“ While Republicans hold the majority in both houses, guaranteeing a Trump decision in each case is foolhardy. ”

Wait...what????
Article was good until that point.
State legislatures will do NOTHING - they have no guts and/or are compromised. Next question: does Mike Pence have the guts to toss the votes of those 6 states, or just count the Trump slates; I think not.

My recollection of China Mitch’s begging Senators to not debate the issue is the consequences of the RINO’s being labeled as RINO’s as well as the R party being doomed (or something to that effect)
The problem is they are doomed politically unless they do actually support Trump and toss those votes. In particular some of the red states will likely primary their RINO’s, or simply not vote at all and let their rat opponent win. Additionally, Pence’s career is shot, it’s over.
These politicians know America will be watching and at the end of the day will know exactly who’s naughty and who’s nice.
The threat of massive violence has certainly crossed the politicians minds, and know there will be violence regardless of how this mess turns out. They should be smart enough to know with a Biden presidency there will be guaranteed violence. The same goes with a Trump win. The difference is the Insurrection Act and that EO. They know Trump will use it and clean up this mess. They know Biden will let it fester into CWII.
