As President Donald Trump continues to fight the presidential election results, numerous people close to him are expressing concern that he's spiraling into rage and hurting his own legacy, as well as the Republican Party.
Those concerns were exacerbated Monday when Trump blindsided officials throughout the White House and at the Pentagon by firing Defense Secretary Mark Esper with a tweet, multiple people close to the president said. The hope, these people said, is that this week ends differently from the last and that the president's lawsuits challenging the election results in multiple states quickly run their course.
The moment is particularly perilous, even for a White House that has powered through on chaos for nearly four years, with all the uncertainty unfolding against the backdrop of a new coronavirus outbreak among the president's closest advisers - including his chief of staff and the top lawyer on his campaign legal team.
"There needs to be a candid conversation with the president. There is no path to victory," said a person close to Trump, who said Trump "deserves his day in court" but added that continuing to cast doubt on the election results "destroys his legacy."
"It distracts from the legacy he has to be proud of and marginalizes him," this person said. "It does not behoove him to drag this out much further."
Another Trump ally described the goal of the lawsuits and public statements alleging voter fraud as "branding Trump as something other than a loser."

Horse sh## story, sorry to disparage horse sh## though
If true, time to get new aides.
But what are the chances it’s true? Given the reporting on Trump over the past 4 years it’s fake news.
Fake News.
1. The media wants him to concede and fast
2. The media wants to create this narrative that it’s hopeless and that even Melanie, his son-in-law, his aides, his lawyers knows it over and is embarrassed that he continues on
Propaganda from Beijing?
Yes, if he submits to a stolen election, his legacy will be eradicated in mere months, and the nation will be finished.
Sounds as if there is a bit of fear among the slime media. There were 71 million votes for Trump and my guess is the only people expressing what FAKE NEWS NBC is reporting are the last of the never Trumpers.
Trump needs to carry this fight down to the last second and force a verification of EVERY vote in the areas suspected of fraud.
“It began to sink in that this was over when foreign leaders — who are allied with the president — began congratulating Joe Biden,” a person close to the White House said.
BULL FECES!
Dealing with him is like dealing with a “recalcitrant teenager,” a person close to the White House said.
Gaslighting 101.
The more writers usually means more BS
Complete fiction.
Who is posting this garbage? Nothing NBC “news” says is credible.
PRAY that this turns out like Steve Harvey’s Miss America fiasco!
This is their next tactic to try and “shame” President Trump into stepping back from exposing the fraud.
What a bunch of unadulterated crap and propaganda! Did anyone see the video of PDJT popping into a wedding qt his club in VA on Saturday? He sure didn’t look like a man consumed with rage...
Trump became more dug in on the notion of election fraud and at times was ranting about it to guests at his club.
Ha!
