President Donald Trump on September 3 criticized the Missouri Supreme Court's ruling on redistricting, calling it "ridiculous" and "unconstitutional" in a post on X. The ruling, according to Trump, ordered the restoration of a congressional map from "a long time ago," which he described as "Ancient History." Trump cited legal scholars who said the ruling was "horrible, ridiculous, and unConstitutional," and noted that there would not be enough time to change the map before the upcoming election. He argued that Missouri should be allowed to use the map that was in effect just a few months ago during the primary election. Trump called the decision a "Dark Day for 'Justice' in Missouri" and urged attention to the matter. The Missouri Supreme Court has not yet responded to Trump's comments. The ruling involves a dispute over congressional district boundaries, which could impact the upcoming general election.
