Didn't MTG also provide aid and comfort? Would love to see more lawsuits like this for other traitors.
Lots of people run afoul of 14A S3, and I would expect that once any of these challenges on its basis succeeds, the moves will begin swiftly to address Trump and others in many states.

Yeah, it's a habit I'm trying to break. People keep telling me that I have to watch out for 14A S3, but I just can't help occasionally committing a little light treason. 14AS3 is a constant topic around our dinner table, discussed only less than the merits of 26 U.S. Code § 36B of the US tax code.
Bravo. Your sarcasm’s so dry that I need a glass of water.
What's a little treason among friends, eh?
HERE WE GO
I really love them kicking each others in the balls. I need more popcorn, STAT!
Is there any possibility that this lawsuit is an attempt to get a favourable (to the republican party) ruling (that Trump can stand) by presenting a poor case and therefore blocking a properly prepared and presented case on the basis that it has already been ruled on?
I see what you're saying but he's only running in the swing states so it messes with Trump's chances. He's definitely an anti-trumper, imo.
They're not smart enough to do that.
My guess is that they'll try to get it tossed on the grounds that he's also running for President and this is a conflict of interest.
I think a lawsuit like this would have a much better chance of success if it were being filed by a secretary of state, an AG, or some other offical that doesn't have direct skin in the game.
Doesn't that show he's actively being damaged by Trump's running tho and this has standing? The recourse he's asking for is directly in line with that reasoning.
I didn't say it would make sense. I'm just saying that's what they're probably going to go with.
Three GOP is a joke
