There is a simple way to illustrate what is wrong with President Trump’s fusillade of legal challenges to Joe Biden’s increasingly apparent victory in the 2020 election: Just consider what is at stake in the case that has drawn the most attention. That is the Supreme Court case, in which Republicans are pleading with the justices to rule that Pennsylvania’s highest court unconstitutionally contravened state law by allowing ballots to be received for three days after Election Day.
That matter has riveted the attention of election watchers. It has gotten extensive national media coverage. The Trump campaign has talked it up as crucial. Trump supporters have good reason to believe that the law is on their side and that the president is likely to prevail if the Court agrees to hear the case.
