Ya think?
Pelosi as temporary President for a week might be fatal or there might not be enough time for her to get her coup state in place.
She gets there only because Jan 20 comes and goes and neither Biden nor Trump are sworn in.
What drives the time in this scenario where she’s allowed to act as executive is how fast the 12th Amendment process plays out in the House of Representatives. This process shouldn’t take more than two days.
The 12th Amendment process in turn is driven by how fast SCOTUS moves to rule on Powell’s and other’s lawsuits.
Say Powell files her reply on Friday Jan 15, one day later and SCOTUS rules Monday Jan 18, two days before Jan 20. It’s possible the House could vote the afternoon or evening of Jan 18 or Tuesday Jan 19 in order for Trump to be sworn in Jan 20.
Likely Pelosi is going to delay whenever, wherever she can.
Those with snarks, try and contribute something rather than show the thread your ugly a$$es.
