Texas sued a bunch of other states to try to throw out millions of legitimate votes. The Supreme Court unceremoniously threw that lawsuit out of their jurisdiction. They wouldn't even hear the suit because it was so ridiculous. Even Trump's appointed justices (Gorsuch, Kanvanaugh, Barrett) voted against hearing it.
Huge slap in the face for Trump. It is time to just graciously concede.
President-elect Joe Biden forges ahead with transition plans as President Trump refuses to concede and keeps losing election-related lawsuits. Follow here for the latest.

This is so ridiculous, why can't that 'little child' just say, 'I lost?'

In hindsight, I think even the Democrats and liberals are happy he got “his” Supreme Court.
Because that makes this that much funnier!
EDIT: Oh, in related news, I read that there may be action taken against some of Tr*mp’s lawyers for the frivolity of the cases.
Can you say “disbarment”?

@FourWalls I'm not exactly happy with his judges but I am very happy they all voted against him. And many of his appointees in lower courts have ruled against him and I got a lot of enjoyment out of that, too.

@FourWalls I'll have to research that one. Of course I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it. Are you saying it really trumps Trump? Send me a reminder. I'm off to get sushi and miso soup (middle-class American privilege, I know).

I am so surprised. Rudy was so sure of this working.
I wonder what Plan B is.

I am amazed at how many Republicans are backing him.

Hillary Clinton is still complaining 4 years later for losing the 2016 election.... Sounds familiar.
On a New York Times podcast, Hillary Clinton continued lamenting her 2016 loss, and claiming she was "born" for the presidency.
