Dems Already Planning To Decertify A Trump Election Win?


In a hypocritical move, the Democrats are already planing on blocking the inevitable win of President Donald Trump.

If Republicans do that, it’s election interference. “Danger to democracy!!”

But if Democrats do it…

How many times have we heard that comparison? Democrats are the Party of Hypocrites.

“Voting for Trump is extremely dangerous to our democracy!”

That’s basically the message the Democrats are shouting online.

And as most of us here know, we are NOT a democracy.

So, like clockwork, they’re planning on doing what they accuse Trump and us Republicans of doing.

“Decertify! The ballots weren’t printed on recycled paper and thus they’re promoting climate and we climate kills! So these ballots for Trump are bascially killers and are threatening mankind! Oh the humanity!”

Who knows what nonsense they’re saying behind closed doors. I’m sure its a long list of excuses they’re creating.

The Atlantic reports:

Near the end of the Supreme Court’s oral arguments about whether Colorado could exclude former President Donald Trump from its ballot as an insurrectionist, the attorney representing voters from the state offered a warning to the justices—one evoking the January 6 riot that had set the case in motion.

By this point in the hearing, the justices had made clear that they didn’t like the idea of allowing a single state to kick Trump out of the presidential race, and they didn’t appear comfortable with the Court doing so either. Sensing that Trump would likely stay on the ballot, the attorney, Jason Murray, said that if the Supreme Court didn’t resolve the question of Trump’s eligibility, “it could come back with a vengeance”—after the election, when Congress meets once again to count and certify the votes of the Electoral College.

Murray and other legal scholars say that, absent clear guidance from the Supreme Court, a Trump win could lead to a constitutional crisis in Congress. Democrats would have to choose between confirming a winner many of them believe is ineligible and defying the will of voters who elected him. Their choice could be decisive: As their victory in a House special election in New York last week demonstrated, Democrats have a serious chance of winning a majority in Congress in November, even if Trump recaptures the presidency on the same day. If that happens, they could have the votes to prevent him from taking office.

In interviews, senior House Democrats would not commit to certifying a Trump win, saying they would do so only if the Supreme Court affirms his eligibility. But during oral arguments, liberal and conservative justices alike seemed inclined to dodge the question of his eligibility altogether and throw the decision to Congress.

“That would be a colossal disaster,” Representative Adam Schiff of California told me. “We already had one horrendous January 6. We don’t need another.”

The justices could conclude definitively that Trump is eligible to serve another term as president. The Fourteenth Amendment bars people who have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from holding office, but it does not define those terms. Trump has not been convicted of fomenting an insurrection, nor do any of his 91 indictments charge him with that particular crime. But in early 2021, every House Democrat (along with 10 Republicans) voted to impeach Trump for “incitement of insurrection,” and a significant majority of those lawmakers will still be in Congress next year.

If the Court deems Trump eligible, even a few of his most fervent Democratic critics told me they would vote for certification should he win. “I’m going to follow the law,” Representative Eric Swalwell of California told me. “I would not object out of protest of how the Supreme Court comes down. It would be doing what I didn’t like about the January 6 Republicans.” Schiff, who served on the committee that investigated Trump’s role in the Capitol riot, believes that the Supreme Court should rule that Trump is disqualified. But if the Court deems Trump eligible, Schiff said, he wouldn’t object to a Trump victory.

They sure are hellbent on making sure Trump doesn’t win.

Why are they so concerned?

Shouldn’t these Democrats just kickback and relax with all the millions they now have?

They’re not worried that Trump might have something up his sleeve in regards to them, are they?
