We had them ready. They\u2019re just a version of the one that was brought in the Supreme Court. So last night, the president made the decision,\u201d\u00a0Rudy\u00a0Giuliani said during an appearance on \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/SZAZeyzUggI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">War Room: Pandemic<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Texas filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court against Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Michigan, alleging the elections there were run contrary to the Constitution. The nation\u2019s top court\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/supreme-court-rejects-texas-election-lawsuit_3615058.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">rejected the suit<\/a>\u00a0late Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s team is going to file suits or has already filed in the four states as well as Arizona and Nevada. The suits will incorporate allegations in the complaint filed by Texas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the state doesn\u2019t have standing, surely the president of the United States has standing. And certainly the electors in the states have standing. So they will be bringing those very cases right in those courts, starting today,\u201d Giuliani said.\u00a0\u201cAnd let\u2019s see what excuse they can try to use to avoid having a hearing on that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Courts have been using the matter of standing to dodge facing the facts, he alleged, adding, \u201cNobody wants to face the reality that this election was stolen.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3597520\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/img.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/uploads\/2020\/11\/29\/Giuliani-Jenna-Ellis-1200x675.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-slb-active=\"1\" data-slb-asset=\"1427263890\" data-slb-group=\"17064\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy size-large wp-image-3597520 ll-init ll-loadstarted ll-loaded\" src=\"https:\/\/img.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/uploads\/2020\/11\/29\/Giuliani-Jenna-Ellis-1200x675.jpg\" alt=\"Giuliani, Jenna Ellis\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-src=\"https:\/\/img.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/uploads\/2020\/11\/29\/Giuliani-Jenna-Ellis-1200x675.jpg\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>President Donald Trump lawyer and former New York City Mayor\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-rudy-giuliani\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><em>Rudy Giuliani<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0speaks to media while flanked by Trump campaign senior legal adviser Jenna Ellis (R) at a press conference at the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington on Nov. 19, 2020.

They haven\u2019t heard from a single witness. They haven\u2019t looked at a single tape. They haven\u2019t listened to a single recording. There are thousands of them. They haven\u2019t even bothered to look at the tape in Atlanta, Georgia, which is dispositive. It shows an ongoing voter theft of 30,000 votes, enough to change the election.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dozens of election-related lawsuits filed by Trump and others have been rejected in courts. Some were appealed. Other suits are still being decided.<\/p>\n<p>Surveillance footage from State Farm Arena showed poll observers being led to believe that ballot counting was ending around 10:30 p.m. on election night.

Trump won all but Nevada in 2016.
