>> None of whom voted to hear the case. So, why would you say this?

I have not tried to explain why the Court did what it did. They may believe there is another opportunity coming, they may have just wanted Trump out because he is disruptive, I have no idea.

>> Even Thomas, in his dissent, said that Trump wouldn't have won if the decision had gone the other way - he'd still be a LOSER!

You are so shallow, Chris.

You clearly did not read the Thomas dissent. The final paragraph summarized it well:

"One wonders what this Court waits for. We failed to settle this dispute before the election, and thus provide clear rules. Now we again fail to provide clear rules for future elections. The decision to leave election law hidden beneath a shroud of doubt is baffling. By doing nothing, we invite further confusion and erosion of voter confidence. Our fellow citizens deserve better and expect more of us. I respectfully dissent."

Simple truth is they decided to wait, again, and see whether after stealing the election from Trump, the ship would right itself. It is a mistake and this dissent is going to stand the test of time far better the the refusal to grant cert.
