Actually it's just the opposite.

Republicans know they can never win at the ballot box. That's why they gerrymander and use voter suppression. It's also why they want authoritarian rule.

You want them to put on their big boy pants and hand down a decision that aligns with your biased opinion? That is rich. You are a bit of a gas bag aren't you? Really nice reasoned argument for a lap dog. You don't need to suggest what the supreme court should decide and it looks like the "Donald" has plenty of legal experience: https://www.abajournal.com/web/article/attorney-and-author-on-his-portrait-of-donald-trump-through-more-than-3500-lawsuits

Is this case eligible to go through the appeals process and all the way up to SCOTUS if necessary, with a stay of execution until it’s resolved in the higher courts(if applicable). I knew our justice system was jacked but not this corrupt and partisan. Neo-Marxist Tactics to be sure.
