I don’t know what you’re complaining about. Everything that was done in Congress on January 6th was fully compliant with the Electoral Count Act of 1887 — to the extent that law is even constitutional at all. Under no circumstances should Congress be empowered to override the will of individual states in a presidential election process.

Read the text of the 12th Amendment to see exactly what the VP’s role in the process is. It’s very simple. His job is to count the electoral votes that have been sent to Congress by the states. The time to deal with all those irregularities in the voting processes was BEFORE the electoral votes were certified in December.

i said, "Jan 6 she(speaker of the house) only allowed 11 republicans on the floor using "covid" rules.
That alone didn't allow Trump to get a quorum"

They're required to be on the floor to accept their vote.

said, "Everything that was done in Congress on January 6th was fully compliant with the Electoral Count Act of 1887"

That is true if 11 >= 286 (For a majority)
If 11 is greater then 286 then they did comply with the electoral count act of 1887.
Other wise it was a Coup d'état

Again the objection wasn't based if they should count the vote or not.
The Objection made which was, "all of the known circumstances, regularly given."
Referring to covid rules which the state legislators didn't get a vote on. Which obviously they didn't.
Then the breach took place making even less "regular circumstances"
