    Even if this batshit argument somehow prevailed, Biden would still have more than 270 electoral college votes needed to win.https://twitter.com/fordm/status/1325938181372514305 …

    The Trump campaign’s new federal lawsuit wants the courts to block Pennsylvania from certifying its electoral votes, effectively excluding the state from the Electoral College: https://cdn.donaldjtrump.com/public-files/press_assets/2020-11-09-complaint-as-filed.pdf … pic.twitter.com/uj5EEbrDN5

        It's difficult to game out where this is going since Trump really doesn't have any plausible move to stop votes from being certified. Nor does Trump have infrastructure needed for a coup (army is not going to do it). So all that is left is delegitimizing election while losing

        If the batshit legal theory prevailed they'd do the same thing in Georgia Wisconsin and Arizona.

        If they can cheat Biden out of even 1 EV, they will go after every one.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        A candidate needs half the total plus one electoral votes are required. With 538 Electors, a candidate must receive at least 270 votes. If PA is, for some reason excluded, then there are 518 votes available, and a candidate needs 260 to win. He would have 270. So he still wins.

        If Pennsylvania’s 20 EC votes are out then winning is no longer 270. Just saying....
