Trump can typically reply on GOP officials to validate his claims of conspiracies out to get him, no matter how thinly sourced.
But his attacks on the integrity of Tuesday's election appear to be a bridge too far for some, including several who won elections in that vote.

Former Gov. Scott Walker, a sharp partisan tactician, threw cold water on Trump's call for a recount in Wisconsin.
Biden leads by ~20K votes and Walker noted past recounts have moved only a few hundred votes. "As I said, 20,000 is a high hurdle," he said.
