Rudy Giuliani and other lawyers leading President Donald Trump’s effort to overturn his defeat described a widespread and implausible fraud on behalf of Joe Biden in a lengthy news conference on Thursday -- offering little new evidence for their claims but signaling that the long-shot fight will drag on for weeks.
