‘Delusions of fools’: Conservative slams the GOP for ‘beclowning itself’
with a Supreme Court election case

トランプ支持であった保守系論客からの非難が

More than 16 Republican attorneys general in states that President Donald Trump
won in this year’s presidential election signed onto Texas Attorney General Ken
Paxton’s lawsuit asking the U.S. Supreme Court to throw out the election results
in four battleground states that Biden won: Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia and
Wisconsin. But some on the right are attacking the lawsuit as deeply flawed,
including radio host/blogger Erick Erickson ? who has been a Trump supporter
this year ? and Idaho Attorney General Lawrence Wasden.

Erickson is a far-right social conservative and evangelical Christian fundamentalist
who endorsed Trump’s reelection campaign, not a Never Trumper, a libertarian
or one of the people on the right who crossed party lines and supported former
Vice President Joe Biden. But on his blog, Erickson slams Paxton’s lawsuit
unmercifully, denouncing it as “one of the stupidest bits of performative leg
humping we have seen in the last five years.”

“These attorneys general are willing to beclown themselves and their states all
to get in good with the losing presidential candidate,” Erickson argues.
“The suit is absurd on its face. These states seek to interfere in the internal
affairs of other states when those states are not actually electing the president,
but allowing their voters to choose members of the Electoral College.
Were this to succeed, which it will not, the states will start suing each other
at every election as a bit of theater.”
