Welcome everyone to court side to discussion of the post-election litigation brought by Donald Trump.

0:05.0

It's day 63 after the election.

0:07.8

Yes, that's right. The election was nine weeks ago.

0:11.6

The litigation count has moved again with, yes, yet another Trump loss.

0:16.3

He's now one out of 63 cases and his one victory didn't get him any votes. So much winning,
