Trump told Bower to "Let the courts decide."

(I think it was Bower.) Does that mean Trump had already established that SCOTUS was in his court and would rule in his favor, if SCOTUS were to hear the case at all?

Trump Jr. knew that everything which could be "fixed" for his dad's steal, was. Ginni was certainly doing her part in AZ to get over the AZ state hurdle.

Trump's "Court" had several opportunities to support him, and rejected his appeal every time.

Just ruminating about what I heard today.

The Thomas's fit in in a big way, and I think Cavanaugh does as well. Can't forget his female assistant sitting behind him during Senate confirmation hearings making white power signals.

concern that the public wasn't taking SCOTUS seriously but in fact were "whiners" when things didn't go their way....projection, to be sure, but also a foreshadow of SCOTUS being put into the limelight once the AZ blockade was cleared? A sort of public prepping in advance of the event?
