They are just dragging this out as long as humanly possible in hopes that trump will win the election. It is kinda sad seeing how incompetent the US court systems have become. I know this is a very sensitive case, but the violence they fear will occur should be treated as the terrorism it is. We shouldn't have to worry about violent retribution from lead poisoned adults with guns if their god is not crowned king.

I've seen judges go off the handle for less stupidity.

Ahh, it's the old "you never prosecuted me for anything before, you can't start now" defense.

What do you mean I'm not allowed to walk into a bank with an assault rifle, start shooting around and demand all their money?

I'm innocent, nobody ever told me that was illegal!

Well that's not very Party Law and Order of you Donald

"I had no idea people would care about the law that much, because I don't."

So, the “whoops, my bad” defense now?

That's the Leader of the Law and Order Party!

The young children didn't have notice either when he had "sexual relations" with them at Epstein's mansion.

Nul n'est censé ignorer la loi

His lawyers know its not a good argument. The point isn't to win, it's just to stall as long as possible.

It's not like this is his first dealings with election recounts. He was involved with shutting down Jill Stein's attempts at recounts for the 2016 election.

In November 2016, a group of computer scientists and election lawyers including J. Alex Halderman and John Bonifaz (founder of the National Voting Rights Institute) expressed concerns about the integrity of the presidential election results. They wanted a full audit or recount of the presidential election votes in three states key to Donald Trump's electoral college win—Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania—but needed a candidate on the presidential ballot to file the petition to state authorities. After unsuccessfully lobbying Hillary Clinton and her team, the group approached Stein and she agreed to spearhead the recount effort.[74]

A crowdfunding campaign launched on November 24, 2016, to support the costs of the recount, raised more than $2.5 million in under 24 hours,[75] and $6.7 million in nearly a week.[76] On November 25, 2016, with 90 minutes remaining on the deadline to petition for a recount to Wisconsin's electoral body, Stein filed for a recount of its presidential election results. She signaled she intended to file for similar recounts in the subsequent days in Michigan and Pennsylvania.[77]

President-elect Donald Trump issued a statement denouncing the recount request saying, "The people have spoken and the election is over." Trump further commented that the recount "is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded."[78]

"Sorry officer, I didn't know I couldn't do that."

With all his whining about rigged elections he of all people should know you can't ask election officials to "find" you exactly the amount of votes you need to win that election.

Did he just admit to lacking common sense?
