Inaction.

If they'd have taken the case up and upheld the outcome but provided a legal/constitutional explanation, people would have accepted it. They would not have been happy (see Obamacare and gay marriage) but they would have accepted it.

They punted on standing because they KNEW there was no way they could have justified the results.

The contested states changed their election laws to allow mail-in ballots to be counted several days after election day without a vote by their state legislatures which is a violation of the Constitution of the United States as outline in Article 1: Legislation Branch Section 4: Elections

if they heard the case and decided an unfavorable outcome, at least they would have explained why

the "not my fricking problem, yall deal with it" approach is bullshite.


This is one of the challenges of conservatism versus liberal activism.

Liberal activist judges jump at the opportunity to influence law and set precedent (hence “activism”)

Part of being conservative is being selective about where the court chooses to engage to avoid setting precedent.

In other words, one side is playing the game. The other is walking off the field.

We need a bit of conservative activism to set some constitutional precedent.

Supreme Court Coward John Roberts damaged, well, everything. The legal system, the election system, the political system, any sense of right and wrong in a nation that is the last bastion of justice and freedom.

Why are liberal fascists such fricking abject LIARS? Complete and utter disregard for the truth. And you wonder why you have zero credibility.

This is a level that cannot be explained by normal biological processes. This is a screed that gives normal idiocy a bad name.

This is an idiocy on the level of a bad burger flipper trying to be a playwright writing an opus opera about idiocy and failing miserably to come close.

It's amazing how many people have an opinion about something all lawyers learn in their first year of law school. The Supreme Court lacked jurisdiction under the Constitution. It wasn't even a close call. It was a procedural decision.

All of the cases that were brought in the correct jurisdiction and forum were substantively dead on arrival because the legal arguments were so dumb or they couldn't satisfy the very low bar of presenting credible evidence.

I will see you that and raise you:

1) a career politician with 5 mansions
2) a racist - jungle, corn-pop and you ain’t black
3) a con man peddling his influence for profit, son of a b1tch they fired him!
4) a horrible father using his crack head son to peddle the influence
5) suffering from dementia, you know he is running for the Senate & doesn’t know his wife
6) last but not least a figure head because any person with half a brain cell can see his proposals (not his because he isn’t coherent) will cause sky high unemployment and inflation within the first year!

Roberts is truly a crook to the highest degree.

Trump needs to release whatever information he's privy to about him.

That’s not how it works with you fricktards.

Hearing the case would validate your conspiracy bs. You would all say “see, there is fraud they are taking up the case.”

But when you get the unfavorable outcome, it would be “these cuck judges Trump appointed are all deep state. Appoint a Congressional audit.”

Once that is in progress, “see, even Congress knows something is up.” Once that proves no fraud, it’s in to “Mitch McConnel is a b****”.

There is no amount of investigations, audits, rebuttals by judges...nothing will convince you that widespread FRAUD was non-existent. And the reason why, is because this narcissistic fool that somehow got voted into office, has told you all there is fraud, and that’s all that matters.

The US Supreme Court 9-0, no public dissents, back on December 12 rejected the State of Texas challenge to the US Election (100 Republican Congressman backed the Texas Challenge). So Alito and Thomas, Scalia clones (I am a big Scalia fan by the way, as while I am registered Independent, I am a Judicial Conservative), and 3 Trump appointees, 2 of them also Scalia clones, are now all "Deep State"

Trump should have conceded then. Of course people here are still going to by into Trump's conspiracy theory. I voted for Bush in 2000, that one was far closer than this one and came down to hanging chades in Florida. By a 5-4 vote, the Supreme court said enough is enough and I don't remember any Gore Supporters overrunning the U.S. Capitol when the Congress met to certify Bush 2's election in January of 2001.

I voted for the narcissistic Trump but this is all on him. He should have conceded the moment the US Supreme Court rejected The Texas challenge.

The Patek 5205G is not a $80k watch, more like $45k as long as you don't overpay and his is the less desirable gray version vs blue. I am significantly younger than him, haven't had near the legal career he has had and have multiple watches worth more than his annual calendar with 3 of those being Pateks. Now his $267k base pay is not significant for one with his background his career certainly supports a $50k watch with no funny business.

The court has been chugging along as normal considering the holiday season has been in between. They granted review in 14 cases just over a week ago. The court rolls on even though you haven't seen it with your "internet search".

There is no reason to drop all your woes at Roberts' feet he is one vote of 9 and SCOTUS justices are not afraid to vote against the majority and definitely not against the opinion of the Chief Justice. The only justices that felt compelled to hear TX v PA were Alito and Thomas and then specifically because they feel SCOTUS is mandated to entertain cases of Original Jurisdiction though by precedent they are not. Alito in particular has had the mandate to hear OJ cases as his pet project for years. Alito and Thomas gave a clear indication the outcome would have been the same even if the case were to have been entertained. I said from the beginning the court wouldn't hear TX v PA despite the wishcasting of some on my colleagues on here.

That is your assumption. But we will never know because YOU and the people you support have Zero Balls and refuse to even hear an opposing viewpoint or position. It is all sunshine for you now because the people you censor are your opponents but rest assured the pendulum will swing and those of you that truly believe what your party is doing will be very sorry you supported "MOB RULE" in 2020.

SCOTUS denied states rights to contest constitutional laws being broken in multiple states. So tired of hearing low IQ, 3rd World wannabes defending enough proof that should be lawful investigated & audited. If you want Venezuala or Cuba or China, pack your shite up and roll out. Get ready to go dumpster diving for your meals & get your “official grocery card” that gives you a designated day of the the week to go pick up a loaf of bread and some chicken broth. Fricking morons in this country.
Like I always say to uneducated citizens, please give me democratic policies that puts America & our citizens first.
Worried about some nee flu strain when we have 25-26 Veterans killing themselves every single day! Used to be 22’ish pre-Covid. We have a homeless problem but yet the communist democratic parts want more illegal immigration.
Trump has passed more pro-American, pro-minority and impoverished population polices than all democrats combined.
I could go on & on, people need to WTFU of GTFO of America, I’ll legit buy the 1-way plane tickets for some people and 1st week rent in Venezuala for you. Real talk.

Correct, you actually read what the Court said. So now all of the so called Constitutionalist or judicial originalist are railing against a 9-0 ruling. NINE to ZERO. How many times on issues like Health Care, immigration, taxes, privacy rights, religous liberty, do we have 5-4 cases. This was 9-0 and 3 Trump appointees ruled against the Texas case.

As you noted, Alito and Thomas, Bush2 and Bush 1 appointees, respectively, both agreed to hear the case orally but clearly said that based on the case filed, their ruling against it on legal grounds would have been the same.

Trump should have at that point said the top court in the land, by 9-0 ruled against the Republican challenge and he should have conceded then!
