"If we win on Tuesday or -- thank you very much, Supreme Court -- shortly thereafter..."

Americans, please take this seriously:

Trump just said it at Reading PA rally:
“If we win on Tuesday or — thank you very much, Supreme Court — shortly thereafter…"

God we are so screwed.

I think maybe Gorsuch isn't as tainted as the other two.

The context here: Trump had just been (wrongly) blaming the Court decisions for us not having a winner on Election Night - in this line, he was sarcastically saying, like, thank you very much Supreme Court, we’ll now have to wait. Wasn’t saying Court would make him president.

Sequence: Trump had asked the crowd, wouldn’t you like to know the winner on Nov. 3? Then suggested it’s Supreme Court’s fault we might not. Then sarcastically said “thank you very much, Supreme Court,” we might have to wait until “shortly thereafter” until we find out we win.
