Chris Wallace: "This is an extremely flammable situation and the President just threw a match into it."

Before all the votes have been counted, as expected Donald Trump has already declared himself the winner.
Wallace said on Fox News:
"This is an extremely flammable situation and the president just threw a match into it. He hasn't won these states. Nobody is saying he's won the states. The states haven't said that he's won. You know, this goes right back to what Joe Biden said, which is that the president doesn't get to say that he's won states that, you know, the American people get to say it, the state officials get to declare it. And I guess and I don't know whether he literally means it, but he said we will be going to the Supreme Court because we want all the voting to stop. Well, voting to stop, yes. But vote counting? You know, these states by state law all have the opportunity. And states routinely are unable to count votes by election night or early into the morning of the day after the election. And it goes on for days. Now, there may be a question as to how long you can continue to accept ballots, but there's no question that all these states can continue to count votes for days. They don't have to certify for weeks who has won the state. That was what happened in Florida back in 2000. So I don't know if he literally meant that he's going to try to stop the counting of the vote. But I would think that that would be extremely inflammatory. And frankly, I don't think it's something that the courts would allow."
