And here we have it. The reason to rush the ACB Supreme Court fiasco.

on the night Pres Trump says he expects the election to end up in the Supreme Court, @Yamiche reports one of his legal advisers said today "they're hoping Amy Coney Barrett — quote — "comes through"

1. they can hope all they want. Something would have to make it's way there and so far

none of his challenges are doing that.

2. Not going to happen.

In fact, it was never going to happen. It was just another Trump pipe dream. John Roberts even tried to warn him - he made a very public statement that courts don't determine election rules or laws; state legislatures do.

It was just more Trump bluster and lies, just like tonight.

3. We always knew that

they are about as subtle as a gravy sandwich

8. Yes, they made that abundantly clear.

4. What a jeanyuss.

5. Oh, that was clear from the start.

There was a reason it had to be done by Election Day. Not that I think it’s gonna help. But it was one of the first things Trump said after the vote totals started coming in was he was going to take it to the Supreme Court.

6. If SCOTUS goes along with Trump and overturns the election

It will literally break the country. We cannot have a nakedly partisan court. States will openly start defying it. It could end the country.

7. Yep. Worth every case of Covid they transmitted--in their eyes.

But the flip side is that once she was confirmed, a lot of GOP lawmakers had everything they really wanted from Trump and might then be more anemic in their support of his reelection.

9. He treats the Supreme Court like it's a fast food joint.

Sorry dude, no special orders. He has no legal standing to even get a case that far. He has been going into courts with nothing but "we think there's fraud" and has been shown the door in short order in each case.

10. He may expect it to end up in the Supreme Court

That doesn’t mean it will. So far Trump’s lawsuits have been denied damn near instantaneously. Snd with good reason. The law isn’t on their side, and their complaints are paper thin.

And if it does end up there, we can’t overlook the fact that if the court rules in favor of trump Robert’s’ legacy will be utter shit and the court will lose all legitimacy for generations ( to the extent that any legitimacy remains).

11. She's an extremist, but even she won't be able to side with him in this case.

All of the votes in PA arrived on or before Election Day. Trump's argument is that a person should be disenfranchised because his or her state took too long to count their vote.

It's just not happening. If the Court takes this case, it's still likely to be 9-0.
