Conservative Supreme Court

The Supreme Court's refusal to help Donald Trump change the result of the 2020 election should come as
no surprise for the very reason the president hoped to win the case: The court is conservative.

That means the three justices who owe their seats on the nation's highest bench to Trump, as well as others nominated by Republican presidents, profess adherence to the Constitution and the precise text of federal statutes. They don't just make stuff up.

So when Texas, backed by Trump and a cadre of Republican state attorneys general and members of Congress, asked the court to block election results from Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, it stood no chance of prevailing.

As they say, be careful what you wish for.
or
Payback is a bitch.
