![]() It is very doubtful, in my opinion, that President Trump will overturn the result of the November 3 presidential election--I give him perhaps a two- or three-percent chance (and even that may be too generous)--but if he wishes to try, I can certainly see no reason why liberals would declare that his doing so is "dangerous to democracy."
He has every right--both legal and moral, I think--to pursue his options. Comments?

![]() I agree with the OP and the contention that Trump's chances and efforts are about finished....
The SC contentions are even farther out and most likely will never happen.... IF this does indeed wind up in the SC, don't be surprised if they rule the same way they did back in 2000 to stop the recount dealing with Gore vs. Bush..... The clock is ticking and time is not on Donald side with most all of his courtroom battles getting thrown out for lack of evidence.... Fellas, the fat lady is dressed up and rehearsing behind the stage curtain at this point.... |

![]() The Trump team is now openly asking that state legislatures override the certified election results in their states and award the state’s electors to Trump. Sorry, but that is not “pursuing his options.” That is an anti-American attack on democracy.

![]() While it serves an important function by illuminating Democrats election fraud the Trump campaign law suits are unlikely to overturn the election results. State court judges are fearful of political repercussions for finding against the state government run by a dominant political party. Lower and appeals court Federal judges realize that finding in Trump's favor no matter the evidence would place them on the Democrats enemies list triggering an endless smear campaign and foreclose the possibility of future Senate confirmations. ![]() The SCOTUS under pseudo Conservative turned Democrat activist, John Roberts, has already refused to consider a case of blatantly unconstitutional legislating from the bench at a time when illegal ballots could have been identified and disallowed from the count is unlikely to provide relief even if cases do make it to them. ![]()

![]() There are undeniable electioneering going on, but have yet to see credible evidence that Trump lost any states over it.
It appears that Powell is doing the last ditch attempt through the courts, which means Trump has run out of the obvious legal options, by asking the state governments to stop certification process, that to me is a sign of desperation. Here is the states Certification website: Ballotpedia Election results certification dates, 2020 Final certification vote is just TWO WEEKS away, when the states Electors convene in their respective states to deliver their vote. |
