    I suspect this is why.

      Fifty cases in the dumpster behind the court house. Maybe Trump will become a 'Dumpster Diver.'

        As everyone expected.

        Perhaps consider making voting compulsory next time? That should lessen much worries over voter fraud.

          The crazies are convinced it's the Texas case that's actually going to hand Trump the election.

          You'd think Trump's people losing 50 election-related cases would make them realize he lost.

          You'd think Trump's people not proving in court a single case of fraud in voting or counting, nevermind the tens or hundreds of thousands needed to overturn the election, would make them realize he lost.

          But no, the crazies are convinced that massive fraud really must exist even if every instance of it is invisible and not a single instance provable, and so they're desperate to see the democratic votes thrown out and the result of the democratic election overturned.

          Trump himself genuinely seems to not be able to understand why the judges he put in office aren't simply deciding to throw out the election result and declare him the national winner. He doesn't seem to understand the concept of evidence and simply seems to deal in favors. He views himself as having done them a favor by putting them in office, so he can't understand why they're not returning him the favor and putting him in office, whatever the lack of evidence of any fraud whatsoever.
          "I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
          "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
          "[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

              Was all this malicious assault on democracy necessary? Only the lawyers in polished silk Hong Kong suites came out big winners.

                Trump, throughout his presidency, has laboured under the delusion that the judiciary and the military were there for his own personal use and to do his bidding. He never seemed to grasp the fact that his roles was only ever that of a public official.

                  Perhaps Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barrett are actually "deep state" plants that are fully paid up members of the clandestine [and international] cabal!

                    Meanwhile, Texas criminal AG, Paxton, goes bonkers in bid for Trump pardon. His plan to derail Biden is bound to fail, but the effort might bring a reward.

                          Yeah!!! The lawyers for the Republicans are buying yachts, BMWs, and new houses on the Florida island (which were built on filled swamp) with Trump. They pocketed millions.

                            And the career politicians (the swamp) are filling Biden's administration.

                              At this point trump has been going beyond what is legal, calling Republicans to get electors for him. SCOUS and the DOJ and all those Judges (including trump appointed Republican Judges) and Republican officials have all shown that trump has no grounds to stand on and is only out for himself, no matter the consequences to the country and its people. And who are the people giving him money and why? It's not going to fight the election results??

                              How anyone can buy his nonsense, how anyone can support him or even allow for his conspiracies at the cost to the nation is entering into his narcissism.
