On December 11, 2020 the United States Supreme Court rejected Donald Trump’s attempted coup d’ etat.
The Texas lawsuit basically argued that because of mail-in-voting, the results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin were rife with fraud and should be overturned, thereby giving the election to Trump. The lawsuit wanted the High Court to allow Texas to interfere with election procedures in four other states. In our democracy, each state has the constitutionally protected right to determine how it runs its own elections. All four states checked and re-checked their election procedures and vote counts for fraud substantial enough to change the election. They found none.
All 50 states certified their election results. More than 50 lawsuits attempting to overturn the election were thrown out of courts across the country. If the Supreme Court had agreed with the Texas lawsuit, it would have created a complete transformation of our democracy into an authoritarian state by a “small group”, i.e., a coup.
