This always happens when major news hits. At least last time we got some laughs out of HHH mistaking a 3 for a 1 and trying to act like we got deboonked.

Whenever major news hits, the users pretty much try to come up with every way possible it can turn out. Then trolls and other assorted spergs come in and create infighting. Afterwards, things die down a bit and it’s mostly arguing about small details. Then the cycle repeats itself, which is why this thread gained so many pages so fast.

The whole situation is bizarre and there won’t be a good ending no matter what. Millions of people have woken up. I don’t think the majority have thought about politics to this degree in their entire lives. And the media had been gaslighting people for years long before Trump but Trumps presidency turned it up 100 notches. Trump has accomplished a lot but raising awareness of the lies and manipulation is probably the most useful thing he has done. As bad as it is it is also a good thing for people to be thinking and seeing things they were not alert to before.

When they declared Biden president they turned the pressure up even higher , they are trying to force GOP officials to say Biden is the new president......say it , just say it, say Biden won...because they know the damage of someone coming into office as an illegitimate president because that’s exactly what they did to Trump and he has been undermined his entire term.

It’s not going to work, too many people realize something is fishy. There is no way Biden will be accepted and people who think he will just slide right in and fix everything are deranged and delusional. This will be the same situation as when Trump got in only a little better conflict wise because Trump supporters do not stand around screaming and protesting in a destructive way like libs do. They don’t set things on fire and destroy property they just wave their flags and yell about their rights and guns and church and ’merica.

People who voted red down the ticket for the first time did it because of Trump , not the GOP. He has brought life into that party and their betrayal of him is backfiring on them right now. There are many who would follow him or a new party that supports his leadership style and agenda.

Everything they are proposing to do once Biden is in isn’t going to help the avg person at all and people will soon see this. People who think it’s great now that Trump is gone, ask yourself what are you going to get out of this? Are you just listening to the MSM and focusing on stupid tweets? Not one thing they are proposing will help you as an average person. increasing refugeee settlement over 700 percent, giving amnesty to illegal aliens who are already here, getting back into Paris accord. 100 day mask mandate. Raising our taxes and corporate taxes (low corporate taxes create more jobs) None of these things will benefit the avg person. Jobs will be gone, they will put you in a mask and shut everything down. But no more orange man being mean to people so it’s all good. I think more things are about to be exposed, this is like a bomb ready to go off.

Trump made me realize I would rather have a white proud traditionally patriarchal toxic masculine heterosexual asshole as president over a passive aggressive catty bugman or a mud person or a nigger.

I still think safe harbor means you can't file lawsuits past the deadline. It doesn't stop the SCOTUS ruling on ones that have already been filed.

It hinges on the interpretation of "conclusive," which I argue to mean decided. Given it has realistically been invoked once, and was just barely settled by the deadline, a legal argument as to the meaning of "conclusive" would have to be argued if they were to try to vote after tonight to allow a lawsuit to affect the nomination of the electors. That would create precedent that does not currently exist, but with the number of strict textualists on the bench - I see it as unlikely that they take that avenue.

If they want to lose their power in the Supreme court filled with commies then go right ahead. They'll just impeach all of the conservative judges if they get the senate which is looking very likely. So riding with biden will get their jobs taken away.

I don't think it's impossible. However, I see the Cruz PA lawsuit and Texas one on Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin as giving the SCOTUS a way to kick this to a contingent election without involving the state legislatures.

Obviously, I hope the SCOTUS does the latter and agree the former means the US is destined for tyranny and/or some sort of breakdown.

We already have one, if Trump cross the rubicon you'll have to be and act as 80s hulk Hogan for his 100 days and if biden is the true victor ill turn into copium Haribo and shit up threads with doom and gloom.

Is the other wager is who will Supreme Court picks? The most they'll do is just let legislation pick right?

I forgot about our wager.

I think you're correct, but that would be even if they would dismiss that many electoral votes, which seems unlikely. Trump would have to win a lot of states for that to happen. That is even assuming the SC won't just laugh this lawsuit out of court for being so ridiculous.

Do you really think Alito asked for those briefs 9pm on the 8th so he can say on the 9th 'Sorry, I didn't get a chance to look at them before midnight so it's all moot?

Incidentally, I've decided that despite arguing your case in a fairly literate manner you're basically doing the same thing as the 'BIDEN WON. COPE AND SEETHE TRUMPTARDS' posters. In fact, their posts could be argued to be a more efficient version of yours since they don't need to do any Googling of US law to post.

I believe he made the response deadline intentionally so close and so late to the safe harbor deadline so that they could just let it sink, yes. Why would he originally set it on the 9th?

Uh, okay, thanks? I hate to break it to you, but I don't really give a shit.

Yes. Honestly if you are willing to expand your options, you'd be surprised at how many opportunities pop up in foreign countries that you would not expect at first glance.

Honestly, I'd choose Malawi. Maybe it's the challenge, or the call to adventure of trying to make it in such a remote/nondescript region. Their southern major city Blantyre has a sizable Scottish expat population, of all things. There's even a website - it's the strangest thing. You'll find the more sensible African states are wise enough to maintain (cordial) relations with and cultural aspects of the old colonial powers, just adapted to fit the unique needs of their citizens.
