The American people have spoken. Trump can at worst be a nasty spoiler who creates uncertainty, who makes the smooth transfer of power into something difficult. But he's lost here.

The reality is the guard rails that we spent so much time talking about early on in the Trump administration, that didn't seem to exist then have now been reinvigorated.
I think anyone who pretends they didn't see it coming is just fooling themselves. So there has to be some sort of accountability.
Barr's comments today might have been a little bit more praise worthy, if he had made them when any of these controversies were fresh, but now the issues have been exposed.
Trump's management, of course, has been a disaster. And the dishonest one at that, you know, from day one here, so nothing really should surprise us about what he said and what he's denied about saying.
We have a president who's fundamentally not committed to the rule of law. He's willing to burn things down to protect himself.
Whatever is coming down the road as Americans pulling together we can get through this and to the other side on January 20.
It was a succinct message that the Supreme Court delivered. This is a permissive appeal. The court is not required to hear it, and they clearly told the president and his allies that they were not interested in pursuing these appeals.
Doug Jones, who I worked for when he was the U.S. attorney in the northern district of Alabama during the Clinton administration, is very talented.
You don't have to be a good lawyer to understand that this bevy of cases Trump and Trump supporters have filed are not meritorious.
The flip side of these deficient lawsuits is that they never really were a compelling legal strategy. They were always a narrative strategy.
