On a side note, I can barely recall a time that the Republican “loyal opposition” in Congress has been so quiet. Cheney dissolved the EC vote count very quickly on Jan. 8, and IMO, looked like the bird that ate the canary.... very odd...

What do you think this means?

Well, thinking outside the box...

Can you imagine the rancor from the Left if Republican politicians had been pounding the NBC drum since Election Day? Political in-fighting and calls for riots by Black leaders would have been non-stop as well the entire time:

“Racists!”
“Rigged election!”
“Bush-Cheney usurpers!”

But if the Republicans are quiet, and the SCOTUS acts in a non-partisan manner once they have Constitutional Cause of Action, the Left will be pissed no doubt.

However, there would be less time for opposition to call for civil unrest, less time for terrorists to strike, and Republicans are less likely to be blamed for
causing it all.

The Republicans will still be blamed - count on Pelosi and the MSM for that.

But the instability lasts weeks, not months...

... Just some thoughts..
