I don't think you realize the flood gates that would open if the Supreme Court even hear this case, let alone rule how you want them. It would mire pretty much every election in states suing other states over the results.
For example, in 2018 the courts ruled that the Republican majority legislature of Pennsylvania violated the law in the 2016 election by drawing districts that unfairly favored Republicans. Should Democrat states be allowed to sue Pennsylvania to have those results overturned? What's to stop all the Democrat states from suing every Republican state after every election on grounds that their districts may be illegally gerrymandered?
In no world does the Supreme Court rule in favor of Texas in this case. If they did it would be giving all election authority from here on out to the courts completely tearing up the Constitution.

Those votes which were illegal need to be tossed.

Why should everyone be disenfranchised by a system wide open to fraud and shielded from public scrutiny?
"I'm no lawyer, but I suspect the Supreme Court swats this away. From the brief, it looks like a fella begging for a pardon filed a PR stunt rather than a lawsuit—as all of the assertions have already been rejected by federal courts and Texas' own solicitor general isn't signing on," Sasse told The Washington Examiner on Thursday
The problem here is a direct refusal to see and to admit that Biden did not fairly get that many votes, that it was done by fraud because they knew Trump was winning. It’s why they had to stop the count overnight so they could bring in fake ballots behind the scenes and throw out Republican poll watchers. Why so many are defending this is truly a travesty, it’s like a brainwashing or a strange virus, and oh yah they used the virus as a pretext for the fraudulent mail in voting. This is really serious and the fact that people want it not to be true and refuse to see it is really scary.

You really think this will happen?
If the Supreme Court does the unthinkable and invalidates several states, do you think the will declare the guy who has 8 million less votes the winner?
Imagine if the Republican candidate had 8 million more votes, you would say suck it up liberal snowflakes you lost, add insults.....
As I said before, the cognitive dissonance on display is incredible. Surely some are using this site as a good study on the behavior.
If Trump needed a pardon it. An only be because of the hateful attacks on him, as he has done nothing wrong. It’s the Biden’s snd the Pelosis and the Schumers who ate the crooks. It’s so sickening I don’t know how anyone can stomach what is happening to our Republic, but it’s definitely a communist coup so if you are for it... do I need to spell it out more?

Some of us already knew this, but it is worth posting again. It explains the hypocrisy of the lawsuit.
The real reason Paxton filed the lawsuit:
GOP Senator Ben Sasse Suggests Texas AG Looking for Trump Pardon With SCOTUS Lawsuit

They are taking the case as I posted, and Ted Cruz is on board to argue the case. He is seriously one of thee best lawyers. Have you heard him filibuster ?

Let's be honest here. Why does anyone think the SC will even consider taking the case, much less whiz all over the rights of states to conduct elections as their legislators and officials (both Dem and Rep) see fit?
There is a better chance of Tom Petty suddenly appearing from beyond the veil and singing, presumably for the Constitution, "Dont Do Me Like That".
It's not going to happen.
