I said a quarter of a century. Not a half a century.
And, Bush v Gore did NOT overturn the election. In Bush v. Gore, SCOTUS ordered Florida to STOP the count, and revert back to status quo ante, which had been a Bush victory.
Also, in Bush v Gore, SCOTUS did not exercise original jurisdiction, and did NOT take new evidence. It just ruled on an emergency appeal.
This frivolous lawsuit is asking for SCOTUS to exercise original (not appellate) jurisdiction. In doing so, it is turning the highest court of the land into a trial court, forcing it to go through thousands of pages of evidence - declarations and exhibits.
Shoot the messenger all you want. But when my predictions pan out, remember this next sentence:
EVERY SINGLE person, party, or entity that signed on in favor of Texas KNOWS the lawsuit is frivolous. Every SINGLE ONE is playing us. They are our enemies.
Now, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
Another silly comment. Nobody forces the Supreme Court to do anything. I’m watching the Jay Sekulow show right now, and they are repeatedly making the point the court already has everything it needs now, to rule however they want, without even any oral arguments if they don’t want them. And they may not because time is of the essence. Your analysis on this is simply and completely wrong.
