Even beyond the strong Constitutionality questions, and Trump's team trying to make a path to SCOTUS with it, there are the massive frauds that haven't been addressed.

Don't listen to the Doomers. This isn't yet at the ammo box!

Why would all three of the justices Trump appointed vote against him?

Because they didn't judge the case by its merits, only by the injury caused to Texas (which was none, as Texas voters retained their franchise and will be represented).

This was 100% going to happen IMO, this is 500+ years of common law doctrine - parties who aren't injured can't sue.

That said, there needs to be a path for the states to initiate stuff like this because relying on the President and the Insurrection act as the ultimate backstop to corrupt states violating the Constitution is a poor way of doing things.
