To me it's pathological, this guy can't stand to be a loser. I believe that even if (or rather when) he loses the legal challenges, he will go to his grave thinking he was robbed. And so will a lot of his supporters (who gobble up any kind of conspiracy theory available).

Do you know what has happened to the American courts over the past four years?

Do you think he honestly beats L Ron Hubbard or Joseph Smith? I mean they might never have been president but Trump will probably just be a historical curio with no lasting influence whereas they have religions to this day.

He’s not planning on leaving, dude. The NewsHour just speculated that both sides are already accepting that it’s going to be decided in the Supreme Court.

Well I'm still holding faith in the American legal system. His appointments may be conservative but they are still legal experts.

Anyhow, it will be interesting to see...

That’s astonishing to me. That anyone capable of reading this still believes there’s going to be a peaceful transition is like ... whew ... I don’t know where people get their optimism from. It must be nice.

Not in response to adidasss :

They didn't even show up for his inauguration. Very doubtful.

Btw, there's a difference between a peaceful transition and his ability to challenge the election (more on which you can read here: Trump's longshot election lawsuits: where do things stand? ).

I’m well aware of the Pollyanna positions that our courts, and especially the Supreme Court, will uphold justice.
