A 6/3 Republican leaning SCOTUS and we're seriously worried about the outcome of Pennsylvania, everyone chill down with the doomery

A 6/3 Constitutionalist leaning SCOTUS (that's very concerned with appearing legitimate and not stirring the waters too much).

The "Clarence Thomas taking revenge on Biden" memes may be funny, but that's not how it works in reality.
SCOTUS won't steal the election for Trump.
Nor will they choose to cause a constitutional crisis based merely on scattered evidence of minor voter fraud or Democrat rule-breaking here and there.

The only way for Trump's lawsuits to yield any success, is if his team is somehow able to produce massive, shocking evidence exposing the whole Democrat voter fraud machine in those swing states.
So shocking that SCOTUS will have to act.
And let's face it, Trump's team won't be able to do that.
They're grasping at straws instead, setting up hotlines for tips from the general public like ambulance-chasing lawyers.

The lawsuits are mostly for show (so that Republicans can say they put up a fight).
And that's fine; contrary to the media's screeching, there's no need to formally concede the election before the Electoral College has named the winner.

But let's face it, the Electoral College will name Biden the winner.
Let's get ready for that.

Beat me to the punch on my prediction. Wouldn't have as many issues if we'd just kept the voter restrictions from before.
Shit, you can keep Women's Suffrage, just limit it to landowners and you'd solve a good portion of the issues here.

So if (and yes unlikely but indulge me) a court of original jurisdiction rules in Trump's favour does that settle it assuming no appeals? Does the lower court have the power to pass an order of that magnitude? How jarring would the narrative shift be if it was Biden and the DNC going for certiorari if a circuit court finds in favour of Trump?

I've heard claims that Hillary told Biden 'not to concede under any circumstances' and she did. The interview is actually pretty interesting in retrospect because she said the Democrats needed massive numbers of poll workers to stop intimidation by Trump supporters. Of course, massive numbers of poll workers primed to stop a coup are also exactly what you need to stage a coup. Also the Democrat strategy of letting any Democrat who asked be a 'poll worker' implies that when Trump did unexpectedly well and the fraud needed to be amped up, many of the people doing probably had no idea of what you can and can't do to steal a US election. Same with the lawyers actually. In PA they unilaterally changed the rules over the objection of the legislature and defied Alito's court order. Kathy Boockvar isn't some Machiavellian genius, she's a two-bit crooked lawyer who suddenly found herself playing in the big leagues where she may well lose. In PA she had her cronies on the state supreme court back her up but that will not be the case at the SCOTUS.

WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton said in a new interview that Joe Biden should not concede the 2020 presidential election “under any circumstances," anticipating issues that could prolong knowing the final outcome.

“Joe Biden should not concede under any circumstances, because I think this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don't give an inch, and if we are as focused and relentless as the other side is,” Clinton said in an interview with her former communications director Jennifer Palmieri for Showtime's “The Circus,” which released a clip Tuesday.

The 2016 Democratic presidential nominee predicted that among several scenarios, Republicans are going to try to “mess up absentee balloting” so that they could get a potentially narrow advantage in the Electoral College.

“We've got to have a massive legal operation, I know the Biden campaign is working on that,” she said. “We have to have poll workers, and I urge people, who are able, to be a poll worker. We have to have our own teams of people to counter the force of intimidation that the Republicans and Trump are going to put outside polling places. This is a big organizational challenge, but at least we know more about what they're going to do.”

Clinton said she thinks that the only way Trump could win re-election is “by either suppressing or stopping voting, or outright intimidating people into feeling that they have to go with the strong guy to stand up against all these threats that Trump is going to gin up to scare people.”

Each court technically has the power to pass that order, but that shit is not going to stick. No one will be happy with that. Regardless of what the people on the court actually think about the case, they know it's smarter to just pass it up the line to expedite the whole shitshow. The narrative is already in Bidens court so to speak, it'll be him fighting the dictator.

How anyone could take any ounce of "reconciliation" from the Democrats at this point is ridiculous. It's straight up war-talk here. I have to ask, has anyone else ever been pressured or attacked at a polling station? I've been mildly annoyed by ballot samplers from both parties but that's the worst of it. I'm willing to wager that 99% of the polling stations in America are completely milquetoast and harmless, and the other 1% are located in major cities.

The media pretty much painted itself into a corner here then. There's nothing they can screech that hasn't been said already.

 

[Kane Lives]

It's 50% genuine care, 50% pure terror because if America falls we are going to have it way worse than you could possibly imagine.

I admit to a biased self-interest in wanting Trump to stay on, primarily for his anti-CCP stance. From the perspective of a SEAsian, Communist China has been rattling sabers far too much lately for my comfort, and only the continued American influence has kept them in check so far.

Biden's gonna bend over and take Xi's dick and won't blink an eye.

What Trump is hoping for is just that enough Biden ballots get thrown out as invalid in recounts to get to 270, not that the entire DNC gets arrested for fraud, which won't happen. We'll see if that happens.

Yeah, what this guy said. I'm genuinely at least somewhat optimistic about Trump's chances of pulling this off, but even I know that the people who are in the mid or upper ranks of the DNC who set this shit in motion will most likely never be held accountable for it.

 

[Coccxys]

Not America but I used to work for the police and worked the evening of the Brexit referendum in a run down working class town with a history of voting BNP/UKIP and that entire shift was removing screeching lefty children from obstructing every white male they saw from polling places. Remember anything they accuse the right of is projection.

Interestingly I was in a remain voting town and there weren't any losers obstructing the polls. I guess they were confident they'd win.

I've got friends there too and the idea of the US appeasing Chinese expansionism is terrifying. The world will burn and the US will not escape the flames.

It's also worth pointing to Democrats who seem to love their Apple shit that Apple Silicon is made at TSMC. Good luck getting hold of it if China invades or even bombs the factory.

I think it’s the fundamental issue that 1.) China would genuinely be a worse world leader than America (as they see the rest of the world as tributes/resources and don’t even pretend to care about any Western ideals), 2.) For better or for worse, America is the font from which modern pop culture and politics flows, and 3.) If America falls, there’s really no escaping the consequences anywhere in the world, your children included.

Regardless of the results, a body blow needs to be inflicted on the Dems to check their ability to pass legislature unhindered.

Appealing to people's love of Taiwanese semiconductors is probably not a great campaigning tactic. I wouldn't suggest using that one, bearing in mind reddit does not make up much of the electorate.

Why would they pretend to care about western ideals? They're literally eastern with millennia of their own philosophy.

No they don't. The CCP made a lot of effort to absolutely crush the actual philosophy and beliefs of the ancient Chinese. The CCP is the nation equivalent of wearing someone elses face.

You are painting this as if Trump doesn't have any actual evidence of voter fraud despite what's already been posted on this thread.

This is a black suppository. They're trying to subvert a major world power and you're the crazy lunatic for noticing it.
Imagine had they had an actual brain, some finesse and we would have never found out.

China will be a better world leader than America in every single way. No Chinaman ever called me a white supremacist.

Western Ideals

I piss on those. I, for one, welcome our new Asiatic overlords.

Good point. Maybe we should stick to appealing to their love of not being shot by Insurrection Act forces.

 

[Pointless Pedant]

No they don't. The CCP made a lot of effort to absolutely crush the actual philosophy and beliefs of the ancient Chinese. The CCP is the nation equivalent of wearing someone elses face.

A lot of peasants thought Mao was the new emperor at first because they didn't know the 1911 Revolution had happened. When it comes down to basics, "the ruler has a divine mandate and you must obey or die" is actually quite similar to "the ruler has the CCP behind him and you must obey or die."
