My concern is shenanigans at the election supervisor and precinct level regardless of what the SCOTUS says

My first thought was, "It won't matter in CAL, NY. etc." However, absence of Trump's name might change the coattail numbers and turnout.

Don’t know. But it was talked about in 2020 about interests having trillions of dollars at stake if Trump won again.

Similar to oxymorons in Orwell.

Maybe Jack Smith should read up on the law and show some courage in his convictions instead of asking SCOTUS to spoon feed him . He’s basically trying to figure out if he has a case before trying to make it so he can go find a different line of attack in court — He certainly doesn’t want to waste time with a loser of a case.

I think this action by SCOTUS is better than ruling that Trump has immunity. If that had happened the propaganda “SCOTUS ruling shows bias” would be playing at max volume. But we should not become complacent.
