Until the money is gone.
Then they’ll say so long.
And leave him standing all alone.
Alone and crying.
Crying.
Cryyyyying.
We need to have a reporter ask “Mr. Pillow” if he blames himself for not doing a better job of contingency planning.
How many state Attorneys General DID sign on to his petition?
Seeing as he hasn’t filed it and he’s loudly wondering why he can’t get them to sign on, my WAG is “none”.
He’s posted his “lawsuit”, entitled “STATE OF [INSERT YOUR STATE] v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, VICE- PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES; SPEAKER OF THE UNITED STATES HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES, PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE OF THE UNITED STATES SENATE, STATE OF ARIZONA, STATE OF GEORGIA, STATE OF MICHIGAN, COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, AND STATE OFWISCONSIN”, on his website. Read if you dare.
Some analysis from a real law-talking guy;

You are probably correct but I do think there may be a chance, albeit remote, that he may have Ken Paxton, AG of Texas, signed on. Paxton is a crook and nut job who is running for reelection while under indictment and investigation by the Feds. I can see Paxton thinking this may be a good strategy to keep the Trumpets in his corner for the primary.
From what I’m reading on Law Twitter, the main thrust of Lindell’s suit is identical to the one Paxton used (and may have been written by the same lawyer) when he tried to sue the states last year, which the Supreme Court denied for lack of standing. Filing the same suit twice doesn’t sound like a smart move to me.
Ken Paxton is not one known for making smart moves.
That first page was enough to reduce Mike Dunford (aka questauthority on Twitter) to helpless tears of laughter at the end of his Twitch stream tonight.
This line is going into my arsenal of quips.
It’s like a turducken, but all turd and no duck.
And fucked in the head.
In this case he has the advantage of being able to say “I already tried that, back when it would have counted”.
Baader-Meinhof Syndrome at work here: this is the second thread in a row I’ve read that contains the word “turducken”.
Must be the holiday on everyone’s mind.
Just for laffs, I’d like to see Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and/or Wisconsin sign onto his lawsuit. What would happen then?
Not good enough. If they didn’t vote for Trump at least twice, then they are complicit.
Election fraud doesn’t count when Republicans do it.
