monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

Well, in my opinion, Trump's latest appeal is where he has to come up with evidence because the accusation are supposed to address the points stressed by Judge Brann Saturday. This time they are saying Penn. voting officials "engaged in an intentional scheme to count defective mail ballots which they knew would favor Joseph Biden over Presidential Donald J. Trump."

It seem to me this is a specific allegation which would require actual proof. I mean do they expect the courts to indulge their fishing expeditions to find "proof" forever? Or do they think the Supreme Court will rule differently than all these courts have rule so far?

I'll tell you, if Trump wins through this disgusting attempt of Trump to get around our democracy, they will be just be a kangaroo court and our elections a joke.

Trump appeals big loss in Pennsylvania vote case that seeks to block Biden win

Do we have to wait for our SCOTUS to either shoot Trump down or deny to hear it, or Heaven forbid, uphold Trump's case and give him a second term?

I mean do they expect the courts to indulge their fishing expeditions

while the GOP has privately accepted that Biden has won.

Trump and his team are now busy in locking in their policies. They know they're losers. Are they trying to be troublemakers?

Hard to imagine things being different if an actual Mafia mob boss was in the WH.

It’s hard to fathom the rank cowardice. I mean, they’d rather risk national security breaches, and tens of thousands more dying of Covid than speak out against the smarmy Don.

I guess I am sour puss, but, I have gone beyond thinking this whole thing kind of funny, it it not a joke, though I wish it was. Trump is destroying our whole country all by himself. Election officials are getting death threats, people are already on edge because of Trump's failure to deal with COVID but now people on all sides are getting even angrier than they were before the election. Not to mention how it appears to the outside world, allies and foes alike.

When I read this, I was skeptical that Bernstein would be honest about the starkness of their hypocrisy.

But he really seems to be honestly disgusted.

DETROIT — Republican Party leaders who are urging Michigan's state canvassing board to hold off certifying the Nov. 3 election results when it meets Monday have cited what they described as "significant problems and irregularities" in Wayne County, home of Detroit.

The GOP officials have pointed to the number of “unbalanced” precincts, where there were small discrepancies between the number of ballots cast and the number of voters logged by election workers in the poll books. Party officials are calling on the board to conduct an audit before it certifies President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the state.

“To simply gloss over those irregularities now without a thorough audit would only foster feelings of distrust among Michigan’s electorate,” Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and state GOP Chair Laura Cox wrote in a letter Saturday.

But state and county election data show that four years ago — when Donald Trump carried the state by a much narrower margin — twice as many Detroit precincts were out of balance.

At the time, the problems were widely condemned by Democratic leaders, including Garlin Gilchrist, now the state’s lieutenant governor, who called the city’s handling of the election “a complete catastrophe.”

But neither Trump nor the Republican Party questioned the validity of the election results — or demanded an audit to verify the vote tally.

In the fall of 2016, 392 Detroit precincts, or 59 percent of the total, had discrepancies of at least one ballot, accounting for at least 916 votes, the data show.

This fall, 179 Detroit precincts, or 28 percent of the total, had discrepancies of at least one ballot, accounting for at least 433 votes.

Detroit had more vote errors in 2016 when Trump won Michigan by a narrow margin. He didn’t object then.
