it is fascinating, imho, that the proponents of this scheme deliberately avoided any of the several constitutional means for getting what they wanted

Most other analyses miss the key issue emphasized here: Can the states bypass the Constitutional amendment process when they object to a provision of the Constitution in a case that clearly contradicts the Founders’ intent?

The answer is that they cannot, at least without nullifying the rest of the Constitution as well.

Too many people argue secondary issues instead of this main one.

Also, each state was guaranteed a “republican form of government.” This pact changes the state into a Hugo Chavez style democracy, where 51% dictate to the 49%.

The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey (which controls bridges,tunnels and airports in the "Tri State" region) is a "compact" approved by Congress,as required in the Constitution.

This fraudulent plan isn't...and won't be.

The only way to stop it is to win the majority. If California’s and New York’s votes went to Trump because they did this they would rethink their strategy.

Very well argued.

Here’s a question for you: Suppose the Democrats take the Senate in 2020 (or 2022), and Congress APPROVES the NPV interstate compact?

Would that make it Constitutional?

The only votes that will matter will be New York and California if the EC is dissolved.

And when those states give illegal aliens, felons in jail and crazy people the right to vote while scrubbing the ticket of Trump or anyone else conservative....well....

In ‘92 when Clinton won with less than 50% of the popular vote the Ministry of Truth blathered on and on about how wonderful the Electoral College was because “it magnified and legitimized his victory”.

So when does this get challenged in the courts — after the election? Would be a disaster.

The outcome is clear as the table is being set.

If the 2020 election is close to within 50 points, then the liberal progressives will force the states to side with their decision to go with popular vote. If so, then it WILL be a constitutional crisis. This might precipitate a civil war. Are youse guys are ready for this? Think hard before you answer.

Outcomes...

[1] DJT reelected by clear majority. Media has a hissy fit, Same old. Same old.

[2] DJT elected by narrow margin, democrats try to over turn using every method they can think of. DJT prevails. BLM and Antifa start throwing terrorist motivated temper tantrums.

[3] DJT elected by narrow margin. Democrats try to over turn election. RINO's back the democrats. DJT fights back - Civil War ignited.

[4] Democrat elected by clear majority. DJT steps down. Rinos go to their constituents and tell them all these great ideas they have to get back in power. Yada yada yada. Conservatives go home and do nothing. Progressive strangle hold is finalized during the first term of the new democrat president, and guns are banned within two years (after a gun-related false flag event in the first six months after the election). Conservatives turn in their guns, under the watchful eyes of their loved ones, and children who are organized by the schools to report non-comrade behaviors.

What do you think will happen? It is obvious that the stage is being set. I cannot see it pan out any other way.
