He wants SCOTUS to give him a gift in a state that matters. Virginia was nice but not necessary for Democrats.

Nice of him to get all the denial stuff started early so both sides have a nice heads start.
/s
On a serious note though, dems can weapons this
“Trump is a sore loser even before people vote”
But they won’t.

The thing about wrestling in the mud with a pig is that the pig likes it.
High road allll the way to losing. Yeeehaw!
Just learned to fucking wrangle a pig in the mud. It’s been done.
I dunno, when she said at the debate that people were getting bored and leaving his rallys early, that was straight out of the trump playbook, and he did not seem to like it at all

If the democrats hadn't been pussies for two decades before Trump and effectively welded power, we wouldn't have had Trump.

Pig tends to not like it as much if the end result is you cook some bacon.
Also, the thing about not wrestling in the mud with a pig is, you're bitch-made.
Democrats should file a lawsuit every time he does, just because.
if the courts werent so loaded in his favor those suits could be more easily dismissed.
If the Democrats had any balls Biden would court-marshall him and charge him for interfering in international affairs pertaining to both Israel and Russia. Skip the courts, he served the executive branch, head of the military, take him to a military court.
Best I can do is a court-TJ-Maxx
Fun TJ Maxx fact: in England the stores are called TK Maxx, apparently because "TJ" means "tug job".

Didn't it used to be a crime to file frivolous lawsuits?

trump is a universally understood joke.
The campaign did not point to any instance in particular that led it to believe that voters had been treated unfairly in Bucks County, but county officials had observed that there were complaints on social media (shared by the Trump campaign) about long lines to obtain mail-in ballots on Tuesday, the last day of their availability.
If you wait until the last minute you might have to wait in line with the other procrastinators. This is not cheating or fraud it's just common sense. But it tracks for Boomers to throw a tantrum if the world doesn't magically accommodate them and they have to wait for anything.
They did not have any facts to present but they feel like cheating is occurring. That's enough for a lawsuit right?
Its so weird to see this unfold now where they know they can't win in any legitimate manner so they are doing stuff like this before the election is even over. Its like, hey guys we only need the election to have a pretense that cheating is going on, which we all know is happening, but we blame it on the other side and seize power.
There was already an instance I read about yesterday where some former representative was caught on camera stealing ballots from a test machine and then telling someone else that the counts were fucked up (because he stole the ballots) so they want to create their own reality where the election is rigged...
I honestly think it's going to work... They're either going to get lucky and hate wins the day outright, or they'll force a win through ratfuckery... :(
I honestly think it’s going to work
I don't pretend to be able to predict the future, but Trump tried this same thing four years ago and couldn't pull it off - and he was actually still the President at that time. Seems like it would be even more difficult for him to do it this time as an ex-president, especially considering that he's now so old and senile that he can't even paint himself orange properly any more.
It's not up to him to install himself, but to have people work on his behalf at the state level. That is what failed the first time, but they've since "corrected" by having as many "election deniers" work in the departments necessary to mess with the states/counties vote counting. If they can get enough people gum up the works and to push enough lawsuits to drag this out they can then go to the SCOTUS to ask for them to essentially say "it's been long enough, you have to stop counting." in an event similar to Bush V Gore. :(

I saw that one too. Even if the media reports on it truthfully with headlines that don't ragebait readers by withholding the fact that it was a R stealing R test ballots, MAGAots are just going to cherry pick "R ballot stolen" and raise their pitchforks.
Objectivity and truth doesn't matter to the Qult of bigots, unfortunately.
that it was a R stealing R test ballots,
For clarification, he and a number of other voters were pre-selected to test the functionality of the ballots and voting machines to ensure no glitches happen on November 5. And while they were not the final draft of the ballots that were actually used, they were legitimate ballots by actual voters who voted early, and those ballots were just as valid as the final drafts.
So yeah, the guy stole 3 votes.
It's not even the stealing of votes that was the point of his actions, he stole them and then pointed to the machine as the issue telling someone "fucked count." He is trying to get people to believe that the voting machines can't be trusted to properly count which is exactly the point. If/when they lose they'll point to things like this as an example of how the election was "stolen" to justify them stealing the election...
God I hate these people...

And with the usual ambiguous word salad too.
Hey, you heard about all this incredible cheating? Cheating. Cheating! Vote cheating is bad, it's so bad. Never seen anything so bad I tell you. But the police does nothing. Nothing! You think vote cheating is ok? I don't think people should be allowed to get away with it!
Etc etc etc ad nauseam.
Not enough capslock
The election is RIGGED. Votes are being STOLEN from PROUD AMERICANS. You go to the poles and they throw away YOUR vote. But not when your vote is for BIDEN, no. The IMMIGRANTS are voting illegally and he counts their votes. But not for hardworking AMERICANS. And NOBODY stopped him. We WON'T let that happen again! HILLARY stole the vote! GO OUT THERE. COUNT THE VOTES. THE TRUTH WILL WIN.
SAD!
