That sounds like they are pretty much admitting that they will reject the results of the election if they don't like it. Kind of like what they did after 2016.

The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by JimLamebrain View PostDershowitz is another Trump toadie so I wouldn't put much stock into anything he has to say on the matter. Like he said himself "we don't know how the court is going to come out" and being that there is precedent in the Nixon case, as well as in the recent McGahn case, that the President must comply with Congressional subpoenas, that, in the words of Judge Jackson, the President is not a King. Besides, Dershowitz argument sounds specious to me. Just because the Supreme court is granting review of Trumps challenge, doesn't mean he is free to make those challeges. That's what they will be deciding on
And of course anybody issued with a subpoena is free to challenge it in court. Why wouldn't they be? You'll have to explain your reasoning here.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
