    Well almost zero of Trumps 2020 election lawsuits met even the low bar of proceeding to discovery, and were dismissed outright, including 30 lawsuits that were dismissed after a hearing on the merits. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-election_lawsuits_related_to_the_2020_U.S._presidential_election) So when you said, “presented before a judge” I took you at your word. What you should have said was “proceeded to trial” because that’s when you do all the swearing in. Or depositions- but that’s part of discovery, which this suit about the 2024 election is already in, so technically if there are any depositions taken, people are already swearing oath right now. So I guess by either definition this trial is one to take seriously.
