Is there any lawyer with sufficient heft to manage the several large litigations that need to be brought in several state and federal courts, with an eye toward getting viable appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court from enough states to make a difference ?????
So far, the Trump team seems to be full of people who would rather argue in parking lots or on the court house steps, and on Hannity >>> rather than inside any courtroom
To describe the post-election legal work for President Trump thus far as "hit and miss" would be inaccurate, because it is so much closer to "hit and miss and miss and miss and miss and miss..."
The biggest failure so far is the complete absence of any marshalling of evidence of either actual fraud or a pattern of demonstrable irregularities on any scale sufficient to trigger any intervention by the courts or anybody else. --- And as for any constitutional arguments related to the equal protection of voters within a state, has anybody seen anything more than a few anecdotal descriptions that would prove disparate treatment of classes of voters in any state.

A very good question about equal protection. Pennsylvania was the issue and I just read Trumps lawyers in PA quit. Rudy had a press conference at The Four Seasons landscaping. This is the poor mans home depot. The anecdote was from a PA voter who witnessed fraud. Turned out he wasnt a PA resident but a registered sex offender. Not Rudy the voter.
It looks like Donald Trump's Campaign's challenges to the votes in several states has turned into smoke that's blowing away and mirrors that are mostly cracked. It's quickly turning into a legal fiasco and a PR nightmare, even by Donald Trump's standards.
A few times I heard the phrase, 'Don't bet against Trump'; but every player that's any good knows that sometimes your luck runs out or you just get a run of bad cards. Whether you call that luck or simple statistics, there is no really good way to play bad cards, especially if the good players that you're up against are playing what should be winning hands.
If Trump is serious about 2024, then maybe he should cut his losses in 2020.
Politico has an article out about Trumps lawyers in Pa quitting at last minute. Porter, Wright, Morris & Arthur claim they werent filing fraud allegations and folded. Porters spokesperson claimed it was a toxic atmosphere. Sounds like Porter was happy to volunteer services for the President until it looked like he was no longer gonna be President. Then Porter made a new deal with Biden to do nothing. Brooklyn & Philly have a lot in common.
If Trump doesn't win these recounts, he is done. Maybe, even jail time.
Some Democrats are doing "enemies lists" for Trump supporters, what do you think they have in store for Trump himself?
Gale you need to contact the RNC immediately. NY Post has a story about the congressional leadership appointing Nicole to lead the GOP squad against Ocasio. Gale you have to convey that nobody likes Nicole.
Politico article also states Trumps lawyers in Michigan filed his case in the wrong court house.
RESPONSE: THE "NO NEED TO RAIN ON NICOLE'S PARADE AT THIS TIME" EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 11:35 AM"
THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF TIME TO GO AFTER NICOLE IN DUE COURSE, SHE IS ONE OF THE LOWEST HANGING FRUITS IN THE BROOKLYN & STATEN ISLAND GOP..... AND AS SEINFELD MIGHT SAY AT A TIME LIKE THIS, "NOT THAT THAT'S A BAD THING".....
MEANWHILE THIS IS BIGGER NEWS FOR A BROOKLYN GOPer NAMED "JQ" OR JUST "Q" TO THOSE CLOSE TO HIM, LIKE JUSTIN & ME
It seems that there was a very long puff piece in the Brooklyn "Tablet" on the four recently elected Conservative-Republicans in what was called "South Brooklyn".....
That part isn't the news. The news is that the article is by John Alexander, remember him ? >>> So, who does that mean the story is not by ??? Let me give you a hint --- "Q" ! Need more of a hint --- "JQ".....
Now, let's read the tea leaves..... Hmmmmm !!! OMG, I don't know how to read tea leaves.
So, instead, and in honor of this week's power player of the week on the upcoming Chris Wallace show on Fox >>> Alex Trebek <<< let me say this in the form of a question --- "Is the fact that 'Q' or 'JQ' didn't write all that nice stuff about Nicole and Vito and Toonces and Mark with the crazy ethnic name a good thing for 'Q' or 'JQ'; or is it a good thing for 'Small Hands & Feet'; or is it a good thing for somebody whose middle name is 'Ambrose' ???"
Now, I have to say this >>> I think it is mostly a good thing for [wait for it.....] JUSTIN..... (Sorry, I had to say that, because as everybody knows Justin and a few of his henchmen are now in charge of this blog.....)
UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "FAIL-SAFE STRATEGY OF THROWING THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE INTO DISARRAY IS LIKELY TO FAIL FOR PLAYING IT TOO SAFE" EDITION
ALAN DERSHOWITZ' OPINION THAT TRUMP'S ONLY PATH BACK INTO THE WHITE HOUSE FOR A SECOND TERM WAS BY A CONGRESSIONAL VOTE AFTER A FAILURE OF EITHER CANDIDATE TO ATTAIN 270 ELECTORS IS LIKELY TO FAIL, BECAUSE MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE VOTE CHALLENGES WILL BE RESOLVED PRIOR TO THE TIMELY SELECTION OF ELECTORS
DICK MORRIS SAYS THAT THE HAND-COUNT "AUDIT" IN GEORGIA IS A CHARADE AND NOT LIKELY TO SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE THAT STATE'S PRIOR VOTE COUNT
THE DAILY CALLER REPORTS THAT RUDY GIULIANI IS BEING PUT IN CHARGE OF TRUMP'S LEGAL CHALLENGES AND IT'S NOW SLIMMED-DOWN TEAM OF "FIGHTERS"
All of that seems like more really bad news for Team Trump.....
Slimming down the team means what? Less lawyers for a big court battle? Makes sense.
Gale you nailed it. Trump is done in by his lawyers.
Rudy the new Fredo
its over for Trump.
OPINION: THE "DIVINE INTERVENTION SCENARIO --- OR --- IF YOU'RE CLASSICALLY LITERARY AND NOT TRADITIONALLY THEOLOGICAL, THE 'DEUS EX MACHINA' SCENARIO" EDITION
THREE ASSOCIATE JUSTICES FOR WHAT LOOKS LIKE THREE CLOSE LOSSES BY TRUMP --- THREE PLUS ONE EQUALS FOUR --- AND THEN --- FOUR PLUS ONE EFFECTIVELY PICKS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES IN 2020
Here's the deal:
Third Circuit (Pennsylvania) -- Justice Alito -- tweak that order making it broader, so that almost all of the mail-in ballots and their envelops are subject to intense scrutiny by partisan observers;
Seventh Circuit (Wisconsin) -- Justice Kavanaugh -- follow Alito's lead and do a broad order for all of the Wisconsin mail-in vote; and
Eleventh Circuit (Georgia) -- Justice Thomas -- follow Alito's lead and do a broad order for all of the Georgia mail-in vote.
Add one more Justice to those three and the whole case gets heard by the whole court; add one more to that and the results in the three states mentioned above could be overturned.....
Pennsylvania has twenty (20) electoral votes; Wisconsin has ten (10) electoral votes; and Georgia has sixteen (16) electoral votes >>> that's forty-six (46) electoral votes, which if subtracted from "President-elect" Biden's total of two hundred ninety (290) leaves him with two hundred forty-four (244) and not nearly "President-elect" anymore; and to get even more giddy with the possibilities, if added to Trump's total of two hundred thirty-two (232) would give him total of two hundred seventy-eight (278) and re-election as POTUS in 2020.
Now, that is an improbable longshot, but it is not impossible.....
The Alito stuff in the 3rd circuit is the most compelling news I've heard.
In the state of Michigan the difference is presently 146,111, but an attorney for the Trump team has indicated that a programmer has determined that a single algorithm shifted up to 69,000 votes from Trump to Biden in the overall count.
If true, that single methodology could reduce the Biden margin in Michigan by 138,000 votes down to about 8,111.
Andrew Gounardes tweeted that there are more than 20,000 absentee ballots to be counted. If that's true, he would need to pick up more than 14,000 of those votes to overcome Vito Bruno's election day lead.
Is andy still around
If there were 120,000 absentee ballots Andy would still lose lose lose.
434, it’s true but a bit over 14,000 came from registered dems. Assuming they voted party line and or didn’t just vote president, he has a chance. Republicans returned about 3200. Unaffiliated returned around 4000. Its gonna be a close race. Hoping for Vito...
It not looking good for Skevich and Bruno. Skevich is up 2,300 with 9,000 ballots to open. Bruno is up 5,000 with 25,000 ballots to open. Over 75% of these ballots are from registered Democrats. Well, it was nice while it lasted. At least we were able to get Nicole over the mountain. It's just a shame she is owned and operated by Jerry Kassar.
RESPONSE: THE "MUCH BETTER FOR THE BROOKLYN GOP IF VITO LOSES" EDITION
TO ANYBODY INVOLVED IN THE GOUNARDES-BRUNO COUNT AND/OR EMOTIONALLY INVESTED IN IT
HAVING RATSO VITO BRUNO AS A GOP ELECTED OFFICIAL WOULD BE A PERMANENT BLIGHT UPON THE BROOKLYN REPUBLICAN PARTY >>> AND ANY MEMBER OF THE BROOKLYN GOP THAT DOESN'T PERCEIVE THE "MORAL IMPERATIVE" OF CONTINUING TO RESIST HIS ELECTION IS A PROFOUNDLY FLAWED INDIVIDUAL THAT IS UNWORTHY OF BEING FOLLOWED OR SUPPORTED IN ANY FUTURE POLITICAL VENTURE >>> SO FAR THAT SEEMS TO INCLUDE EVERYBODY ACTIVE IN THE BROOKLYN GOP
For example, this blog has singled out Bob Capano, because he has personally abused his position of public trust as a journalist/ columnist/ and GOP opinionator. Knowing Ratso Vito Bruno's well-reported and publicly admitted history of sociopathic, unlawful and criminal activities in the conduct of his businesses during several decades, Bob Capano actively covered up those facts and personally participated in Vito Bruno's "Big Lie" defense that none of that really happened and Bruno was a legitimate business man.
If we here at "The Brooklyn & Staten Island Independent GOP Fountainhead" discovers any other Brooklyn Republicans or others associated with the Brooklyn GOP actively supporting and covering for Ratso Vito Bruno to the degree Bob Capano has, they too will be singled out, and tarred and feathered in the same way as Bob Capano.
Kassar says Skevich will win. Big news for Liam if Skevich pulls her out. Liam and Skevich are thick as tieves on a QAnon Caucus Ticket
If Vito doesn’t win this cycle, there won’t be anymore GOP state senators from Brooklyn. Wait til the super majority redraws the districts next year.
All of the 4 new GOP electeds (do I have to name them all) have wiped out the opposition. But you ex GOP losers can still chat. Thats all you do.
If Bruno falls short, they need to run him against Brannan
