  • Elections: The indelible legacy of Donald Trump

Donald Trump is apparently frustrated with the lack of impact of his strategy of taking the counting of votes by mail to court and has asked his legal team to find "better lawyers," according to CNN, attributing it to a person close to the President.

Analysts highlight the open contrast between the chaotic strategy followed by Trump - assisted by a cloud of lawyers close to the family - and the legal battle raised by George W. Bush in 2000, in his fight with Al Gore over the Florida counts. .

The Bush team was led by former Secretary of State James Baker: the battle was sentenced after 35 days with the ruling of the Supreme Court, which served the Republican Presidency on a platter.

Former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi are apparently at the forefront of the team of "loyalist" lawyers who have been linked to Trump for the past four years.

In internal circles, the role played by Trump's own son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has been criticized for failing to gauge in time the "pothole" of experts that would have been needed to raise the legal battle after the elections.

Trump currently has the support of Jay Sekulow, the conservative lawyer who defended him during the 'Russiagate', apparently dumped on the legal resources in Pennsylvania (the state that the Republican would desperately need to win to keep his aspirations alive).

The president has also taken legal action in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin

, occasionally calling for the suspension of the counting of votes by mail due to lack of legal guarantees or due to difficulties of access by Republican observers, or requesting a new recounting when the difference between the two candidates is less than 0.5% or even 1%.

He is also part of the

team

, which has succeeded to date in blocking attempts by the Manhattan prosecutor's office to access his financial documents.

In any case, a unified strategy and a great name are missing, in the role of the "new" James Baker, leading the efforts.

"The Bush v. Gore case focused on a single state and required the participation of hundreds of attorneys,"

attorney Benjamin Ginsberg, who served on the Republican's team in Florida in 2000, told CNN.

"What a campaign needs to raise multiple counts in different states is overwhelming. It is not proven that the Trum campaign has the necessary infrastructure to carry this out."

Another substantial problem is the need for funds to finance legal actions.

White House Counselor Pat Cipollone called a special meeting on Thursday, focused on raising donations to fund machinery that has even moved "too slowly."

Trump could also recruit old collaborators like Jones Day, Emmet Flood or Cleta Mitchell.
