In short, when the Colorado and Minnesota cases arrive in Washington, the Supreme Court will confront a desperate race against time. If it fails to decide the cases rapidly, it will provoke a constitutional crisis once the polls close and each state decides who won the election. Under current law, state legislatures must report their Electoral College winners in time for Vice President Kamala Harris to report the results to a joint session of Congress meeting on Jan. 6, 2025. Once she inspects the ballots, she is likely to find that none of the three candidates—neither Biden, nor Trump, nor Trump’s proxy—has won a majority of the electoral votes. At this point, Harris will confront a dilemma that will make Vice President Mike Pence’s predicament in 2021 seem modest by comparison.
Can you help me parse that? I don’t quite understand what you are saying.
The US Supreme Court is enshrined by laws as the heights judicial court in the country.
Eventually the matter of trump’s elegibility is going to wind up before it. Your choice at that point is to either accept its authority- even if they’re corrupt assholes who have no business having power; or over throwing the lawful government.
Republicans would simply ignore the court (as they have in the past- in this context they’re the enemy we’d become.).
Note, I’m not advocating an insurrection, either (and become more like them.) but I do see the US as walking a dark path… and I’m scared and impotent.
So regardless, one side will end up in a no-win situation forced to reject the will of the Supreme Court (through this lens).
Yeah I don’t know how they’ll rule. I’m also not 100% that it will get there. Its wildly uncertain times. But thanks for adding more words. I wasn’t quite getting your point before.
