On one hand, I think Biden's team is right to not get involved

[grumpyduck]

in all this election bullshit. Let the courts decide the lawsuits and keep letting Rudy make an ass of himself and his ambulance chasers. Keep out of it.

On the other hand, I have to believe that his team has measures in place to do something if push comes to shove, and that they're waiting and hoping they don't have to go there.

1. try and avoid the supreme court if possible nt

[grumpyduck]

2. Oh, I don't think they'd go to SCOTUS.

3. It wouldn't surprise me

if the conservanazis would call on their armed supporters to do something foolish.
They are idiotic enough to do it.

4. Ignoring it publicly

and continuing to act as though things are *normal* and on track for President-Elect Biden to assume the office in January is probably the best bet and doesn't lend any credence or legitimacy to Trump's efforts to discredit the outcome. Thankfully, the media and vast swaths of the country have accepted the results and moving on from Trump and recognize the legitimacy of Biden's win and are dismissing the efforts by Trump, et. al to overturn or discredit the results.

5. Democrats in Michigan are involved...

voters and lawyers. The Biden campaign legal team will get involved if the situation calls for it, like they did in PA, but I doubt it will be seen on a tv screen.

6. His lawyers are in involved

7. I know I have no business giving Biden and Harris advice, because IMO they

are doing a spectacular job under extraordinary and unprecedented pressures.

But I sincerely wish Biden would make a statement at least saying "We will remove any person that Trump burrows into one of our agencies, regardless of rules or protections, because he is making these changes in bad faith for the sole purpose of sabotaging an incoming administration."

I wish he would prepare the way to kick these people out, let anyone who is not paying attention understand the purpose of Trump's moves, and make it clear he won't allow them to remain in place. They are "moles" intent on destroying the Biden/Harris administration.

Just my opinion.

10. It's better he plays his cards close to his vest.

There are a lot of things he can and can't do about the moles. If he wants to fire them, he will have to go through a legal process. It's easier to sideline them. They keep the title, but their work goes to someone else, so they just quit. Trump did this a lot. In either case, you don't want to telegraph your moves to the people who would be affected.

8. Why do you imagine they're not getting involved? Because they don't hold press conferences?

They're involved in all of the court cases as an interested party.

[grumpyduck]

9. Involved publicly.

I wasn't clear in the OP.

They're not playing the same games as the GOP.

[marylandblue]

11. It's assymetric warfare. We can't play the same games as Trump.

You can't defeat him directly by arguing in public. All it does is give him more chances to lie. So it's better to just ignore him and do your job.
