Legislative history will show this to be a Bill of Attainder as clearly it’s not aimed at anybody but Trump.

might be a better strategy to keep the powder dry and have CA’s EC Votes tossed because the sitting President was not in their ballot. A bit risky since the Rats control house.

as clearly it’s not aimed at anybody but Trump...

The money quote, implicitly dripping with this law being Trump-driven, given what 'Rats have been saying about him:

“These are extraordinary times,” Melgar said. “States have a legal and moral duty to restore public confidence in government and ensure leaders seeking the highest offices meet minimal standards.”

The article makes the salient point that without Trump, the biggest incentive for R turnout is removed, thus penalizing the party and down-ticket races for what one candidate may or may not do.

Good observation, FRiend. How many people even know what a bill of attainder is?
