The Supreme Court on Friday rejected a bid from Texas' attorney general -- supported by President Donald Trump -- to block the ballots of millions of voters in battleground states that went in favor of President-elect Joe Biden.
The court's order, issued with no public dissents, to dismiss the challenge is the strongest indication yet that Trump has no chance of overturning election results in court, and that even the justices whom he placed there have no interest in allowing his desperate legal bids to continue.
The Electoral College will convene Monday to affirm Biden's win.
The lawsuit, brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a staunch Trump ally, sought to sue Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia and Wisconsin -- which all went for Biden -- and invalidate their election results. And this week, with his options narrowing, Trump, accompanied by the support of several Republican attorneys general and GOP lawmakers, cranked up pressure to have the Supreme Court weigh in.
We can choose to believe that the entire Judicial system from state to federal to SCOTUS is “ in on the deep state thingyâ€, and also all the state boards which certified the results, and also every govt agency which has done the same. We can, if we choose to keep racing down the deepest rabbit hole ever known. Many on here will never surface from that hole. Some will, and they will see the light of day again. No matter how staunch of a Republican you are, there comes a time. They die hards so far into the hole that they will never recover from it will now double down on their “theoriesâ€. One day, the real GOP will recover from this mess to lead the conservative cause in real ways, with platforms based upon, you know, reality. Those of you getting ready to rapid fire your conspiracy BS aka Sidney Powell crap.....you are not the future of the GOP. The GOP never had a chance with the likes of you types living in la la land. Real people with real thoughts living in the real world will take over now, tyvm. Your 15 sec of fame are done, fake GOP crazies who never could lead the party forward have seen their day, it was fun for you while it lasted though, I am sure of that.
