Congress is never given the authority to declare a President ineligible. Their authority in the electoral vote certification is merely in deciding whether each State submitted a proper certification of their electors. That’s all. If the State submitted proper certification THEY HAVE TO ACCEPT those electoral votes. They have no discretion to do anything BUT accept those electoral votes. The statute is clear.

Show me something that changes that fact, or you and everybody else here has to know that you’re spouting BS.

Well I would say the same of you, spouting BS, but one has to have at least some understanding to spout BS, and you clearly don't understand at all.

Try this hypothetical:

Some future Conservative President decides that ultra-liberal SCOTUS Justice James Branch Cabell is senile and not in control of his faculties.

What is the method of removal and replacement of Justice Cabell? What if the U.S House is ultra-liberal too and decides that keeping Justice Cabell seated is in their best interests ... for whatever reason and refuses to impeach Justice Cabell?

Furthermore, what if SCOTUS Justice Henry. L. Mencken decides that Justice Cabell is being unfairly put upon and shouldn't be impeached. Does he have standing to challenge Congresses authority to impeach? What if the Whole SCOTUS decided that it was politically unfair to Impeach Justice Cabell?

Where does the remedy exist for such a situation?
