Will the Supreme Court do what Rudy wants?

It would appear that Rudy Giuliani would not be too disappointed if - as expected - he gets nowhere with his current court case in Pennsylvania that seeks to overturn the election region in that state (sorry, that should be commonwealth!). This would give him the excuse he needs to appeal to the Supreme Court, where he and Donald are confident of getting a more sympathetic hearing. After all, the Republicans rushed the appointment of Amy Barrett through just in time for the election, and why else would they have done so if they did not foresee the need to make use of her support? Some would argue that this was always what Trump and Co had in mind. Donald had long stated that the only way he could lose was if the Democrats stole the election, and he made sure of an insurance policy so that he could not possibly lose, despite what all the opinions polls might have predicted. They stole the election, Rudy will plead, and the Republican majority on the Supreme Court will duly accept what he says. But will they? I take the view that this is a false assumption to make. You have to look very carefully at exactly who these judges are. They are all highly experienced and very highly qualified legal experts - among the best legal brains in the United States. They may indeed have been appointed by a President of a particular political persuasion and confirmed by a Senate that agreed with that President's choice, but why does that imply that they will automatically follow what is wanted by that President? In other words, a judge has integrity. He or she will consider evidence and make a decision based on that evidence. Their own political leanings will play a secondary role, and they are in no way beholden to the whims of the President who appointed them. They are appointed for life and cannot be fired, however contrary to a President's wishes their decisions might be. I wonder if Rudy Giuliani and Donald Trump have forgotten this?
