Why do the courts play this silly delay game on a case that only has one >side.
trump claims he can do anything he wants as prez. That's ridiculous. If
that were the case, Joe Biden could have him arrested, could confiscate
his assets, and then shoot him to death.
I can see giving the plaintfiff some time to file arguments, but we all
know there are no good arguments. So why does the news say that, IF
they act quickly, they can have a decision in 2 weeks. Why should it
take more than 2 days?
Why did the USSC deny cert. Do they imagine that the appeals court will
find some good argument that they can't find? Or are they trying to
delay things so that he'll be nominated and elected berfore the trial?

Maybe because the USSC has its own workload and backlog of cases to
get through, including the likelihood of having to take the Colorado
primary ballot case on an expedited basis. The SC can't take every
case, and the normal procedure is to let cases play out in lower
courts before they step in.

Now that's just wrong. Up to the middle or late part of the 20th century,
the Supreme Court was taking about 100 cases per year. These days it's
about half of that. They could do a lot more than they are currently
doing.
