Pressure and litigation appear to have been the pillars of President Trump’s response to his general election loss.
His team filed a litany of court cases in battleground states. In some, such as Georgia and Michigan, the president and his allies took an even more bullish approach, attempting to use their influence to bear down on election officials.

But he has yet to concede the election.
In a chaotic effort to overturn the election results (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/20/us/politics/trump-election-lawsuits.html?smid=pc-thedaily), the president and his campaign lawyers have spent weeks claiming without convincing proof that rampant fraud corrupted vote tallies in many battleground states.
These efforts heavily targeted cities (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/22/us/politics/trump-republicans-black-voters.html?smid=pc-thedaily) with large Black populations.
