White House attorneys. They make a fair argument that the lawsuit is un-Constitutional. I know a lot of pedes will lose their shit over that, but they can't rewrite the Constitution at the last minute. Especially as it will have to go through SCOTUS, and we all know the result there.

We'll see. Everyone has turned on Pence, but I'm in wait and see mode. We'll find out on the 6th.

Yep. There's a lot of rush to judgement going on. Gohmert's case is a last minute Hail Mary that will most likely fail - but nobody was depending on this case to win, for the last couple of weeks.

I do tend to think it would have been better that Pence/White House attorneys could have just let the case fail on it's merits, or it's common for requests like this to be made when a case is clearly a waste of effort, and we just never hear about it, but have because this is so high profile.

The effort doesn't stop because this suit fails. Everything Rudy and the White House have been working on for weeks (and months, it seems) are still in play. We're getting down to the wire here, so I understand the freak outs, but I'm trying to stay calm and just try to be rational here. This isn't over by a long shot.
