On Friday, a federal appeals faced President Donald Trump campaign’s try to alter the result of the presidential race another blow, describing in a scornful suggestion that the Trump campaign’s lawsuit doesn’t have proof and its accusations in Pennsylvania ‘have no merit.’

The bench of 3 judges for the third United States Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Trump administration’s struggle to refile its lawsuit, mentioning that its accusations had already been refused by many state justices in Pennsylvania and the recent effort to recover them couldn’t be turned into a success theory.
Claims are serious but lack of evidences
Justice Stephanos Bibas, for the panel, wrote that claims of injustice are serious but calling the presidential election doesn’t make it so. He added that charges need particular allegations and then proof and they have neither here.
He also wrote that Trump campaign never accuses that any votes was fake or cast by an illicit voter. He continued that it never accuses that any defendant treated President Trump campaign or its ballots worse than it treated Joe Biden campaign or its ballots. Bibas said that calling something discrimination doesn’t make it so and the 2nd Amended Complaint still having basic defects, so conceding leave to amend would have been useless.
Rudy Giuliani is heading President Trump’s team, who filed the federal case in the previous week. Last Saturday, the claim was rejected as a lower court justice mentioned it ‘Frankenstein’s monster’ for acquiring poor legal theories.

President Donald Trump along with some of his associates have been pointing at the validity of the presidential election, describing it without evidence that it was fake and looking to use legal clashes to alter outcomes in key states.
On Wednesday, most recently, a few of Pennsylvania Republicans, including Rudy Giuliani joined the hearing, over Trump’s fake allegations of voting scam, in Gettysburg.
The bold worded opinion of Friday is the recent action from the federal and state judges, who have quickly and openly refused Donald Trump official campaign’s arguments, at that time embowelling it for not giving evidence to support the allegations.
The court described that the President campaign’s allegations have no merit and the number of votes it particularly challenges is much smaller than the roughly 81,000 votes difference. The court added that it never alleges fraud or scam or that any votes were cast by illicit voters. Moreover, flipping millions of mail-in votes would be severe and unprecedented, disenfranchising a massive swath of the electorate and disturbing all down-ballot races too.
