Trump is under the mistaken impression that SCOTUS is going to save him.

I think it's quite clear that the court has no interest in wading into Trump's quagmire.

I mean, would you, if you were Roberts? They know he's flailing like a fish on the deck of a boat gasping for air with all these frivolous lawsuits.

I mean, there is no hope, folks. It's time to allow Biden to be 'ascertained' and move forward. Team Trump is a train wreck, and like Gov Christie said, 'Trump is a national embarrassment'.


The Supreme Court is running the clock on Trump's election lawsuits, experts say
[...]
But on October 28, five of the justices turned down the request to expedite a hearing in advance of Election Day. To Justin Levitt, a professor at Loyola Law School who previously oversaw voting-rights cases for the Justice Department, it was a clear signal the Supreme Court wasn't interested in wading into election issues — no matter how badly Trump wants it to.

"By deciding not to put that case on a particularly fast track, the court signaled that it's not especially interested in wading into this election, the president's fantasies to the contrary notwithstanding," Levitt told Insider. "And I can promise that if that case didn't get put on the fast track, none of the other pending cases are anywhere near close to drawing Supreme Court attention: They're either frivolous or borderline frivolous, and the court knows it."
 
Let them run it through the courts. We need to document any voting issues in order to establish a baseline on what we consider acceptable voter fraud. How are we to determine wide spread voter fraud without a baseline to reference?

What is the most secure election in U.S. history going to establish in that regard other than there was no fraud that would change a thing. The recounts did what they did, and that did not change any outcome. Maybe it could set a precedent that you can't try to continually subvert an election by just making s*** up week after week.

How exactly will that happen when the cases keep getting dismissed or voluntarily withdrawn? What is being established?

Nothing. Let it run its course
 
Nothing. Let it run its course

There is no course to run... When a lawsuit is dismissed with prejudice it's over... The ONLY thing an appellate court will review is whether the case should have been dismissed and/or dismissed with prejudice.

The process ends when appropriate. Not before.

The only “voter fraud” happening is being done by Trump and his accomplices.

Yet, you assume Trump and his legal team, or those entities suing to challenge the vote, haven’t already been provided with an opportunity to present evidence of fraud in state and federal courts. The Trump legal team and others have been afforded the opportunity to present the evidence in various state courts and two federal district courts. The evidence was either non-existent or so de minimis, that the suits were dismissed.
 
I want Trump and his supporters to lose multiple times before Biden takes control from them.

Let them lose in the courts hundreds of times.

I have the popcorn.

Foreign media needs funny topics.

Trump supporters need to feeeeeeel like victims.

Everyone wins.

I'm not sure the lesson you want learned is coming out the voluminous number of law suits that are being laughed out of the court rooms.

But then, Qanon say to make your own reality, so why not?
 
They're saying, "We want to embarrass ourselves in a variety of courts across the land."

Now, while I agree that we should put up a pretense of disagreeing with that idea, eventually we should "cave in" and "agree to their demands."

"Widespread voter fraud". *L*
 
Trump has to try anything. Court and massive debt awaits.
