Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled in favor of the U.S. on November 3. A day after dropping a lower court order to prevent the state from certifying the results from the by-elections, Donald Trump rebuked the judges’ decision.
Saturday’s case – which sought to throw 2.5 miles of mail in the crucial state – is the culmination of dozens of failed lawsuits filed by Trump’s lawyers, with judges suing their lawyers for failing to present evidence of fraud.
With certified results from the states, Trump has always had a downward path to contesting elections, as Biden moves forward with preparations for his inauguration as president on January 20 and recruits a team for his administration.
However, in his first media appearance since losing his Democratic rival’s presidential race on Sunday, the president called Fox News to blame the courts for his campaign’s so far failed legal challenges, based on a series of scandalous conspiracies accusing widespread voters. Fraud.
“We are not allowed to put our evidence. They say you don’t have to stand up, “Trump told Fox’s Sunday Morning Futures.
“We have an affidavit, we have a hundred and a hundred affidavits,” Trump said, adding that they “filed a great, big lawsuit” without giving any details to the “tremendous proof” attorneys.
In the 20 days since the polls closed, Republican and Trump campaign officials have leaned on claims without evidence that some states allowed voters to cast ballots after election day.
His interview comes after weeks of legal challenges to the Trump campaign in battlefield states, including Pennsylvania, where an internal lawsuit was filed months after legislation challenging Pennsylvania’s years-old mail-in voting law.
The federal appellate court rejected a separate challenge to Pennsylvania’s outcome from Saturday’s defeat, and upheld the district judge’s decision, citing the president’s evidence-free and erroneous lawsuit as “Frankenstein’s monster.”
The president’s legal team, led by former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, also sought recounts in states such as Georgia, Wisconsin and Michigan, alleging that the counting machines were rigged in an expanded plan that included the Department of Justice, FBI and the FBI.
But none of these claims are true. In fact, Trump’s own legal team has never formally challenged election results in any state court under fraud claims.
According to the Washington Post, the latest attempt involves attorneys in the campaign who describe – as Trump’s legal adviser – has become increasingly “upset.” A close adviser told The Post Trump was like “Mad King George” shouting at the White House, “I won. I won. I won.”
Milwaukee County, meanwhile, completed its count and certified its results on Friday, 10 months after Trump’s campaign there and two Democrats in the state with a large black population, Gusden County, requested a recount.
After receiving nearly 400 unaccounted ballots, Byden actually extended the margin of his victory – getting 257 extra votes out of the President’s 125 extra votes. Once Dan County certifies its results, the state will proceed with its final certification process.
In response, Trump tweeted that the recount was not an attempt to find errors in the numbers, but to “find those who voted illegally” – again inciting his campaign to notorious conspiracies to “get a lot of illegal votes.”
The outgoing president has yet to accept the 2020 election, as Biden, now president-elect, announces his cabinet appointments and his 100-day agenda.
After Biden crossed the 0th threshold – a lead of more than 5m – Trump sought to prove to Biden that the votes he received in the election were “not obtained illegally”, which no winning official is required to do before taking office. .
There have been a number or reports based on unofficial sources that Trump is weighing the race in the 2024 presidential election, including a report in the Daily Beast that he plans to announce his campaign during Biden’s inauguration.
