Electoral College Faithful "Faithless" Electors as Insurance Policy

Posted on 11/06/2024 7:32:20 PM PST by Degaston

So, it looks like Trump is going to get over 300 EVs. However, there are going to be Dem's who will stop at nothing still to try to deny him the Presidency on January 6th. We cannot overlook this risk. And there is a solution for this.

Have 2-3 Electors, with the blessing of the winners, switch their President/VP votes to have JD as President and Trump as Vice President.

And here's hwo it could end up on January 6th:

President: Trump 309, Harris 226, Vance 3 Vice President: Vance 309, Harris 226, Trump 3

Trump/Vance announced as winners.

But here's what could happen if some Insurance is not in place:

Speaker: For what purpose does Mr Raskin rise. Raskin: Trump is an insurrectionist. Around 90 million Americans are Russian conspirists. He must be disqualified. Speaker: OK lets have a vote. Raskin + rest of Dems + a pack of RINOs: Aye Most of GOP: Nay Speaker: Motion carries. Let's count the Electoral Votes.

President: Harris 226, Vance 0 Vice President: Vance 312, Harris 226

Announcement: our next President is Harris and Vice President is Vance & Trump is nobody.

Now let's recount those Electoral Votes if Trump was disqualified due to the 90 million Russian conspiracists theory of Raskin.

President: Harris 226, Vance 3 Vice President: Vance 312, Harris 226

Vance will be declared VP, become acting President on January 20th, and the House will vote by delegations to pick a President. They'll pick from Harris and Vance & pick Vance. And then Vance becomes President on January 20th & announces he isn't taking the Oath of Office.

He could then appoint Trump as VP & have both Houses of Congress confirm him & then resign & Trump becomes President. And then Trump could appoint him VP & then have both Houses of Congress confirm him.

Now just having that Insurance policy in place would likely prevent Raskin from doing something stupid. But I don't trust Raskin one bit. I well remember what happened in California when the new Assembly Minority Leader (Democrat Willy Brown of San Francisco) ended up getting elected Speaker even though the Republicans had a 41-39 margin. Willy had already been Speaker for 14 years. But he was able to get another 2 years because he screwed over the Republicans. The Democrats of 2024 are a lot like Willy was back then. Don't trust them blindly.

They have no choice.

How many bong hits did it take to come up with this fantasy?

Clarification on what JD Vance would do in this scenario as the post format got screwed up.

Jan 6th - JD elected Vice President on 270+ EVs
Jan 6th - Nobody has 270+ EVs for President
Jan 7th - House quorums by State vote & JD is elected President
Jan 20th - JD resigns as Vice President and then JD sworn in as President; he announces that he will appoint Trump as VP
late January - Trump confirmed by House/Senate
Jan 31st - Trump takes Oath as VP
Feb 1st - JD resigns as President; Trump takes Oath as President; he announces that he will appoint JD as VP
early Feb - JD confirmed by House/Senate
Feb 12th - JD takes Oath of Office on Lincoln’s birthday

PS I think if Trump/Vance + 3 Electors announce they’ll do this switch then it’ll scare off the Dems in Congress from trying something like this to disqualify Trump. And does anyone think they’d ever try to disqualify Trump? Hmmmm did anyone pay attention to why the US Senate had a disqualification trial in early 2021? Or why did the US Senate have a disqualification/removal trial under Chief Justice Roberts during Trump’s first term? Or anyone ever heard of Jack Smith? Or anyone ever heard of Fani Willis in Georgia? Or anyone ever heard of Alvin Bragg in NY?

It’s a good question what they will try next.

The Democrats LOST the media in this election - they won’t have their usual protection when they, as usual, try to wreck the country. Trump will be sworn in.

What I’m more interested in is how many high-level government people try to flee the country, knowing that this time they may well be held accountable.

I love this kind of thinking. It is quite clever.

These people are inveterate sneaks. They can only operate in an underhanded fashion. Everything must be done through dishonesty and subterfuge. They have no honor and no integrity.

I tried to read through your entire argument. But it was too complicated, too unnecessary, and frankly too wacky.

I’m not complaining (seriously). And no disrespect meant. I like chess puzzles. But what you present is an intricate solution to a chess puzzle that would never present itself in the real world.

Trump is just too far ahead.

Buy a lot of popcorn, it’s going to be fun to watch.

Go read up on the Election for Speaker of the California Assembly after the 1994 Elections. The sneaky games played by Willie Brown on that are legendary. The Democrats had 39 seats. The Republicans had 41 seats. And Brown got elected Speaker. That was before he went back home to San Francisco to be Mayor & then mentor for Kamala.

I believe there was alcohol involved in this thought.
