Trump “Participate in the Texas presidential election complaint… 17 states also joined”

– US President Donald Trump announced on the 9th (local time) that he would participate in a lawsuit against the presidential election filed by the state of Texas.

“We (and many states) will join the Texas lawsuit,” Trump said on his Twitter today. “This is a big deal.” Our country needs victory!”

In the following tweet, “Wow! At least 17 states have joined Texas’ special lawsuit against the largest fraudulent election in US history.” “Thank you.”

President Trump appears to have participated in the lawsuit as an individual party to the presidential candidate. According to a 39-page complaint, President Trump “is a presidential candidate running for reelection and participates in lawsuits to protect special and practical personal interests.” As President Trump’s lawyer John Eastman wrote, “President Trump is trying to negate the victory of his presidential rival (Joe Biden) in the accused states,” CNBC said.

“The constitutional question is not whether the voters have committed fraudulent elections,” he said. “Whether state officials have violated the law to prevent fraud by systematically easing measures for voting integrity?” The strategy was also revealed.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the United States on the previous day, asking for the nullification of the election results in four key race states: Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Michigan. These are all places where President-elect Biden won with a slight margin.

Thereafter, the lawsuit filed by Texas was decided by the 17 states of the Republican dominant region, which President Trump won.

However, it is unclear whether this lawsuit will reverse the election results. The Supreme Court dismissed a lawsuit filed by a Republican lawmaker on the 8th to invalidate a ballot by mail in Pennsylvania. It was evaluated that the foot was stamped on the ax that President Trump believed in.

The Hill said that the Supreme Court did not say whether or not to hear the case, but many experts predict that the impact will not be significant. In particular, there have been criticisms that Secretary Paxton is politically using the lawsuit to promote individuals.

President Trump’s reelection camp, Republicans, and supporters have filed 50 lawsuits since the presidential election, and most have lost. Even in the case of winning, it was not to prove election fraud or reverse the election results, but to improve the accessibility of Republican observers.

Earlier, US Attorney General William Barr said he had found no evidence of any fraudulent elections that would change the outcome of last week’s presidential election.
