Their assumption is that no one will fight back against their nonsense.

Glen as always sheds light. Being the skeptical Sumbitch that I am, wondering whether trumps stooges on the Supreme Court are already briefed and prepped on their part of this tragedy. Slappy is promised another ride on the yacht?

And, just another reason to put a stake through the electoral college.
