want to find 11,780 more dollars in my account

[GoodTaste]

Can you see what the phrase "want to find 11,780 more dollars in my account" refers to? I don't know Sam Harris (American neuroscientist, the author of The End of Faith) would have liked it if it simply meant to be more money in the account.

I just called my bank and told them I want to find 11,780 more dollars in my account by tomorrow and that they counted wrong

The word "more" means there what it always means.

He's referring to President Trump's Saturday statement about the number of votes he wants the Georgia Secretary of State to find.

It's political not financial, but, just as our bank won't give us dollars for free, the people in charge of elections won't give us votes because we want them.

(Without giving any opinion on the rightness/wrongness of the US election)

As GoesStation and Tdol say, it's a joke.

The president wants an official to magically find 11,780 votes that don't exist. So Sam Harris thinks his bank should find him $11,780 that doesn't exist.
