Bloomberg ' A federal appeals court rejected President Donald Trump’s attempt to revive a lawsuit in which his campaign was seeking to undo Pennsylvania’s certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the state. In yet another blow to Trump’s last-ditch effort to flip the election results, a three-judge panel resoundingly dismissed the campaign’s goal of striking out tens of thousands of ballots, saying there were no claims of fraud in the lawsuit, or proof.'
'The decision potentially tees the case up for the U.S. Supreme Court, and the president has openly mused that the 6-3 conservative majority could deliver the election to him. But most legal experts doubt the high court will take up a case where the evidence is lacking and which won’t change the race. Biden would still win the presidency without Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes, and Georgia, Michigan and Nevada have also certified results in his favor.'
'“Voters, not lawyers, choose the president,” the federal appeals court in Philadelphia said. “Ballots, not briefs, decide elections. The ballots here are governed by Pennsylvania election law. No federal law requires poll watchers or specifies where they must live or how close they may stand when votes are counted. Nor does federal law govern whether to count ballots with minor state-law defects or let voters cure those defects.”
In its ruling, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit took apart the Trump campaign’s legal arguments, as it refused to force the lower-court judge who dismissed the case to allow the campaign to file a revised complaint.'
'Trump is trying to invalidate tens of thousands of mail-in ballots and asking the appeals court for an emergency order blocking “the effects” of Pennsylvania’s certification of votes. Specific Allegations
”Free, fair elections are the lifeblood of our democracy,” the court said in an opinion written by U.S. Circuit Court Judge Stephanos Bibas, who was appointed to the bench by Trump. “Charges of unfairness are serious. But calling an election unfair does not make it so. Charges require specific allegations and then proof. We have neither here.”
Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis said in a tweet the campaign would appeal to the Supreme Court.'

Trump thinks everyone is crooked like him. Wrong, he thinks everyone is crooked BUT him.

Trump thinks he can do no wrong, even when he does wrong. It's like the Beat Farmers song. "Jim Beam's giving me the right to do wrong". Trump says "the Presidency is giving me the right to do wrong."

Trump says "the Presidency is giving me the right to do wrong." Yes, just review Nixxon’s famous interview with David Frost. “If the President does it, it’s not illegal”.

When you're drunk as a skunk, the Trump BS almost makes sense.
