Thank you.
And could we also stop the poker references? Instead of “doubling down,” how about something accurate and less editorial – like Trump repeated the lie?

MAGA: slams itself into a wall
Us: Why’d you do that? I think I heard your ribs crack. You really ought to lay down. We’ll get you some help.
MAGA: It only hurts if you’re a beta male soyboy cuck! staggers to its feet, and bares its teeth. More than a few are missing and its mouth is bloody Get away from us with your socialism! It’s our right to slam ourselves into this wall until we get what we want! charges at the wall again

What’s the legal counter-strategy to keep this whole thing from going off the rails?

The corrupted court voted 6-3 to allow Youngkin’s illegal purge of voters.
This is a clear signal that they will side with Trump and they will declare him the winner.
