Judges appear increasingly frustrated with Trump's legal claims about 2020 election (barf alert)

The recent scene in Clark County, Nevada, has become increasingly common in courthouses around the country as President Donald Trump continues to push thinly supported allegations of election misconduct and fraud.

When Republican lawyers in Nevada complained their observers were not close enough if they could not hear everything poll workers were saying, U.S. District Judge Andrew Gordon pushed back.

"At what point does this get ridiculous?" the exasperated judge, an appointee of President Barack Obama, asked before ruling against the Republicans.

In court hearings and opinions around the country, judges are voicing similar frustrations with the Trump campaign's legal filings to a degree rarely seen in venues where political rhetoric is generally unwelcome, experts and courthouse veterans said.

"Judge after judge after judge has asked, in essence, 'Where is the beef?'" said Karl Racine, the attorney general for the District of Columbia and a frequent Trump critic, in a call with reporters Friday.

"We have seen numerous instances where affidavits have been filed … only to be immediately pulled back once tested in state and federal court," said Racine, whose own lawsuit against Trump in connection with the president’s Washington, D.C., hotel is on hold pending appeal. "I would not be surprised that if these baseless allegations continue, judges will begin to threaten and indeed issue sanctions."

Yeah. So are their counterparts in the MSM. Obviously this will hit the SCOTUS. Then the arguments will have to be made public even in the “If we don’t report it, it didn’t happen” MSM.

These judges are apparently not familiar with our founding documents, musta missed that in Leftist schools.

Sob...sniff...an “exasperated judge.” I’m just heartbroken to hear that.

Let’s see...one “exasperated judge” versus 73 million furious, disenfranchised Americans and communism in America. I know which sideI come down on.

Employees of the Deep State are not going to “find” any of the fraud that the Deep State invented.

Legal is the operative word.

Trump is making claims based on the law.

These judges don't want to be put in a position to uphold the law if it would benefit Trump.

That's why they are frustrated.

Sounds lie the Judges are just making ad hominem attacks.......

When the law is on your side, argue the law. When the facts are on your side, argue the facts. When neither the facts nor the law are on your side, make an ad hominem attack.

If the judge cannot be impartial the judge should recuse.

Its not their job to get frustrated with the evidentiary process. Its their job to hear the evidence — all of it.

Dogs bark. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The South Pole is cold. ABC and the rest of the MSM and big tech platforms lie.

Calling the reporters to tell them what to say/write....nice.

Obama judges?

There should be no Obama judges on these cases.

For that matter, there should be no Clinton judges, Bush judges, Carter judges or even Reagan judges on these cases.

The press is determined that they be the ones who elect the president.

In a political court case there would certainly be political rhetoric and politically biased judges. Why is the world always such a shock to the elite?

Well....we have gone from “Unsubstantiated Claims” to “thinly supported allegations” so I guess that is a chink in the armor.
