I guess we shoulda seen this coming. It goes to the Virgina State Supreme Court first. If Trump doesnt like their decision, can he take it to the SCOTUS? Or do they stay out of state elections?

So, the story about the Navy Secretary being fired was Kegsbreath didn't like that he had his own relationship with Trump and pitched the new "Trump Battleship" to Trump without having consulted with Kegsbreath. 

The new Navy Secretary is a wacko who was trying to be the congressman for my district last year.

Hearing on npr the dude that got fired sucked.   The replacement is crazy

[oblong]

With this admin there's two reasons people get fired and neither is good:

1) They're so bat**** crazy or the crimes so severe that even this group says "get them out of here"

2) THey refused to go along with some bat**** crazy idea

NPR is way behind. The presidential election was a long time ago.

Trump says he 'has to be careful' in rare health admission

Not much of an admission.  There are lot of people who wake up each morning hoping for the best news possible and then are sad until the next morning.

Hate to quibble with Ron on this one, but Trump never said he was going to hire the “most qualified” people. He said he was going to hire “only the best” people. I think we now fully understand what he meant by that.

States do have to conduct elections in accordance with the Constitution, so in that sense SCOTUS does have some jurisdiction over interpreting what that means. If the State Supreme Court overturns the election without a strong enough constitutional basis, SCOTUS can overturn their decision. That’s how it’s supposed to work, anyway.

Glad I got my money back out of them.

I don't want SCOTUS anywhere near this issue. I read the Virginia Supreme Court is conservative but one report i read said that it's a small c in conservative. Moderate conservatives? Is there even such a thing? 😆😆

Oh, right, I wouldn’t want this particular Court to weigh in on it, either. I’m talking about SCOTUS’s role in this on a theoretical basis.

But what i wonder is SCOTUS would even take it up? If they ruled Texas is allowed to rework their maps, wouldn't that set precedent? I just don't really understand if the vote by citizens of Virginia is going to be taken away. It seems unconstitutional.

He's doing great.  Remember when HW Bush posted during the 1992 election about how he was ambassador to the UN in 1970?  

Or, when Eisenhower bragged in 1957 about being on MacArthur's staff in the Philippines in 1935? 

Or, when Reagan bragged in 1981 about his time as SAG president in the late 1950s?
