The Surpreme Court will probably just not hear the case but if they do, I look forward to the 9-0 scathing drubbing and only wish Scalia was alive to write it.
The Frankish Reich Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 And so it ends. Will anyone tell Trump it's over? Today's 7-2 decision slapping down the State of Texas lawsuit was really a 9-0 unanimous decision. The two who added their own two-line opinions -- Alito and Thomas (NOT any of Trump appointees; thank you for proving him wrong when he thought you'd be political hacks) simply noted that they would have dismissed the case on different grounds. There is nowhere else for Trump to go now except to the state legislatures and the Congress itself. That would be a pure political power play, not even wrapped in the guise of a legal proceeding. As many have said, it would also be the final norm to be broken by a President who seemingly relishes the opportunity to break norms. Being a conservative used to mean that one appreciated and defended norms ... 1

oldmanfan Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 It is done. It was done Nov 3rd. The only reason we have to put up with this is because a 3 year old in the White House is having a temper tantrum. If he tries anything else like forcing legislators to change the will of the people he should be arrested for sedition. 2 1

Honestly he's crossed that line already pressuring election officials not to certify, state legislators to somehow overturn it, and Governors to also not certify. He's gotten away with for two reasons. 1. The same reason the impeachment didn't go through the senate plus democrats just want the process to throw him out without them getting into the muck with him. 2. Our government doesn't seemed to of taken into consideration that someone would ever do the things he has or maybe more accurately they thought we wouldn't let him. 1

The only reason I don't think it's legally sedition is because none of the Republican officials Trump's pressured bowed to the Dictator-Wannabe-in-Chief's threats. They saved his ass by refusing to do his bidding since there needs to be an actual seditious action. Otherwise, he's just exercising "free speech" however reprehensible and dangerous his words may be. 21 minutes ago, Warcodered said: Honestly he's crossed that line already pressuring election officials not to certify, state legislators to somehow overturn it, and Governors to also not certify.

Warcodered Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 Maybe they can take it to the Supremer Court and if that doesn't maybe all the way to the Supremest.

Don't waste yourself on this Narcissist he doesn't care about you, he's raised hundreds of millions of dollars supposedly to fight the results of this election and only spent a fraction of it on it, he doesn't care. 1

Backintheday544 Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 Trump tweeted the Supreme Court has no wisdom. I feel like he appointed 3 of them. Shouldn’t he have vetted their wisdom prior to putting them through the confirmation process? Republicans approved all 3 mainly along party lines. Does this means Republicans are also a bad judge of wisdom? 3

I challenge any moderate to challenge me on that topic. This nation was built on the social contract. We must...for the sake of a bette tomorrow, sacrifice small amounts of our liberty to ensure we live in a society of laws where property rights are respected.
