Oh please, bullets will not fly if they do this. Put down the hyperbole before you get someone hurt.

The truth is, if they are going to do this, Democrats have to do it. There is no way Republicans are going to do it short of a nuclear event.

This little problem with Biden is in the Democrat’s court.

If we take the true Red Wave and gain a real majority we can override pretty much anything through legislation and the power of the VETO override. We have not seen a good use of it in years. AND we can do that whether it is Biden or Harris or Pelosi sitting in that Presidential seat.

True, regardless of outcome in Nov, this “problem” is in the Dems court. Removal and selection of new VP requires a simple majority in both chambers. Dems hold that until 3 Jan. I doubt they can act that fast. REPUBS SHOULD VOTE NO on ANYTHING prior to 3 JAN 2023. However Dems do have a quorum in BOTH CHAMBERS and can remove Joey and can name a new VP WITHOUT ANY REPUB votes required!

As for overriding any Veto after 3 Jan 2023, not impossible just GOOD LUCK!!

According to Article 1, Section 7 of the Constitution, a vetoed bill can become law if TWO-THIRDS of the Members voting in EACH CHAMBER AGREE, by recorded vote, a quorum being present, to repass the bill and thereby override the veto of the President.

On a good day, after 3 Jan 2023, you will need at least 50+ Dems in the House and 13-15+ Dems in the Senate to go along with override for EVERY VETO! RINOs just make this entire Calculus that much harder. Other than ObamaCare, when was the last time Repubs voted as a SOLID RELIABLE BLOCK? It only takes a precious few defectors either way to mess this up. NO WAY I can see Repubs wining a 2/3 majority in Either Chamber.

The real wildcards in my opinion are ANTIFA & BLM. If there is any kind of a Red Wave, I expect ANTIFA, BLM and their armed Militia (NFAC) will most likely attempt to “peacefully” protest yet again after some preplanned staged incident. ANTIFA & Burn Loot Murder will be pissed.

Real question, just how far are Dems willing to go to remain in power??
