Trump Attacks Supreme Court Over Mail-in Ballot Ruling

The former president took to social media to voice his frustration, arguing that the court’s latest stance on election procedures serves to undermine the country’s democratic integrity. While he reserved praise for conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, labeling them 'legends' for their dissenting votes, he suggested the remaining bench has failed to meet his expectations.

At the heart of the controversy is a Postal Service mandate designed to tighten the handling of mail-in ballots. Critics of the measure argued that the changes risked disrupting legitimate voting processes, a concern that ultimately influenced the court's refusal to intervene. Despite a track record of rulings that have frequently aligned with Republican interests, this latest decision has ignited internal friction, highlighting the growing tension between Trump and the judicial branch he helped reshape.
