GA is done. Pat Toomey says PA is done.
That’s pretty much it. If certification in Michigan goes smoothly, then Biden will his 270 certified electors by Tuesday.
Trump isn’t playing for a legal challenge. This whole “we’re going to the Supreme Court faster this way” thing is mind boggling and stupid. The Supreme Court hears cases in which the facts are established by a judge/jury or agreed upon by the parties. They don’t hear witnesses. They don’t try cases and determine facts. They announce what law will apply to the given facts. Trump campaign hasn’t established any facts that would create an issue of law. He’ll be lucky to granted certiorari on any of these cases at this point unless SCOTUS takes it to bitch slap the case like this PA judge did in the hopes that Amy Coney Barrett and Kavanaugh’s signature on something like that might bring a few million people to their senses.
Given what has happened with the cases they’ve filed already, I’m just dumbfounded that anybody is still talking about this like it’s a real thing. It’s not.
It’s a con, unless he’s actually doing the Flynn defense and trying to do enough rabble rousing that Republican legislatures try to appoint their own electors and overthrow the whole government. I’m skeptical that he can get enough of them on board with that.
Obviously pure personal opinion but based on a documented fact.
I moved comfortable with the word "con" when the cut of donations going to the actual fight (only 25% now) fell thru the floor.
I mean when emails include phrases about how BADLY the money is needed for 'the cause' but only bother committing a tiny portion.
Plus, he walks away with control over the party. When it comes to an end, he'll have 10X the money and power, and the ability to self pardon any misuse of funds.
Hard to say "they lost" no matter the outcome.
You know those kids are like "Daddy, this politics thing is freaking awesome!"
