Lila15 Good question. This tit-for-tat maneuvering by opposing teams is similar to moves in chess. Using chess as an analogy:
That's Trump's Rook takes Knight, baiting Biden's Queen to proceed closer to Trump's King. Biden's fear and hesitancy is in the air and palpable. Next should be Trump's Queen moves to guard Biden's flank as Pence (President of the Senate) implements discretion to exclude three of Biden's questionable battleground state's votes (on Jan. 6). Biden's electoral votes drop below 270.
Biden's Bishop ineffectively attempts to dislodge Trump's threatening Queen with a call to a bi-partisan vote against procedure on the floor, to no avail as partisanship is strong. Trump's Rook then moves to guard Biden's back row as no candidate achieves 270 electoral votes. The election therefore goes to the House of Representatives for disposition.
The final play is academic. Trump's Queen and Rook, having effectively blocked Biden's clear path to victory, have simultaneously blocked his King. Biden, having made too many rookie errors throughout the game - panics (sensing the end is near), makes a distracting move of a useless pawn that doesn't protect his King.
Trump's Rook, protected by his Queen, takes Biden's remaining Bishop (exposing his King) as state legislatures decide 30 GOP votes to 20 Dem votes. Checkmate, Trump is re-elected. The Fat Lady Sings.
