“We are not done yet, believe me,” Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor who led Trump’s legal team, told Newsmax. “The president’s response is to consider other options.”
Giuliani said the Supreme Court dismissed the Texas lawsuit on the basis of legal status rather than actual facts. He said lower courts can pose challenges related to elections.
“This is an option we must try,” he said. “Nothing can stop us from bringing these cases to the district court immediately. In the district court, the president will certainly be eligible. Some voters are also eligible because of their Constitution. Rights have been violated.”
Team Trump attorney Jenna Ellis (Jenna Ellis) said: “We still have time.”
He said that before Congress officially counts electoral college votes on January 6, Trump’s legal team still has time.
“That day in January. It was a day of utmost importance. And the Supreme Court has recognized it,” he said. “We still have time, and state legislatures have time to do the right thing. They can ask, they can. Holding hearings can remove their representatives. They must. I hope that all the evidence we present at these hearings will inspire you and give you the courage to act. “
Ellis said that what is happening now is the “moral failure” of the three government departments.
“First of all, the administration. The problem is that they changed the electoral rules. We know that we have clear proof of this,” he said.
“Then comes the state assembly. In the undecided states, there are quite a few state legislators who want to do the right thing. They want to exercise the power of article 2 of the Constitution, but the leadership has consistently refused to do what is appropriate in the Constitution.
He said the Supreme Court decision appeared to be a “political impulse.”
“I think it’s shocking how they can get past this. I think it’s morally outrageous,” he said.
“I believe that no matter what the outcome is here, we will continue to do the right thing,” Ellis added, “President Trump is courageous. He stands by the point of view of truth, constitution and electoral integrity. This will always be a battle. worth fighting for. “
The two attorneys also asked the Supreme Court to have the courage to allow hearings on the lawsuit.
Giuliani said: “The worst part is that basically the court is saying they want to stay out of it. They don’t want to give us a chance for a hearing. They don’t want the American people to hear these facts.”
“This is a terrible, terrible mistake. Unless it is resolved, these facts will continue to be an open scar in our history. They need to be heard, they need to be spread and someone needs to decide whether they are true or not.” Some courts must have the courage to make this decision. “
“If voter fraud is not just breaking out, stop these behaviors, and that fraud will continue to occur,” Giuliani said. “If we don’t stand up, if we allow the big media and big tech companies, as well as Democratic politicians and the elites in Washington are changing on this issue and voter fraud will only get worse and worse.”
“This must stop, and I think the only person who has the courage to stand up is Donald Trump,” he said.
Before the court order was issued, Trump wrote on Twitter: “If the Supreme Court shows great wisdom and courage, the American people can win the most important case in history and our electoral process will be respected again.”
In the lawsuit, 19 Republican state attorneys support Texas. The states they represent are Missouri, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklaho Massachusetts, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, Arizona and Alaska .
After the Supreme Court order was issued, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who filed the lawsuit, issued a statement calling the decision “unfortunate.”
“Unfortunately, the Supreme Court has decided not to accept this case and does not confirm that these four states do not comply with the constitutionality of federal and state electoral laws. I will continue to work tirelessly to defend the integrity and security of the elections, and will leave it up to those who annul the rules established for their own benefit The people of the electoral law have the responsibility, “he wrote.
