“...why hasn’t Trump followed legal advice and asked the USSC to intervene with an emergency hearing.”
We don’t know, and I am not sure it has to be done in August 2023.
It is not a simple as it sounds as he is indicted in federal and state jurisdictions. Therefore the Supremes could split or nail the coffin shut on his emergency appeal. Instinctively I do not see them stopping GA and NY after what they did not do (take up the case despite Alito’s warning) when PA supreme court unconstitutionally interfered in PA’s 2020 election.Also, I think Roberts and maybe ACB or Kave-inaugh would vote with the leftists to allow the feral judicial process to go forward.
“I think Roberts and maybe ACB or Kave-inaugh would vote with the leftists to allow the feral judicial process to go forward.”
Ok, that reasons out. Their hesitancy is probably due to uncertainty on how the USSC would rule, considering how left-leaning Roberts and the other supposedly rightie justices sometimes lean.
