It somewhat upsets me that people even consider the "trump takes this to the supreme court" scenario to be realistic. It's about as realistic as "trump pulls a gun on Barron and says he'll only let him go if America lets him be president for four more years."
There's no legit legal basis we know of for invalidating the Pennsylvania vote. Sure, I understand that we're all a bit traumatized from all the stunts trump has pulled in the past, but I feel like people end up legitimizing the absurd possibility of a supreme court ruling overturning a legitimate election.
So far, nearly every ridiculous attempt by trump's campaign to do something in court has failed. He also looks likely to lose by many states, not just one. And he's losing them by bigger margins than he won them in 2016.
I think the only legal challenge they could make is the validity of votes that were postmarked by the election date but came in after, but who the hell knows how many votes that is or if it will even come close to making a difference
