Understanding Trump's Alleged Intentions in the Texas Supreme Court Case

Recent rumors circulating on various conspiracy theory websites propose that Donald Trump may have some classified information related to the upcoming election that is soon to be revealed. However, Trump's latest statements regarding his intentions to intervene in the case brought by Texas to the Supreme Court regarding the electors in battleground states provide a clearer insight into his true intentions. Let's delve deeper into what these statements could mean.

Classification of Standing and Constitutional Context

Trump has mentioned that joining with Texas will give them standing in the Supreme Court. However, this assumption is fundamentally flawed. Firstly, it is important to understand that the Constitution clearly grants states the power to conduct their own elections. Additionally, Texas is not suing other states over elections in battleground states that made changes to their 2020 election due to Covid-19. This case will likely be denied by the Supreme Court since it is seen as nothing more than a legal equivalent of 'a flaming bag of dog shit.' The Supreme Court has put the case on the docket with no oral arguments scheduled, leaving it in a state of limbo to ensure that the Electoral College can convene on time.

Manipulation of the Judicial System

Some commentators suggest that Trump believes he can dominate the Supreme Court with his allies. He may think that he has three justices in his pocket, but such an assumption is unrealistic. It is known that only gangsters try to buy judges, and this tactic is not uncommon in the world of politics. Instead, Trump may be planning to submit a brief to the Court asking for permission to argue on behalf of Texas. This is a common practice in legal proceedings, where multiple parties, known as 'friends of the court' or amici curiae, file briefs of argument to provide additional insights on the matter.

Possible Brief and Its Purpose

Most Supreme Court cases have numerous 'interveners,' or 'friends of the court,' who file briefs despite not being parties to the case. These briefs are not uncommon and often provide additional perspectives and arguments on the issues at hand. It is possible that Trump is planning to use this mechanism to influence the court's decision indirectly. By submitting such a brief, he would be providing arguments that support Texas' position, potentially influencing the Court's deliberations.

However, it is crucial to note that the Supreme Court is independent and impartial. The outcome of the case will ultimately depend on the Court's interpretation of the Constitution and the evidence presented. Trump's attempts to influence the Court through his allies or by submitting briefs may be transparent but are unlikely to change the fundamental legal landscape of the case.

As the case progresses, it will be interesting to see how the Supreme Court handles the submissions and briefs, and whether Trump's strategies will have any impact on the final decision. Regardless of the outcome, this case highlights the ongoing tension and scrutiny surrounding the electoral process in the United States.

The key takeaway is that while Trump's intentions may be political and aimed at leveraging the Supreme Court, the outcome will ultimately be determined by the Court's analysis of the case based on legal principles and precedents.
