Forgive a european for the strange question but doesn't this ruling cause a massive problem constitutionally?
Let's assume trump wins the rest of the cases in SCOTUS and gets reelected. Why wouldn't texas still want to secede?
Is there any way for SCOTUS to say "Whoops we were wrong" after the fact, or otherwise change this precedent, or will trump have to impeach 7 of the 9 justices to keep things from falling apart afterwards?
Texan here. The deal is that Texas has not been injured in fact as the electors have not yet been chosen. You can’t go to the court and ask them to do something based upon what might happen. It doesn’t work that way. The SCOTUS did not dismiss upon merit. It simply said that Texas had not yet been injured. Now, the Texas Attorney General and others likely knew this would happen, but apparently this is something that is done to signal to the court and others what is coming. Once the electors are selected, Texas can resubmit.
I don’t think it matters much anyway as I think the military is the answer. Followers of Q know that the military is the only answer as it is the only way to control the outcome. This plan was set into motion years ago and the outcome wasn’t going to be left up to the decisions of others.
Yep although I commented above. I believe your explanation is a far better one and is more accurate to US law.
I’m learning this stuff as fast as the rest of you. Ha!
Could you point me to more info on this? The court order was very brief and didn't mention the specific reason they had no standing.
