Here is what I find most comforting about the "Will Trump pull a coup?" situation: he does not have the support of the GOP legal establishment. Yes, GOP Senators are recklessly supporting him as he refuses to concede, but the GOP is not sending him their best legal support.

There are dozens of very talented (albeit evil) GOP lawyers who would be happy to take on this cause if they saw it as a winning fight. The Bush v. Gore team was the creme de la creme of assholes bred by the Federalist Society.

Who does Trump have? Guiliani ranting in a parking lot while wedged between a dildo shop and a crematorium. Oh, and Bossie, who doesn't even have a legal degree.

The GOP is *not* sending their best.

They know the path is implausible.

Overturning the results in PA is a path riddled w/ difficulty. But even if that *were* w/in the realm of possibility, guess what? We won AZ too.

Overturning the results in *multiple* states is just not going to happen.

What the GOP is doing now is still dangerous, though. It's just that the end-goal is not a coup. If it were, we would see the legal wheels turning and that's just not happening.
