What is US President Donald Trump doing on election night?
According to the New York Times, he changed his plans at short notice.
There are worrying assumptions from those around him.
The forecasts for the
2020
US election
*
do not look good for
Donald Trump
*
- but it could be tight.
Many are looking at what the current
US President
* will
be doing on the evening of the election: What will he
tweet
, who will be spending the evening with?
Will there even be a scandal?
Here you will find our ticker for the
current status of the US election 2020
.
Washington (USA)
-
Donald Trump
*
will definitely not do
one thing
on the day of the 2020 US election: vote.
The incumbent
US President
*
has already cast his vote.
And then immediately announced: "I voted for a guy named Trump."
It should be exciting to see what
Trump
will do on the evening of the election, as he is very emotional and extremely spontaneous.
The New York Times quotes people who are supposed to be close to Trump but want to remain anonymous with extreme fears: Some assume that he may simply refuse to accept defeat.
And even worse: that there is no one in his environment who can stand up to him.
US election 2020: Trump's last election night ended with a party
In the
2016 US election
,
Trump
had
left it open in advance whether he would recognize the result.
Even then, he was accused that the election could be manipulated by incorrectly counting the votes.
And his
election evening
ran accordingly
: he was repeatedly active on
when irregularities became known - and heated up his followers.
The
election party Trumps
in 2016 took place at the
Hilton Hotel in New York
instead.
According to observers, the invited guests should not have been invited by the host, but had to pay for their drinks themselves.
As is well known, during the night the party became - surprisingly for everyone - the winner's party for the new
US President
*.
US election 2020: Trump changes his plans for election night 2020 at short notice
According to the New York Times, Trump changed his plans for
election night 2020
at short notice.
Contrary to what was originally planned, he no longer wants to celebrate in one of his hotels with supporters, but rather to stay in the
White House
.
The
White House
*
did not comment on why the plans had changed.
Donald Trump
in private:
Does
Trump
actually plan not to acknowledge his defeat - should it occur?
Not only people from his environment, but also international
political experts
do not want to rule out this scenario.
But
there is another possibility
for the
election evening
itself: Because the
counting of votes
can take a long time, no result could be determined on November 3rd.
Trump also
rejects this scenario
:
This decision is CRAZY and so bad for our country.
Can you imagine what will happen during that nine day period.
The Election should END on November 3rd.
