| #10 ^It's group dynamics Abu. In-group status is everything. |

| #9 I also believe they knew that higher court rulings would go against their lawfare but they figured it was worth it if it generated bad publicity for Trump and cost him big bucks for his legal defense. Whoopi Goldberg on The View got to holler "Guilty!" thirty-four times and they all thought that was wonderful. Soft-headed, gullible women who watch that show were all convinced that it was the truth and they'll never hear about the civil penalty getting tossed. The same goes for the suits against his executive orders but the object there is to obstruct as much as possible. |

| #8 Have you considered the theory that these people are simply crazy? I think they're sociopaths. I don't know if that's considered crazy or just reptilian. |

| #6 Crazy doesn’t get you elected. It does if your constituency is crazy. |

| #5 Crazy doesn’t get you elected. She’s evil and manipulative. Luckily she is not a criminal mastermind. |

| #3 She banked on the fact that the SCOTUS would not a state law case and that every level of tge NY judiciary would be totally corrupt. Her odds were not zero. Probably should not have picked a mortage deaud case all things considered. She may have wiped out half of Congress by the end of it. |

| #2 ...They knew perfectly well that it was going to be thrown out by an even vaguely unbiased court - but DJT wasn't supposed to win. He was supposed to quit the race, get a case of the dead, or be cheated out of a victory. Mike |
