but you now have the wall street journal jumping on this, this is not just the new york times or the shington post. the wall street journal, which has been very fair to the president and some critics might say a little too open-minded when it comes to president trump's claims, is also reporting this story and the president does have a record of saying oh, i was just kidding when i said that when it really is quite apparent that when he said it on video in many cases he wasn't kidding. that's a convenient sort of behavior here. but i think that the press would very likely try and say that it's a fancy way of claiming that his effort to hold on is out there but the two dollar version of that is that he is going to continue to look at different avenues until the last clear chance where marine one is waiting to take him away from the white hour. howie: the president has been tweeting up a blizzard on this question. for example, democrats would never put up with a presidential election stolen by the republicans, and mcconnell and republican senators have to get tougher or you won't have a
