump campaign is trying to do. i spoke with a biden campaign attorney who said, we are prepared. we know this is what they are going to try to do and we will be ready. judy: dan bush right there. i was looking at the livestream of the vote counting in pennsylvania yesterday so we know that has been taking place. thank you, dan. separately, our william br

his son eric trump and rudy giuliani had a press conference yesterday, and here's what they had to say. >> this is fraud this is absolute fraud we're going to win pennsylvania, but they're going to try to cheat us out of it because they know it's their only path to victory. >> it was totally illegitimate this is a concerted effort of the crooks that run the democrat party. this is beyond anything i've ever seen before. >> and i would note there is no evidence yet of any fraud or illegal actions taken by anyone despite those comments, the president for his part saying our lawyers have asked for, quote, meaningful access, but what good does that do the damage has already been done to tin ted grit of our system and to the presidential election itself this is what should be discussed. aside from the legal challenges going on and as far as the way the campaign is feeling about the actual votes that are being tallied, they're encouraged by some numbers they've seen come out of arizona overnight that they think is breaking in the president's direction. pennsylvania seems to be an uphill fight

and we are awe waiting that trump news conference, eric and lara trump supposed lu going to speak innutes, that's what west virginia heard, in philadelphia. so we will take that as soon as they appear before the cameras. we've got 26 minutes before the closing bell rings. dow up 446, the nasdaq having a significant lu strong day, up 3.7% or 412 points. you're watching "the claman countdown," you are in the right place for your money. ♪ - to have gold coins in my possession, it's putting that hard asset as a insurance, you might say against the paper dollar. that's why i bought gold. it's not for my insurance but it's for my daughters and the grandchildren's insurance that i felt like that generational aspect of passing down gold is securing them a future. of course nothing is without risk and that being said, i feel that by diversifying with precious metals that i'm covering my basis. it's a hard asset, you can turn it back into cash whereas keeping a lot of cash in your bank account, can really almost end up being nothing. you have these dollars over here, sitting in a bank drawing,

along with laura trump, eric trump's wife and eric himself. and tiffany trump, the president's youngest daughter has not been as politically involved but she shows up from time to time. donald trump, jr. has been mentioned as a possible candidate himself whether he runs for senate in a state with the president has a home or run for mayor of new york city. at this point he seems to be most interested in running the republican national committee. he will have some competition though. that is not something his father can just install him. the republican national committee is full of committee members who will make the decision. many of them love the trump family and love president trump. it would not be shocking to see him take over in a sense. but incumbent presidents have ultimate sway over the party's committee. when they are gone, that falls away and can go to different people on the committee the jockey to power. maybe donald trump, jr. ends up on the republican national committee himself. it seems more to be an aspiration and ambition than s
