Delusional Trump Says He’ll Waste ‘125%’ Of His Energy Into Already Low Energy Election Lawsuits | Talking Points Memo

125% of his energy? Is that the same amount of energy O.J. Simpson swore he would put into finding the ‘real’ killers?

A politician who doesn’t promise “one thousand percent” isn’t really trying.

If you’re in the hundreds range then you’re stuck in OJ territory.

I don’t know if he believes this on any level, or if it’s just to keep the grift going. But I sure as hell believe he doesn’t understand what his lawyers tell him.

he nonsensically fumed that courts should’ve swayed the election results in his favor simply because he’s still in office.

When you’re a star, they let you do it, right?

His broken mentality will not accept the loss. If it does he’ll come completely apart.

You have until December 15, motherfucker, and then you mentally sink or learn to swim. I vote sink - you can’t learn.

While Trump claims massive fraud, his lawyers state no fraud.

Not mentioned enough:

Pro tip. It usually costs money to file a civil suit, like several hundred bucks in federal court. But if you say you don’t have any money, the filing fee can be waived! And let’s face it, the Trump campaign is broke, or at least looted.

“I’m going to use 125% of my energy to do it,” Trump said, when asked if he believes that he can prove his baseless claims of votes being tossed.

Trump, who voted by mail in the election…

Um, no he didn’t. He voted in person this year. Early, but not by mail.

Still illegal, however, since he’s not a resident of Florida. He belongs to a club in Florida. He even controls the corporation that owns it. But it’s not a residence. It would be like a member of the Walton family claiming a Wal-Mart in New Hampshire as his legal residence.

And after Dec 15 what might we see? R’s need to step up and remove him from any ability to sink us even lower with more irreparable damage.
