Trump Tweets: The Supreme Court better hand him the presidency

[UCmeNdc]

The GOP has a habit of signalling their plans to each other.

1. It's so f'ed up how he can (and apparently the GOP overall) can just broadcast their schemes

like pulp villains monologuing and it seems to just get a pass.

[C_U_L8R]

2. Money can't buy everything

We'll soon see if it will buy Supreme Court Justices.

[bluestarone]

4. THAT will be what we will see. (Can money buy everything)

If the SC. hands him the victory, then that's the answer! Next question is, WHAT will take place? Best answer to me is BLUE WAVE, because i really DO NOT want it put in the hands of the SC!

[C_U_L8R]

8. It all depends on us.

There can be no doubt. It's up to us and our blue wave.

[tinrobot]

6. He trades in dirt as well.

I wonder what sort of dirt he has on his justices.

[LiberalArkie]

36. It bought Justice Kennedy

[mdbl]

3. All I can say is.l

what an ASSHOLE!

[tinrobot]

5. He takes everything to court. It's all he knows.

I honestly don't think it will work this time.

[StClone]

7. Tweet says it all!

this is a fake tweet

[elleng]

17. JOKE????

[StClone]

21. Disclaimer below tweet is that it is fake

[elleng]

22. Thanks.

[KS Toronado]

28. It does sound like something he would tweet though, how his small brain thinks.

[elleng]

30. zacly

[Bayard]

20. Is this for real???

Egads!

[StClone]

23. A Fake Tweet is hard to tell from his real tweets

Disclaimer below tweet indicates it is a fake!

[fleur-de-lisa]

26. No.

[paleotn]

45. Yea, Don Don. Whatever.

Meanwhile, in the land of reality.....

[malaise]

9. Lock up this fucking mobster

That is all

[tulipsandroses]

10. Haha LOSER LOSER! Your usefulness to the GOP is over. Time's up. You played yourself

You probably should have held out for nominating a justice until after the election. Give them something to keep you around for. Your tweets have no power anymore. Buh,bye.

[elleng]

11. I'd like to see entire quote, and hope it makes nation-wide headlines.

[AmericanCanuck]

12. John Roberts cares about his legacy

He will never do anything egregious or his name will live in infamy.

[elleng]

14. HOPING this holds.

[CaptYossarian]

29. Like with the Voting Rights Act?

Sorry, John. You can kiss RuPaul on the mouth in Times Square with 100 TV cameras nearby, but you cannot possibly gain my trust.

[erronis]

32. Dunno. Anthony Kennedy appeared to sell out his seat for 4F-beer-bong-Kavanaugh

I'm sure there were some whips and carrots involved.

The FedSoc, Opus Dei, and others are pretty damned pushy and might resort to veiled threats.

[notinkansas]

35. Bush v Gore was absolutely egregious,

and he certainly was involved in that.

[Lucky Luciano]

42. No...Bush appointed Roberts.

[notinkansas]

56. Huh? Yeah after Roberts helped to

hand the election over to him.

[beachbumbob]

13. the worse MISTAKE TRUMP/GOP can do is this kind of tweet, this forces Roberts and

either Alito or Gorsuch to align with the 3 liberal judges out of PURE fairness and the court integrity. John Roberts is NOT A POLITICAL HACK and this is 100% INSULT to him DIRECTLY

[elleng]

16. Would be a surprise to see Roberts joined by alito in this; gorsuch more likely, imo.

[IronLionZion]

31. It would be sweet to see a Trump appointed Gorsuch vote against him

There's hope for Gorsuch to do the right thing. Meanwhile, I'm hoping for a big decisive win so that it doesn't go to the courts.

[MyOwnPeace]

47. I TRULY believe.......

THIS is the BEST way to get it done - kick ass in the elections and there can be no doubt!

[IronLionZion]

53. I think we'll have the votes

it may take a while to count all the mail in ballots in some states so he'll be bloviating about fraud in the meantime. But in the end we should have a big enough win to overcome any doubts.

[MyOwnPeace]

54. I'm with 'ya, Iron!

Yes, I agree that they'll "sludge" the system for a week or two, but come January 20, Joe's gonna' start getting things right!

[cab67]

49. On the other hand -

If it's 6-3, with only the Trump appointees dissenting, we'd have some serious ammo to justify expanding the court.

[MyOwnPeace]

55. Yes, but......

if they have the need to make a ruling - and it's not gonna' be a good one - ain't no way we're expanding the court for WAY TOO LONG!!!!!

[Lucinda]

15. KNR

[Nevilledog]

18. I prefer to think of him as the villain doing his monologue right before he's destroyed.

[brush]

19. Pls show the tweet, or at least the full wording.

[cayugafalls]

24. The tweet.

25. We don't need a Blue Shift, we need a Blue Tsunami.

Anything less and he takes it to court, hell he may even take it to court anyways.

[paleotn]

46. He can only take narrow, specific issues to court....

" I lost the election " is not a narrow, specific issue.

[bucolic_frolic]

27. The resulting meltdown would cripple everything

I doubt people would accept it. It's just nonsense.

[warmfeet]

33. Throw his ass in prison.

Never let him, or his minions, out.

[nwliberalkiwi]

34. Doubt It Will Happen But...

The Revolution will be on!!!

[lindysalsagal]

37. Threatening the scotus should be immediate grounds for disqualification

I hope the new dem senate writes such laws, including election tampering: mailed or otherwise.

[Rott Weiler]

38. C'mon, folks

One, Trump talks out his ass; Two, he’s a sadistic fucker and is poking us with a stick. Don’t fall for this.

[jonstl08]

39. Legacy of the Court

Roberts more than likely will join the liberals if it came down to this because in my opinion he would care about his legacy.

[bucolic_frolic]

41. You think legacy matters to these people?

watch your back pocket

[cab67]

50. Roberts has shown some concern for this in the past.

Moreso than the other Republican appointees.

[Lucky Luciano]

43. We need more than Roberts in a 6-3 majority!

[jonstl08]

52. I know

I know we need more than Roberts but anything can happen.

[bucolic_frolic]

40. This will change when people take a Sharpie to everything they sign

to alter the terms in their favor. Because that's what you have here. To Trump everything is a negotiable right of privilege.

Wouldn't we all like that?

Contract? Sharpie. Mortgage? Sharpie. Supreme Court? Sharpie!

[paleotn]

44. Always remember. And this has been proven time and again....

98% of what he blabbers on about means nothing, isn't going to happen and is just the ruminations of a crazy old man. SCOTUS can rule on very narrowly defined issues. They are most certainly NOT going to grant him the presidency by court edict. Isn't going to happen. Period.

[Illumination]

48. This impeached mob boss must feel somehow he has special privileges. Maybe that's why he's

supposedly hurting for money. He's paying them off...

[dchill]

51. Saying the quiet part out loud makes it legal.

According to Hoyle, I guess.
