WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump's allies are preparing for the end of his legal fight over the election results when the Electoral College meets in December, and they continue to push him to accept a conclusion to his presidency and make post-White House plans. "The legal challenges are continuing, but those close to the president, and frankly the president, understand they're futile," a senior administration official said.

Trump's campaign announced Wednesday that it would pay $3 million for a partial recount in Wisconsin.
