Why would you need a SC judge to decide the outcome? Looks like trump won't accept a loss. Voters should decide the outcome. Not courts.

So, Trump saying he intends to, "take it to the supreme court" an election that hasn't even taken place yet.

Quite telling, no?

many here have been saying, for quite a while now, that Trump would not allow a "peaceful transition," if he loses the election.

So, it appears his plan is have his army of lawyers contest it all the way to the supreme court, and in the meantime, stack the bench with his picks, and overturn the election. That hasn't even happened yet.

I find it hard that anyone could possibly accept his appearant game plan to ursurp the power of the American vote. That's just unAmerican.

Edit: Trump alludes that he will take to the SC. I don't think I heard him commit to that yet. But I am expecting it, just the same.

The GOP is going to go all-out to try and win this election with lawyers instead of with votes.

Their supporters do not care.
