Voter Fraud ?
President Donald Trump repeats assertion that he has won the election, although votes are still being counted
The president complains of “tremendous corruption and fraud in the mail-in ballots", without giving any evidence for his claim
President Trump says that "ultimately I feel that judges will have to rule" on the result
Is there any evidence of electoral misconduct ?

The man is insane. What will happen, is that the despicable lickspittle enablers in the Republican party that have thus far supported him for their own purposes will start to back off like rats fleeing a sinking ship.
He will be left surrounded by his family and a bunch of lawyers brandishing a huge bill.

// If there were fraud, would Biden not have won a lot more States and by a bigger margin? //
No Corby, that would be too obvious and easy. These evil Democrat fraudsters are incredibly cunning, and have magically conjoured up a situation where the vote is incredibly narrow and liable to be overturned by lawsuits. If the lawsuits fail because of a technicality such as zero evidence, that will just prove that fraud was there all along.

I've been following this, off and on, all day on CNN and what is becoming increasingly prevalent is the number of respected American politicians and journalists who are expressing that their president is questioning the fundamental process of democracy on which their country is based, and written into the Bill of Rights, specifically that every citizen has the right to vote and that every vote is equal.
I have no doubt that he will huff and puff for a few days until the new president's men "persuade" him that it really would be in his best interests to disappear for a while.
With the very latest numbers putting the split as 264-214 in Biden's favour and the increasingly likelihood that Biden has taken Nevada whose 6 electoral college points will push him over the line, what should be Trump's final night as president is all but a done deal:

Fun fact: the Electoral College isn't obliged to vote according to what the people say, but only according to how the States instruct them.
Second fun fact: if all of this crap makes it to SCOTUS then three of the judges will have been appointed by Trump, including one that was, not at all coincidentally, rushed through before the election.
In practice, neither of these will (or should) matter much -- I don't expect SCOTUS to rule that Trump is still President in 2021, and I don't expect Electoral College shenanigans. But I *do* expect Trump to try everything, short of accepting reality, in the next couple of months.

Trumps latest address...and his first appearance since Tuesday night. Scroll down for the full text. It's rather rambling to say the least...

In any other setting, this posturing would be only about Trump's image. He has made winning so key to his identity that he can't be seen to lose. So the only way he's allowed to lose is if his opponents cheat, and lie, and play games with the system (all while Trump tries the same, of course).
When cultivating his image takes the country's democratic system with it, though, it's unacceptable. It should be condemned by everybody -- but, of course, it won't be. Too many people have tied themselves to the Trump bandwagon, and either refuse to see the obvious, or refuse to ever condemn it, because to do so would be to admit culpability.
