The stage of grief you're currently experiencing is called bargaining - I can assure you courts don't decide elections.

If the Election results are in question, yes, they do.

No they don't - they can rule on whether processes currently underway are constitutional (ie. the 2000 recounts), but they have no authority to decide elections.

Again, this is bargaining, and the faster Trump and his diehards accept what the rest of us already have, the sooner we'll be able to start fixing what he's managed to destroy over the last 4 years.

Destroy? Last time I checked, ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter weren't Trump supporters. All you've accepted is a "Dewey Beats Truman". As for the courts having the authority to decide elections, the Supreme Court can determine the outcome.

Yeah, I'm not talking about breaking windows on a couple dozen blocks across the country - I'm talking about things like blowing up foreign markets with dumb tariffs and destroying our legitimacy on the world stage by turning tail in Syria while allowing the Russians to take over our bases and the Turks to slaughter our allies.

Give it up - it's over, the moron lost, and no the Supreme Court is not going to determine the outcome, but they may weigh in if someone pulls some unconstitutional shit during ballot certification or the electoral college vote in an attempt to throw the election to Twitler.

Dumb tariffs? China is a threat to America's economy. How did fulfilling the will of the people destroy our legitimacy? Trump pulled out of Syria because unlike Obama (who allowed ISIS to run wild), he is willing to pull our troops out of unnecessary conflicts in the Middle East. Calling Trump a Facist? Trump is not the one advocating for sending the opposition to "Reeducation Camps" and his supporters are not attacking people and burning down buildings while dressed in black. That would be the Left. Calling Trump a moron? Last time I checked, Trump wasn't the one costing his own party seats by wanting to Defund The Police. That would be the Radical Left. As for the election, Trump did not lose. The Media, who are in league with the Democrats (the party that is rigging the election), prematurely declared Biden the winner and as I previously stated, the media doesn't decide the results of the Election.

Charging Americans arbitrary taxes on imported goods doesn't change that threat, although it did destroy foreign markets for our goods and services, bankrupting thousands of family farms and small businesses well before the pandemic came along to finish the job.

But since you're clearly gullible enough to believe this nonsense, I've got a great bridge for sale, but I'm going to need your down payment now because there are other interested buyers.

Thousands of workers lost their jobs because it was cheaper to outsource labor to Chinese sweatshop labor than to build stuff here. What good is having a foreign market for our products when our manufacturing base is moving overseas? By making it more expensive to import goods, he made domestic manufacturing cheaper, creating more jobs than it destroys.

Not thousands, millions - manufacturing jobs in America have fallen by more three quarters over the past 80 years because it's cheap and easy for American companies to outsource to developing nations that don't have worker protection. When they do bring manufacturing back, it's because it's cheaper and easier to automate than it is to train and use foreign workers.

That said, yes - I understand how tariffs are supposed to work, but what you're missing is that they're a small part of a much larger strategy he simply didn't have. In order to create jobs, the tariffs have to bridge the delta between more expensive domestic production and importation of foreign-produced goods, but Trump's haphazard implementation was done while we lacked capital, capacity, and foresight to start produce necessary items - so it just became an arbitrary tax on foreign goods.

And of course, we also need to consider the damage those tariffs did as part of the bigger picture, because the nations he slapped them on retaliated in kind, and that needless trade war destroyed foreign demand for American produce, manufactured goods, and services abroad, which our small businesses relied on.

No. Big business relies on foreign demand for our goods. When Disney and the NBA bend over backwards to appease China, it is Disney and the NBA who gets all that Chinese cash. Their profit margins were not damaged by the trade war with China.

I'm really not sure what point you're trying to make here - Disney and the NBA don't produce anything targeted by tariffs on either side of Trump's stupid trade war.

I'm talking about raw material, finished goods, and services - all of which have been targeted - and which led to a massive number of American bankruptcies well before his botching of the pandemic threw the default machine into overdrive.

And that's before we get to the real meat of the discussion which is that our trade imbalance has actually increased (we're importing more) by nearly 20% since he took office.

.....nnnnnnnooooo, judges don't pick the President, voters do. Unless it's George Bush but that was weird anyway.

If Election results are contested, then the courts have the final say on who gets the White House.

That's not quite how it works. If the election cannot be decided by Inauguration Day, the Constitution actually gives the presidency to Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House.

However, the election HAS been decided. Joe Biden won. The Electoral College itself is a formality run by party hacks - there won't be any surprises when they meet in December.

What you're hoping for is for the courts to hear evidence of illegal election tampering. However, in order for this to reach the Supreme Court, they have to appeal it up to that level of the federal court system, which the Supreme Court never accepts unless the plaintiff has standing - which, in this context, requires Trump to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that fraud happened, but moreover that it happened across enough ballots to change the result of the election.

That's a difficult thing to prove. Screenshots of theories Trump found on Reddit will not cut it.

And Rudy Giuliani is just the worst person to put on that job.

It's not going to happen. If Trump had substance to his case, he'd have announced it - and the courts so far have just been dismissing everything he's brought to them.

Again, the media does not decide the results of the election. As for proof, poll watchers were denied entry, Democrats boarded up the windows of the counting room, the Project Veritas Whistleblower Video, a social worker getting charged for multiple accounts of voter fraud, two guys getting busted for having boxes of fake ballots in their car, Trump votes being found in the trash, and Hammerhead and Scorecard being provided by Dominion, a company owned by the Clinton Foundation, a group that has donated to the DNC.

The Trump administration admitted in court they had poll-watchers in every state beginning at 7am on election day as required by law.

The only case that's been picked up so far was a group that said they were too far away, and that was immediately remedied by the state of Pennsylvania after the ruling in their favor.

The rest of it - well hell, you're referencing Project Veritas, so you should know by now it's bullshit.

Poll watchers were denied entry and Philadelphia and the Pennsylvania Board of Elections have refused to enforce the court order. As for Project Veritas, you are only saying it's bullshit because you .

Except that's patently false - sure the campaign has been saying it in public, but as I've already pointed out that when it came time to do so under threat of perjury, they admitted their observers had been in place the entire time.

The Philadelphia order was to move observers from 25 feet away to 6, which they did comply with only to have the Republicans continue complaining because they couldn't observe the votes on the ballots - which isn't what they were even there to do.

I'm saying it's bullshit because there's no evidence. Your guys crowed all weekend about how they were going to court with massive amounts of evidence yesterday and what happened? That's right, not a go***mned thing.

The only reason they're doing any of this is because gullible rubes who don't understand how our government works will continue to send them money, and they're lining their pockets.

No, They are doing this because the Democrats are rigging the election.Is the police chief saying he will not enforce the court order complying? No, it is not. In fact, it is the opposite of compliance. There is plenty of evidence: Affidavits, footage of a postal worker in Kansas City dumping ballots, thousands of Trump ballots being found in the trash, two armed men caught with boxes of fake ballots in their car, a social worker arrested for multiple accounts of voter fraud, Hammerhead and Scorecard being provided by Dominon (which is owned by the Clinton Foundation and has Nancy Pelosi as a majority shareholder), and the Project Veritas Whistleblower Video. Unlike in movies and TV shows, courts don't make big decisions in a single afternoon. Also, claiming that Republicans are lining their pockets while supporting a man who lined his pockets with money from illegal overseas deals makes you a self-righteous hypocrite.

No, it makes you a gullible rube who still, against all reason and evidence, believes Rudy Giuliani.

Rudy Giuliani took down the mafia. Biden didn't.

Sure - and then when Rudy's mob investigation into Robert Hopkins led him to investigate money laundering at Trump Tower back in '86, he was flipped by the prospect of becoming Mayor, and the case was buried.

He's been openly corrupt for decades, and you're still pretending he's something he never really was.
