    I know, I know. We’re talking about Trump and his lawyers here, which means nothing makes sense by default.

    But wouldn’t the counting of the votes be a congressional inquiry? I mean it’s literally answering the question of “Who won the election?”.

    Can we go back to the days where a sane Supreme Court would have laughed this entire argument out of the room?

      I would not call any supreme court “sane” but there was a period where there were some basic standards.
