meIn the fight against his electoral defeat, US President Donald Trump harshly criticized this court after his setback before the Supreme Court. “This is a huge and scandalous judicial error,” Trump wrote on Twitter on Saturday. “The people of the United States have been betrayed and our country shamed.” The incumbent president once again affirmed that he had not lost the elections, but rather won with a “landslide victory.” There is no basis for this. President-elect Joe Biden, a Democrat, will be sworn in on January 20.
Trump sees himself stripped of his victory by election fraud. However, neither he nor his lawyers have provided convincing evidence. The Supreme Court had dismissed a case by the state of Texas against the result of the presidential election on Friday night. Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton wanted to overturn Biden’s victory in four other states. The Supreme Court said Texas has not explained why the state should have a legitimate interest in how other states conduct their elections.
“The Supreme Court really disappointed us. No wisdom, no courage, ”Trump wrote. He announced that he would continue to fight his defeat. “We started fighting !!!” Trump wrote in capital letters. Twitter provided several tweets from the president with warnings that the manipulation he alleged was controversial.
“A big disappointment!”
Trump also attacked the Republican governors of the states of Georgia and Arizona, Brian Kemp and Doug Ducey. They had opposed Trump’s efforts to counter Biden’s victory in their states. Trump wrote Saturday: “You have allowed the states that I easily won to be stolen. Never forget that, listen to her out of office! “
Trump also criticized Attorney General William Barr. The “Wall Street Journal” reported that Barr had known about the investigations against Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, since the spring. Barr wanted to keep this investigation out of the election campaign. Trump retweeted a Twitter message calling for Barr’s firing if the report was correct. The president wrote: “A great disappointment!”
The Texas lawsuit had no realistic chance. The same goes for Trump’s continued efforts to reverse the outcome after all. Trump’s camp has suffered more than 50 legal defeats so far, but he has yet to give up the fight. In no state did presidential supporters change the outcome of the November 3 elections.
The Supreme Court had just rejected a request for judicial protection last Tuesday, with which the Trump side wanted to annul the result of the elections in Pennsylvania. Critics see behind Trump’s refusal to acknowledge his defeat as an attempt to collect more donations from his supporters.
