STEVE BANNON (HOST): This is what you're up against. This is what we're fighting. We are not going to bend to this mob. That's the future, that's the future of your country. Those are the people, you see, oh "count all the votes, count all the votes", they don't care if they're illegal alien votes, they don't care if they're coming back from the dead, they don't care if they're made up. "Count all the votes, count all the votes," well no, we're not going to count all the votes. It's not going to happen.

You're going to be tearing your hair out, you're going to be crying, you're going to be having riots, we don't care, we don't care, we're not counting all the votes. We're going to only count the legal, certifiable, chain of custody from living folks that are registered to vote. Those are the votes that we're going to count. And we're not going to count anything else. And when we count those, Donald Trump's going to win in a massive landslide.

...

All the lawsuits were wrong. All your lawsuits, the remedies didn't get you to victory, didn't get you a decertification, didn't get you enough votes. So I don't want to hear about the great crack legal team you had, you didn't have a great crack legal team. We wouldn't be doing this today if you did.
