The nonsense suits will end as soon when #DiaperDon announces his 2024 presidential run; tRump 2024, Donny's Revenge. Or when he flees the country to avoid criminal prosecution.

Poll: Just A Quarter Of Republicans Accept Election Outcome

https://www.npr.org/2020/12/09/94438...ection-outcome

...and that's what's driving the relentless money grab. The clueless cult of Donny. Sad little morons. They're as dumb as the idiots who send money to televangelists.

I think we've seen their answer.

About the Texas Lawsuit

https://ewerickson.substack.com/p/ab...-texas-lawsuit

Quote:
Ken Paxton, the Attorney General of Texas, is under a federal investigation and would love a presidential pardon. His lawsuit is just more performative leg humping by someone desperate to curry favor with President Trump.

The various attorneys general who have joined his lawsuit all want to either get re-elected or seek higher office. Joining the lawsuit gives them some measure of ring kissing or protection from any rabid Trump supporters who wanted a “just fight” moment.

I personally think my company should pay me workers compensation for brain damage for having to read that lawsuit and related filings. It really is one of the stupidest bits of performative leg humping we have seen in the last five years. These attorneys general are willing to beclown themselves and their states all to get in good with the losing presidential candidate.

The suit is absurd on its face. These states seek to interfere in the internal affairs of other states when those states are not actually electing the President, but allowing their voters to chose members of the Electoral College.

Were this to succeed, which it will not, the states will start suing each other at every election as a bit of theater.
Best summary of this ridiculous piece of garbage "lawsuit" I've yet read. Political theater, nothing more. Hopefully, SCOTUS won't just do the one-sentence denial on this one, but will do a scathing statement about its absurdity and its threat to democracy.

The second paragraph explains why Republican incumbents are supporting Trump to the bitter end - reelection in 2022.

More on Statistical Stupidity at SCOTUS
Yes, the nonsense in Texas AG Paxton's lawsuit is as bad as it first appeared

https://reason.com/volokh/2020/12/09...ity-at-scotus/

Hell, even the Libertarians (who are generally wrong about nearly everything) see right through this nonsensical "lawsuit".

Fact-checking claims about Fulton County's election | These 'suitcases' are actually ballot containers
Supporters of the president are calling it #SuitcaseGate on social media. However, they are not suitcases. 11Alive confirmed they're the standard ballot containers.

https://www.11alive.com/article/news...b-a29dd9dcb888

The suitcase story being spread by Reich-wing media is pure bullshit. Only those as ignorant as the Insane clown believe this nonsense. Sad little Trumpkin fools.
