I understand that.

I am saying that I think there are clearer constitutional issues, such as state executives and bureaucrats changing election laws and thereby usurping the constitional role given to state legislatures. But even beyond that, the fraud issues in breaking laws should lead to illegal votes being outright tossed.

To me what this case was about was less constitutionally suited to USSC relief, even though bringing a state against state case might have seemed the quicker and surer route to getting the USSC involved.

I think that strategy was to make it less political (that is, the outcome didn’t have to be a Trump victory, but simply a reexamination of the voting procedures in those states and a revision of the totals to reflect that.

I guess Trump could appeal on his own, but I think they would be even less likely to take it on. It’s certainly possible that I’m wrong, and maybe that would work.

I hope the GOP and Trump still try to pursue this through the courts, but it was a pretty devastating loss, considering the number of states involved.
