Donald Trump must not expect quid pro quo from #SCOTUS

Trump must concede but refuses to acknowledge the obvious.

He is delusional.  Yet, Trump is likely to seek a quid pro quo from the United States Supreme Court! 

Donald Trump has lost the 2020 election. 

Maine Writer- In fact, he lost twice.  He never received the majority of the popular vote in 2016 and he lost the popular vote in 2020.

Echo opinion published in Bakersfield.com, in California:

 

Nevertheless, Trump is now trying to undermine our democratic process. I believe Trump’s goal is to take the election result to the Supreme Court, where he has a chance to silence the people’s will.

During his term Trump appointed three Supreme Court justices. 

Now the reason why a president can appoint justices is for the reason of checks and balances. The president can change the direction of the court. This way the judiciary branch doesn’t have too much power. However, I believe the president is trying to take advantage of this and have the Supreme Court give him a second term.


By claiming fraud and saying that the election was unconstitutional, Trump can take this case all the way to the Supreme #SCOTUS where the court can “repay” the president for his appointments and invalidate the election. Whether this is his plan or not, the president’s actions are concerning because he is putting unnecessary fear into the minds of Americans. He is creating doubt in our election process which has been secure for almost two and a half centuries. For the good of the nation, Trump must concede.
