Republicans have enraged their constituents by signing on to the lawsuit that they knew was a joke. They’ve probably jeopardized their seats as calls are rising for the Home to vote to not seat them. They did all of it to feed Donald Trump’s delusions.
Trump by no means had an opportunity of profitable the Texas lawsuit. States cannot beneath the structure inform different states the right way to run their elections. States have the ability to find out how their elections are carried out. Trump can’t ask for votes to be thrown out as a result of he’s upset that he misplaced.
That isn’t how the constitutional separation of powers works.
By enabling Trump’s delusions, Republicans are each jeopardizing themselves and democracy.
This time democracy gained.
