1. I don't understand legal ease but the ruling out of the state SC had some language in it that said

The case was done and there would be no more appeals. It was posted by Laurence Tribe

[RealityCheque]

2. Wouldn't it be nice...

If the SCOTUS had the power to just say “stop this nonsense already”?

[Lochloosa]

12. They do....just don't accept the case.

[hermetic]

3. Hope they plan to pay

for this themselves.

4. Amazing how far they will go to embarrass themselves for the dictator

what's the endgame of all this? supreme court? doubt it.

7. That's what the post says

They're planning to take this Pennsylvania LOSS to SCOTUS, even though it's not a Federal issue.

That's what all these court challenges are all about - getting something, anything, upstairs to Trump's personal justices. Only they don't owe him anything.

Trump loyalty is a one way street.

10. He's insane. Truly insane.

I guess we'll find out how loyal this court is to their king.

5. Mother told them no.

Now they're asking for any old random strangers' permission. Pathetic.

6. He really thinks 'HIS' SC will rule on this!

More than likely, they will refuse to hear it. There was nothing improper done in the lower courts. There is nothing to rule 'on'.

[liberal N proud]

8. Counting on the very court they stacked

[regnaD kciN]

9. Just as I predicted...

...when people yesterday were posting Learned Legal Opinions on how it couldn’t be appealed to federal courts.

Reality check: ANYTHING can be appealed to the SCOTUS, if the Justices there are willing to grant cert. They really are the law unto themselves.

[CaptainTruth]

11. My prediction: SCOTUS won't hear the case.
