President Donald Trump on September 4 criticized the Missouri Supreme Court's ruling on redrawing congressional district maps, calling it "ridiculous, unconstitutional, and disruptive to the upcoming election."
In a post on X, Trump wrote: "The Missouri Supreme Court just ridiculously ruled in favor of changing the maps back to what they were a long time ago. It’s called, Ancient History! The problem is, according to Legal Scholars, that not only was the ruling horrible, ridiculous, and unConstitutional, but there won’t be enough time to change the map back with the Election coming up in a very short period of time. The Election Process, as usual, is being disturbed in America! Missouri must be able to use the map that was in effect just a couple of months ago, in the Primary. This is a Dark Day for 'Justice' in Missouri! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
The ruling, issued earlier on September 4, ordered the state to revert to earlier district boundaries drawn in 2021. Trump's remarks echo his broader concerns about electoral integrity, though no immediate response from Missouri officials has been reported.
