The Supreme Court decision came down December 12, 2000. Gore conceded the next day. AFTER the SC had taken the case and RULED against Gore.
I am pretty sure Trump probably feels he hasn't as yet had his day in court.
First I stated the Gore "accepted" the SC verdict and conceded. I already stated the SC verdict came first, hence the past tense of "accept".
Second, Trump has had 60 court cases and a pleading before the Supreme Court.
What is the criteria to judge when he has felt he has had his day in court? Do we just delay the transfer of power until he says it's OK? Does it get to be his choice? At what point do you think Trump will voluntarily release power if you give him that option?
Do you think one more court case is going to change his behavior? What if he loses that second SC case, and decides he needs a third? A tenth?
Any cases he wants to file between in court between now and Jan 20, I say have fun. But nothing short of a court order from the SC or a Federal judge should interfere with the transfer of power on Jan 20. any attempt of his is treason.
No evidence will be good enough for you that he is contemplating marshal law short of seeing the tanks rolling down main-street. And then you, Eagler, RotBaron, and the other Trump apologists will say, "well....he had to do it because...well Hillary and stuff. Antifa...Kamala, blah blah blah..."
I've given the Trumpers every opportunity to come out and say, "Oh, well he pulls that and I'm done with him and I'll man the barricades myself."
You're the first one who has even pretended to be against it and frankly, I suspect you will change your opinion later. I wish I could believe you. I've lost all trust in many of my fellow citizens over the last 5 years. I truly do not believe the vast majority of Trump supporters would ever draw any line, any line at all on Trump's behavior. They would merely adjust the excuses.
We'll find out over the next month. I hope to God we can get to the other side of this without seeing violence.
