🚨BREAKING: In a late-Friday filing, Trump and @GOP ask Federal Court to BLOCK the counting of mail-in ballots cast in Pennsylvania via drop boxes, that lack inner envelops, or have been delivered via third party.

This assault on voting rights will fail!

2. This is hilarious since tRUMP has a very poor record of success in the courts!

5. Yes, but he ignores ruling against him

and just keeps appealing. He will do this in multiple states after th election, contesting every state he loses.

7. Trump is so scared of verifiable hand marked paper ballots.

Seems like Trump thinks he is more likely to win if voters show up in person and enough use touch screens. Why might that be?

9. This right here

It's the only thing that makes sense. Trump is scared shitless of a verifiable election that he and friends cannot steal.

8. Technicalities.

Perhaps he and his goons think that if they continue to close down polling places as Republicans have done in past years, and use every trick they can dream up to eliminate mail-in ballots (in swing states), then a lot of voters won't want to risk their health to stand in long lines for hours at fewer polling places to vote in person: The Big Squeeze. Of course his base includes many older voters in high-risk groups who could be affected by such "crimes against democracy."
