President Trump's lawyers just told the Third Cir. they plan to seek an emergency restraining order to block Pennsylvania from certifying its election results. 
This is something Trump could have done when it filed its appeal. Or yesterday. Or .....
Trump's legal team says that because of the " the extreme time pressures involved in drafting and filing all of the motions and briefs required," it should get to add 1,300 words to its brief.
Still no sign of the elite strike force.
Not a big thing, but the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure don't authorize temporary restraining orders. You can ask for an injunction while the appeal is pending. But not under the rules Trump's counsel cites.
