From the very beginning many legal scholars and advisor said the case would be tossed for lack of standing because what Texas was saying is more of a generalized grievance instead of a specific injury unique to Texas.

As more States filed to "intervene" it further supported the idea of a generalized grievance.

If your complaint is a generalized grievance you lack standing and the case is tossed.

SCOTUS made the right call here.

IIRC, Pres. Trump requested to “intervene”; i.e., to join the case as a Plaintiff. Unfortunately, SCOTUS denied his application.
