Donald Trump has reacted with fury after the Supreme Court swiftly rejected a Texas lawsuit seeking to throw out voting results in four states.
The court’s decision on Friday deals Mr Trump a likely fatal blow in his long shot attempts to undermine faith in the election and have it overturned in his favour.
The president and his allies continue to baselessly accuse states he lost narrowly of committing mass election fraud, despite failing to provide any evidence.
“The Supreme Court really let us down. No Wisdom, No Courage!” Mr Trump tweeted shortly before midnight, before falsely claiming the election election was “rigged” and that he would “fight on”.
