Trump claims Win on Election Night based on Many Votes, takes Biden by Surprize, Warns of Fraud

*Strasboug/Angelo Marcopolo/PARTLY UPDATED)- Embattled US President Don Trump's Sudden Move to Claim Win OverNight, at Crucial 2020 US Elections, pointing at Many Key Votes' Results, while Also Warning against Risks of incoming Fraud, apparently took Former Vice-President Joe Biden's Camp, Initialy by Surprize, so that Responses either Delayed, looked Spasmodic, or Self-Betrayed some Fishy Concrete Situations, to Start with :
In Fact, the Most Surprizing Result of these 2020 USA Elections is that, Despite an UnPrecedented Sabotage of his Presidential Work by 3 Years-Long "Impeachment" Threats with Bogus Claims ; Systematicaly Hostile and Often Slandering Establishment's Medias, (most of which Forgot Press Deontlogy); Oppressive "Social Networks" at the Internet, Notoriously Censoring Trump-Friendly Citizens and/or Politicians, (including Himself); a Scandalously UnFair and Discriminatory Pre-Electoral Context, (particularly on the Few Public Debates with Biden, who Got much More Free Prime TV Time and far Less Interruptions by Hostile "Moderators", etc: See http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/mediadiscriminatetrumpbidendebates.html); even an Infection by the Deadly Virus, (from UnKnown yet Source) in the Middle of the Electoral Campaign, (from which he Recuperated in Record-Time, Aged 73); and Contrary to Fake, but Persistent Establishment's Polls which All (Except from those Excluded from Mainstream RePublication) Claimed that he would Lose, with - 10% Less (sic !), in front of Biden, instead of the current 50 -50%, approximatively ; (etc),
Nevertheless, President Trump Managed to Stimulate the Biggest Ever Popular Participation in USA's Elections, and Succeeded to Keep a Conservative Majority in the Senate, to Strengthen Further Conservatives in the House, and, Most of all, to Gain so Many Votes and/or States himself, that he Could, Now, Revendicate a Win (on Votes and/or Electors) at this Crucial US Presidential Election of 2020 !
=> In Consequence, the Surprize by Trump's OverNight substantial Statements and Facts, seems to have Shocked the Dems, whose Team Started to React Only Next Morning, (and that, in an Obviously too Nervous way), with Biden reacting Even Later, towards Midday, InCompletely, and Even by Leaking some, apparently, Embarassing, for his Side, Details... (See Infra)...
- However, Nonobstant a Wider Understanding, involving also Many Medias, to Avoid, as a matter of Principle, any Precisious, Too Early and/or UnSubstantiated Claims about "Winning" the Race, etc., it's Biden, First, who almost Broke that Deal, with an "Electoral Night" Video-Statement : - "We (Dems) are in track to Win !", he Boasted, (But withOut giving any substantial Data to try to prove it, at all).
- On the Contrary, When, Afterwards, OverNight, in ..."The Latest Press Conference I Ever had", as he significantly pointed out, President Trump spoke about "Phenomenal Results", "Success", etc., adding that, "Frankly, We Did Win this Election !", or, rather, -"We Will Win it, and, as far as I'm concerned, We have Already Won it !", this was said Only After having Presented, Earlier, Many relevant Facts as Proof, (See Infra)...
>>> Indeed, - "First of all, "The Citizens of this Country have come out in such Record Numbers, this is something that, Frankly, there has been Nothing like that...", Trump stressed from the outset.
- Particularly in order "To Support our Incredible Movement, Even in States where it wasN't Expected to", he observed.
- - F. ex., "in Florida, we are Winning by a Lot. (Applaud).
- "We Won the Great State of Ohio, we Won Texas, by +700.000 Votes (difference), = (more Applaud), and They (Establishment's Medias) do Not Include it Even in the Tabulations"...
- "We Won Georgia : We are Up by +2,5% and +17.000 Votes, and Only 7% Left. They'll Never Catch us"..., he estimated.
- "Likewise, we've Clearly Won North Carolina : (Applauded), We are Up +1,4% and 77.000 Votes, with Only, Approximately, 5% Left. They Can't Catch us"....
- "We have Also, if you look, a lot of Life in Arizona, and somebody said that it will be a Victory, and this Might be, it's Possible, there are a Lot of Votes there that We Can Get, Because Now it comes into what they wall "Trump Territory", or whatever you call it, this is Friendly Counties, and that Could be OK". .... However, "We doN't even Need it, it's just a State that We Could have, and that would be Nice. There is a Good Possibility, and, indeed, SInce I Saw it First, the Numbers are Changing, just in a Small amount of Hours. So, We Want that, Obviously, to Stay in Play", he Soberly conluded.
+ "But, Most Impôrtantly, We are Winning Pennsylvania (i.e. a currently "Socialist/Liberal" State), by a Tremendous Amount of Votes, (very much Applauded). We are at +690.000 Votes (More) ! This is Not even "Close".... With 64% of the Vote in, it's gonna be Almost Impossible to Catch... (for Biden). And we are Coming into Good Pennsylvanian Areas, where they happen to Like Your President... So, We'll, Probably, Extend"...
+ Also, "We are Winning at Michigan : Look at the Numbers... I Said "Wow, that's a Lot ! Almost +300.000 Votes (More), and 65% of the Vote is In".
++ "And We are Winning Wisconsin" too...", he hoped.
- "We DoN't Need All of them. We Need ... Because We Won Texas... The Governor called me to Congratulate, and said : - "What's going on ? I've Never Seen something Like this !" (In Magnitude of GOP's Votes).
+++ indeed, "We Won by a +107.000 Votes (more) and 81% of the Vote (in)"
=> -"So, If you take Those 3 States, in particular - And We have All the Others, ... We had such a Big Night, if you Look at All those States that We Won ToNight, and, then, Look at the Kind of Margins with which we Won them by":
- F.ex.: (Looking at his Notes), "Florida was a Tremendous Victory : +377.000";
- "Texas as we said", (Comp. Supra.
-"Ohio, a tremendous State; I love Ohio : We Won with +8,1% by +465.O00, almost +500.000 Votes".
- "In North Carolina we Lead with +76.000 Votes, with almost Nothing Left", (etc).
=> "We were Getting Ready to Win this Election. (And), Frankly, We Did Win this Election ! (Applauded). Now, for the Good of this Nation, We Must Ensure it...", he Urged.
-----------------------------------------

>>> Because, almost at the Same Time, (i.e. OverNight, from 3 to 4 November 2020), President Trump clearly Warned, Also, of Possible Massive "Fraud", for which Attempts were, apparently, just Starting, right then, (a Fact which Could Explain that Strange Hour, Exceptionaly Chosen for
- "This is a very Big Moment". And, this is a Sad Moment. This is a very Sad Moment for me", (Because), this is a Major Fraud on Our Nation !", indeed, he Announced.
- "We (Republicans, i.e. Trump), "were Ready to get out and Celebrate something which was so Good...", (Comp. Supra). "We were getting Ready for a Big Celebration... We were Winning Everything !", (Comp. Supra).
- But, "all out of a sudden, it was Called Off.. All of a Sudden, What Happened to the Election ? It's Off... And we had all those Announcements..."
- "They (Dems, i.e. Biden) Knew that they could Not Win. So, they said..." "A very Sad Group of People is Trying to DesEnfrachise that Group of People" (who "Supported" the GOP), he Denounced. => This is a Fraud on the American Public... This is an Embarassement to our Country !"
=> - "We woN't stand for it ! (Many Applauds)... - "Let's go to Court !", Trump Called. -"I Predicted that...", he reminded. In fact, "We Want a lot to be used in a Proper Manner. So, We are going a lot at the US Supreme Court".
>>> - Because "We Want All Voting to Stop ! We doN't Want them to Find Any kind of Ballots, After 4h o'clock in the Morning, and Add them to the List !", President Trump Urged in real practice, (Speaking almost at such an Imposible Hour)...
-------------------------------
+ Biden's Team, Later-on, apparently Upset by Trumps' Earlier Announcement of his initialy Good Results and Late Fraud Warning, Nervously Slandered that as an "Absurd" and "Cynical" "Attack", "Doomed to Fail" (sic !), But, also, Unwillingly Self-Betrayed the Fact that ...he was Probably Right :
- Indeed, they had practicaly Nothing Important to Claim, at This Hour, as alleged "Good Results" for Biden, But Mainly a Speculation on"Pennsylvania" : that some Mysterious "Ballots", "Expected ... To Be Counted these Days" (i.e. Not Yet Used), were (according to their Hopes) "Due to OutNumber What Is Now", from around Tomorrow Afternoon or Evening... (Obviously, one is Wondering What Made them so Sure about their Predictions for the Future, unless...)
+ In Addition, Biden's Team practicaly Raised anOther Question Mark, when they Pompously Claimed that they Had, Already "Prepared", f.ex., "Lawyers, Papers, Staff Training", etc., in order to Face, Nowadays, probable Legal Actions from the Conservatives on this 2020 Presidential Elections' final Results, so that they were "Ready to Go in 1 Hour", as they Characteristicaly Boasted.
=> A subsequent Problem is that, during this Period AFTER the Election Day, when there are, normaly, No More Expensive Collective Meetings to organize, etc, inevitably, one Wonders Why, even Biden himself, Suddenly Felt a Pressing Need to Exceptionaly Publish 3 or 4 Written "Appeals" for ... more "Money" to be "Donated" to his Electoral Campaign's "Fund", during the 4th, 5th and 6th November 2020, [UPDATED] (going Even as far as to Publish Two [2] such Urgent Appeals for Money in just 1 Day : Nov. 5, and at the Same Morning !)...
>>> Biden Himself does Not give Any clear Explanation for those Repeated Strange Moves for More Funds, After the Election Day, Urgently. But he, Curiously, Claims, at least, that Money would be Needed, even Nowadays, for "Counting" and/or Re-Counting More Ballots... + Even More Strange : in his Latest such "Tweet" Asking for Funds, Biden abuses of an UnHeard of Claim : - Now he sayq that Money would have, Suddenly, become Urgently Needed, Even Long After the Election Day, Because ..."DEMOCRACY is SOMETIMES ...MESSY" (sic !)...
=> What does Biden Mean with that Strange Claim ? What could be "Messy", with a Sudden and Repeated Need of more and more Money, just After a Crucial Election, When he is Focused on "Finding" more and more Late "Ballots" (of Dubious Legality) to "Count" in order to "OutNumber" Trump's UnExpected Initial Lead on Popular Votes ? (Comp. Supra)... Do, Perhaps, such "Findings" ...COST, Now, More than Usual ?...
-- By the way, it's also a Fact that Rep. Senator Graham, who tried, Notoriously, to Help Trump go to the Federal Supreme Court against Fraud in these 2020 US Elections, reportedly Denounced that, currently "Socialist/Liberal"-controlled "Pennsylvania is More CORRUPTED than a SNAKE !" (sic)...
+ And "Socialist/Liberal" former Governor of Illinois (a Neighbour of PA), Blagojevich, (Notoriously convicted for the Scandal of ...Selling Obama's former Senate Constituency there to a New Candidate), when he was Nowadays asked Whether a "Socialist/Liberal" State like Pennsylvania (where he comes from) might, eventualy, Rigg such an Election, reportedly Replied that it was done Often, OverNight, and - It's as if you are Wondering : - <<Is, Pope, a Catholic ?>>...
------------------------------------
Meanwhile, it's Also at Nearby Michigan (Comp. Supra) that Similar (even if Not Identical) Questions, mutatis-mutandis, about Suspicious "Late" Ballots Suddenly Changing the Initial Course of an Election, were Raised Nowadays :
- Its very Controversial "Socialist/Liberal" Governor reportedly Warned some Establishment's Medias that the Decisive Moment for the Votes in Michigan was Due to Occur Not on the Election-Day of Nov. 3, But, Curiously, Onky during the Next Day, Nov. 4, as Late as around Midday...

=> Indeed, Also Biden himself, Observed, Next Day, that his Voters were, Suddenly, "Growing", (After a Nov. 3 Initial Lead by Trump ; Comp. Supra). In fact, "Michingan" has Not Yet, But "Will Complete its Votes Soon", he Curiously Added, on Nov. 4, Midday, (withOut Explaining Why)... Biden went, Even, as Far as to Suggest that this Might Take Longer, Perhaps Extending Also towards Nov. 5 : - "May be, as Early as the Day" (of Nov. 4), or May be Not, he Added.
-------------------------------------------
>>> At any case, one of the Most Fishy Cases, seems to really be that of "Pennsylvania", (Comp. Supra) :
- "I Feel very Good about Pennsylvania", Biden said at his 1st Reaction After the Voing Day, on Nov. 4. - Because ..."All (sic !) the Ballots Remaining to be Counted, were Cast by Mail !", (I.e. the Most Suspected for Fraud, and Denounced by the Conservatives, Already Long Before the Election Starts), he Revealed ...
+ "And We (Dems) are Winning, in the Votes by Mail, with a 78% Margin !" there, Biden boasted.
=> Among the main Obvious Critical Questions Raised, are :
- How did Biden Know that this Late "Rise" was going to be Extended throughout All those "Mail Votes" ?
- And, How did he Know, (in Advance), that, Suddenly, Dems might, Perhaps, Start to have a So Extra-Ordinary Huge : Precisely "+78% Margin", at All those Late Mail Votes in PA, (i.e. something Around 80% - 20%) ?!...
>>> After the American People, (Surprisingly Overcoming Establishent Medias' Slandering, Web Censorship, an UnFair Electoral Process, Fake "Polls", etc), Gave an UnExpected Initial Lead to Trump, (Comp. Gacts Supra), did Biden's Dems OverReact by Late Fraud ?

Benedict's "Source" to revitalize Europe : - "The World needs Hope", Pope says, calling to relaunch E.U. via Human Rights !
Paris - Lourdes - Strasbourg : 12 - 17 September 2008.
The vital need to re-launch Europe can be succesfully met by defending fundamental Human Rights of the People, said Pope Benedict XVI in his 1st speech in France, at his meeting with President Nicolas Sarkozy, who currently chairs the EU.
Sarkozy replied by welcoming Christian and other religions' contribution to indispensable Public Debates on crucial issues which affect Human Dignity, Europe, even Humankind, as BioGenetics.
- "When Europeans will see and personally experience that the inalienable Rights of the Human Person .., those of their free Education, their Family life, their Work, ..their Religious Rights, ..are respected and promoted, then, these Europeans will fully understand the greatness of the European construction and will be actively involved in it", Benedict XVI stressed.

- "It's important that during France's EU Presidency, there is, indeed, a desire for the Church to contribute to protect Human Person's integrity, and I think that there is also a growing Conscience, beyond any polemics, to defend Human Rights, and, thus, contribute to ensure respect for Human Dignity", added to "EuroFora" the Pope's Spokesman, Vatican's Press Director Federico Lombardi.
- "Nobody really told us here that Lisbon Treaty was good for this or that reason to the People. They only told us that we "had" to ratify it, and tried to scare us, but failed", said 2 Irish pilgrims to "EuroFora", after 2 Majority Abstentions in 1999 and 2004 EU Elections and 3 "NO" to Referenda in France and the Netherlands in 2005, followed by the Irish "No" in 2008, during a Decade of EU Crisis since the controversial Turkey EU- bid (1999-2008).
More than .."224 cases of Murders, Torture, "Disappearancies" or Destructions" by "agents of Turkish Security forces", where all those responsible for so heavy Crimes still remain scandalously unpunished, despite regular condemnations of Ankara by Strasbourg''s European Court of Human Rights from 1996 to 2008, were examined the same week by CoE's Ministers, who decided to launch a fresh call "urging" the Turkish Authorities to end this dangerous "virtual Impunity" of criminals, without comparison to European countries.
- "Why not Ukraine, instead of Turkey ?", asked EuroFora a Journalist from "Kiev : the city where it's enough to cross the streets in order to realize that it's a European town", as Sarkozy recently said, before solemnly declaring this week, together with Ukranian President Jushenko and EU Commission's chair Baroso, EU's "recognition that Ukraine is a fully European Country, linked to Europe by culture and History".

Europe's "Christian roots" and Values, with "openess and mutual respect" to other cultures and beliefs, were highlighted by Sarkozy in harmony with Benedict XVI.
The Human person should be protected "from his inception until his natural death", added the Pope, faithful to BioEthic principles defended by his predecessor and collaborator, John Paul II, of topical importance in France, Europe and the World today, as Sarkozy announced :
- "Fast and important progres in Genetic Science and procreation raise delicate BioEthical Questions to our Democracies", which "involve our view of Humans and Life, and can lead to Social Mutations. That's why they cannot remain only a business of experts", hestressed.
- "It's Politician's responsibility to set a proper framework for such Public Debates", as "France will do on BioEthics in 2009". "Religious and Philosophic traditions must take part, with their ideas and centuries' long experience : A positive Laicity is an open invitation to Dialogue", he said.
- "France engaged in Europe at another Debate on how to make Financial Capitalism more moral", and the "Social doctrine of the Church fits well what is at stake in modern Globalized Economy"
- "But, a "Real Dialogue is not for an elite of a Globalized world : It penetrates deep into the People : That's why Churches should actively participate : .. It's bringing New Oxygen to Public Debates", stressed Sarkozy.
- "Democracy must not be cut off Reason", which is "compatible with Faith", thanks to "the meeting between Christianism and Greek philosophy ", he added, referring to Pope's views. "It means to advance with logic arguments, search what's best and respect common principles of thinking :... It's an everyday need for Public Administration and the Political Debate", he added.
----------------------------
Pope Benedict's 1st visit to France looked like the start of a brillant, manifold demonstration that this was well-founded and could become true in the lives of the People : After its Theoretical foundations unfolded at a "speech to the world of Culture", inaugurating Bernadins' cultural centre, and its dogmatic instrument shaped at an address to the Clergy in the Historic Notre Dame' Cathedral, he started to resolutely reach out to the People :

The move went upwards like Bach's music : Begining with a call to more than fifteen thousand enthousiastic Youngsters gathered at Notre Dame's parvis with overnight celebrations, it gained strength in an impressive open-air Mass at Paris'central Invalides'area facing Alexander III's bridge, attended by more than 150.000 people, French Prime Minister Fillon, many Ministers, Foreign Ambassadors, etc, and culminated in a series of pan-European Mega-meetings at Lourdes 150th anniversary, together with all French Bishops, EU Commission's vice-Chairman Barrot, and some 200.000 enthousiastic People from all over Europe and beyond : After a Sea of Lights astonishingly braved Saturday Night's rain, an open-air mass at riverside fields among Pyrenees' Mountains Sunday Morning, was followed on Monday by a Sea of "Compassion" to those facing Health or Life threats, surrounded by an endless gathering of People, whose gigantic dimensions obviously surprised the organisers..
Meanwhile, Benedict had the occasion to speak to the French Priests at Notre Dame of Paris, and with the Bishops at Lourdes, where they prepare a crucial November plenary meeting, due to take important decisions on imminent EU debates and choices about Europe's identity, BioEthics, etc.
-------
- "A new way of thinking about Laicity has become necessary", agreed the Pope with President Sarkozy at Elysee. While keeping the "distinction between Politics and Religion, to guarantee Citizens' Liberty", "religion is important for shaping Consciousness and contributing, together with others, to create a basic Ethical Consensus in society".
- "Searching Essential realities", (as "God" for christians), needs "Speech : "Logos" in greek, i.e. Reason", "able to shape a Community","with creative work transforming Human History". But "Dialogue" is instrumental for "Reason", because it's the way to "search" for Truth", in "Liberty", according to Greek Platonic Philosophy, with Socrates' dialectics. "Reason" implies "Spirit and Liberty", hence the polyphonic "Music" of "Dialogue", in a responsible, "well balanced" way, to avoid "destruction".
Starting with a "Dialogue between christians and intellectual or artistic movements" highlighted at Bernardins' Cultural Center. with former Presidents Chirac and Giscard d'Estain, UNESCO's chair Anastassopoulos, etc., as well as representatives of Muslim Communities, (including a separate Turkish), after contacts with Jews at Vatican's Embassy, the Pope turned towards the People :

-------------------
To French Priests : "Church built on the rock" !
---------------------

- Speaking to thousands of French Priests at Notre Dame's Cathedral, Benedict highlighted a solid "Church built on the Rock" of conscious and active persons, transmitting "a lively, energetic and sharp" "God's Speech, actively working on Human History".

"Praying together" with "representatives of Christian Churches and ecclesiastic communities", (as Orthodoxes, Armenians, Protestants, etc), he called "to reinforce the Unity of the church", against "any form of Division", around Holy Spirit', "the Word","Christ's Justice", and "Love" to fellow- humans : Essentials which "resume all holy scripts", as he said.

-----------------------
To Young People : "New Horizons"
------------------------
To some 15.000 enthousiastic Young People at Notre Dame's parvis, along Seine's river, Benedict spoke about "the Energy of the Holy Spirit" and "the Mystery of the Cross" : - "The Holy Spirit opens New Horizons to Human Intelligence .. and makes it conscious of the real greatness of Christ's sacrifice, dying and resurecting for World's life".

Some "may slander you as crazy, laugh at you, or even persecute you. But, "the Holy Cross is a symbol of God's love", and "givesmoral strength" : "Witness of People's pains, it's at the same time, a precious, unique expression of their Hopes", he told them at Paris' dawn.

----------------------------------
Invalides' plateau : "People chosen to become God's friends"
---------------------------------------
At the 1st open-air Mass in Paris' center area of Invalides, facing the Grand Palais, along the river Seine, during an impressive gathering of more than 150.000, French Prime Minister Fillon, Ministers Alliot-Marie, Bachelot, Dati, Jouyet, Assembly's President Accoyer, Senate's Chair Poncelet, former 1st Lady Bernadette Chirac, former Prime Minister Raffarin, many foreign Ambassadors, and other political personalities were present. (While earlier, from the Socialist opposition, Paris' Mayor Delanoye, artist Robert Hussein a.o. assisted at the Elysee meeting).




But the "Entry Song" focused on the "People chosen to become God's Friends". The September 11 mass was Dedicated to "Saint Chrysostomus, that great priest of Constantinople", with his "wonderful eloquence and great courage to face challenges", who "made out of despaired and godless people, a people of brothers", opening a possibility to "become all one complete entity", as Pope Benedict reminded.
- "Reason never enters in real contradiction with Faith", stressed Pope Benedict, who prepared his speeches for France during a short Summer rest at Brixen/Bressanone's Seminar, whose Library honors both "Faith and Science".. - "We must use not only our Reason, but also our Faith" : "Get away from Idolatry", "cupidity", "avidity for money, power or even knowledge deviating from essential aims", and other "falses appearances". and "build your Home on the Rock", "with the force that Holy Spirit gives to those who let it act in them", he said to the People of Paris.

--------------------------------------------------
Benedict at Lourdes : - "Become Light (even) in the Dark !"
------------------------------------------------------------------
- "Our World needs Hope", stressed Pope Benedict, addressing an impressive TorchLight procession at Lourdes' sanctuaries, where a Sea of Lights held by Hundreds of Thousands of People gathered at Pyrenee's Mountains from all over Europe astonishingly kept their flames despite a heavy Rain at a windy Dark Night...
- "150 years earlier (1858 - 2008), ..here, in the cave, ... a simple young girl, Bernadette .. saw a Light". "The everyday life of her Family was, however, made of Misery, Sadness, Sickness, Misunderstandings, Rejection and Poverty... It was hard to live in Jail". Today, "we think to all Human Beings who suffer : The innocent Victims who face Violence, War, Terrorism, Hunger, Injustices, Catastrophes, Hate and Oppression, Violations of Human Dignity and of their fundamental Rights, of their Liberty to act and think. We also think to those who face Familial problems, sufferings from Unemployment, Sickness, Infirmity, Isolation, or their situation as Immigrants, without forgetting those who suffer and die for the name of Christ", he said.
- "But the Shadows of the Earth, did not hinder Sky's Light to shine : <<The Light shines in the Dark>>" ..."A Way full of Light opens in Human History even in its Darkest moments" : ..."As Night falls, Christ tels us : <<- Keep your Lamps alight !>>."Hold a Light while walking in the Night .. sums up our condition as Christians on their way : "We need light, and we are called to become Light !", Benedict stressed to People setting in motion Lights, Flags and Songs with enthousiasm.

"<<- She looked at me as a Person, who speaks to another Person>>, the poor girl had noted."Light emerges from such a Dialogue", stressed the Pope : "A small Flame called Hope, Compassion and Tenderness dwells inside those who return after being moved by Lourdes' experience". "Christ .. entrusts us with the Mission to let the Light of Charity shine : To make of our Prayers an Act of Love to our brothers and to Fraternal Charity", he concluded.
