The Supreme Court will have to intervene in election contest to restore trust

 Terry Paulding: The best outcome for maintaining a constitutional America is for the Supreme Court to make a unanimous finding of fraud that allows it to remedy the current election outcome.  Otherwise, the Democrats will succeed with planned, blatant fraud to unseat President Trump, irrevocably destroying the necessary trust Americans must have in their political system.

The Muslim convert from South London is being held at the Administrative Maximum prison in Florence, Colorado, the only “supermax” jail in America. ... Perhaps he would have preferred Gitmo. Will we soon be seeing stories about the horrors of Supermax? Will the left treat it the way they did Gitmo. Probably so. They can't seem to take serious the threat these terrorist pose to this country.
