Actor Edward Norton has slammed President Donald Trump's longshot legal challenges to contest the election results, accusing him of sowing chaos in an attempt to avoid legal peril.

'I'm no political pundit but I grew up w a dad who was a federal prosecutor & he taught me a lot & I've also sat a fair amount of poker w serious players & l'll say this: I do not think Trump is trying to 'make his base happy' or 'laying the groundwork for his own network' or that 'chaos is what he loves,'' wrote Norton.

The more we learn about vote fraud and history, the more we realize that:

NIXON SHOULD NOT HAVE CONCEDED IN 1960!!!!

His concession only EMBOLDENED the Demon Rats and their election fixing!!!!

Not starting this week; the evidence has been pouring in since the beginning of the month.

And if we see THIS much, imagine how much the Trump team knows!

It’s a matter of collating and presenting it now.

Why do we even record what an actor has to say?

Go to the grocery store in your town, pick someone at random, and you will likely get a more informed opinion.

Yes, and the that Douché(Deutsche)bank is making noise, too.

They will destroy his life and any deals will work as well as it did in Michigan.

**Palmer said Wednesday that she was misled because following the second vote, Benson stated that the agreement wasn’t binding.**

Leftist don’t keep their word.

Yeah... a self described... “actor”. Writing a narrative— hey eddie, did you know Adam Schiff is a narrative writer also? Making shite UP. Didn’t you work for another lunatic... Oliver Stone? Hey the shite fits, plaster it all over yourself and keep the flies biting and coming in. “Hey, look at me— I’m a political expert. A stand in for Sean Penn— who is down in... VENEZUELA with the freedom taking fighters for Maduro and Chavistas. Viva Socialismo o Muerte.
Socialism or Death. And free oil for Citgo to give way in Massachooooooosits (See: Ed Kennedy, of the Non-Profit, now defunct or renamed).
