Giuliani sure made a mess of it, not just as an advocate, but also as a manager. As DJT’s personal attorney, he should have prepared for this months BEFORE the election. Team Trump should have opposed each and every piece of proposed state legislation that sought to open up mail ballots. Any legislation that squeezed through DJT opposition should have been tested in state or Federal Court. Then, Team Trump should have coordinated legal teams in every state to prepare for the election.
All this should have been done MONTHS BEFORE the election. DJT knew about the issue, and was warning us as early as August.
DJT’s case filed in Federal District Court in PA was, in my opinion, the MOST IMPORTANT Federal District case in the history of this nation. At one point, DJT was represented by a solo-practice attorney specializing in custody and alimony cases.
Generally, SCOTUS reviews the record on appeal. I don’t know if there is any precedent for SCOTUS to accept new factual evidence or legal arguments on appeal.
The basic principle is that Federal Courts adjudicate actual cases or controversies that are brought in front of them. They don’t go out looking for dragons to slay, otherwise, they would not be adjudicating Federal questions, they would be legislating new law, which is strictly reserved for Congress.
My thoughts are that a new lawsuit, with new litigants, alleging pages and pages of actual facts, identifying witnesses, times, and places, should be filed by a new, competent attorney. Maybe the lawsuits filed by Sidney Powell will do the trick. Let’s wait and pray.
If Rudy blew it, it is not him, not the judges for doing their jobs.
If you had been here at FR "MONTHS BEFORE the election", maybe you could have HELPED. Gosh.
Instead of showing up after to criticize Giuliani. Gosh.
It's almost like ... a pattern of new sign-ups who pivot. to. every. single. post-election. lawsuit. thread.
Gosh. Gosh.
"It is NOT at ALL strange they chose someone past his expiration date because it's an all-or-nothing gamble by the Dems to promote VP #Karamela as the bizznatch sheboon for de takeover.
Either Trump wins big and embarasses Biden-Karamela, or through ballot harvesting which is going on RIGHT NOW, the Dems flip FL and MI and PA and Karamela is President before 2022.
The #BLM is a distraction to the unconstitutional ballot harvesting.
Please take a case against ballot harvesting right now and groom it for emergency cert for fucks' sake. Don't wait until after the election, you'll get no traction.
"Come out swinging against mail-in ballots and have Trump threaten imprisonment for ballot harvesting, ie, "If you are found to have harvested ballots, you will go to jail. Period."53 posted on 4/25/2020, 7:47:20 PM by StAnDeliver (CNN's Dana B: "Show of hands: Coverage for undocumented immigrants?" ***all Democrat hands raised***)"But also think [Biden campaign is] trying to abandon [the Tara Reade #Narrative], and have pivoted solely to mail-in ballots and ballot harvesting.
It is their 1-in-100 shot to defeat a 'wartime' incumbent."
