President Trump met with his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, along with attorney Sidney "Release the Kraken" Powell and former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn on Friday. They discussed a few ideas but these were apparently shot down after Trump's advisors and other allies intervened and warned him against them.
According to reports, the President was thinking about making "Powell, who as a lawyer for his campaign team unleashed a series of conspiracy theories about a Venezuelan plot to rig voting machines in the United States, a special counsel investigating voter fraud,” The New York Times, a former newspaper, reported.
“Most of his advisers opposed the idea, two of the people briefed on the discussion said, including Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, who in recent days sought to have the Department of Homeland Security join the campaign’s efforts to overturn Mr. Trump’s loss in the election.”
Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and White House counsel Pat Cipollone repeatedly pushed back on the ideas that were being proposed which reportedly included Trump asking Flynn about “Flynn’s suggestion of deploying the military.”
Stephen Moore, a longtime ally and economic adviser to the president, and an occasional Fox News contributor, said that Trump needs to “leave triumphant” and “stop grousing.”

Holy crap, Batman! Imagine getting the military involved in a presidential election.
The meeting and the ideas that were discussed freaked out Trump’s inner circle of top supporters, who Powell allegedly accused of being “quitters.” Some of us, on the other hand, don't see this as a good idea as it would have all the earmarkings of a coup. [It's never a good idea for anyone in office to get the US military involved in the outcome of an election, even if it seems justified, which in this case it does.]

Dr. Powell [she is a Doctor of Jurist Prudence, as are all lawyers, which outranks Jill Biden's EdD[ “has repeatedly claimed there was widespread fraud, but several lawsuits she filed related to election fraud have been tossed out of court,” the Times noted.
“Part of the White House meeting on Friday night was a discussion about an executive order to take control of voting machines to examine them, according to one of the people briefed. Mr. Giuliani has separately pressed the Department of Homeland Security to seize possession of voting machines as part of a push to overturn the results of the election, three people familiar with the discussion said. Mr. Giuliani was told the department does not have the authority to do such a thing.”
After the Trump administration distanced itself from Powell after she made wild claims about the election, it became clear that she was too wild, even for Trump.

I believe that when it comes time to go, President Trump will go.
