Good luck trying to get 2/3 of Congress to pass a bill to set up the Amendment process and 3/4 of the state legislatures to pass it. It’ll never happen, especially since the Founding Fathers specifically created the Electoral College to prevent urban areas from too dominating national politics.

Adjunct professor = one step up from a grad student. But the LA Times will publish anyone who can claim any kind of title who writes what it wants to publish.

He’s teaching Georgetown Law students who are paying $57,576 in tuition only. Add another couple of thousand $$$ for fees, and let’s not leave out cost of living in very expensive metro DC. Not sure they’re getting a good deal for their investment if this reflects G’town Law. OK, they are NOT getting a good deal for their investment. Why do universities keep these people on payroll?

Adjunct! Is he the Adjunct Professor of “Sitting Near a Window and Saying Stupid Things” Studies.

Adjunct and may he always remain so!

Saying that a process which is at the core of the constitution is unconstitutional is absurd. That’s like saying that a Georgetown adjunct law professor is a drooling moron with no actual knowledge of the law.

Wait, bad analogy...

In other news, the LA Times continues to assert that Islamic terrorism has absolutely nothing to do with Islam.

At least you can say they are consistent.

But Jost, an adjunct professor at Georgetown University Law Center, says that’s no barrier to having the Supreme Court abolish the Electoral College by fiat.

If a vote by SCOTUS were to be held today it would be 4-4...with the usual suspects voting in favor of "unconstitutional".

The professor sounds like he’s inciting the overthrow of the U.S. Constitution, and by extension, the U.S. government.

That’s clearly treason, and is punishable under our laws.

Lock him up!

A liberal law professor wants the SCOTUS to ignore the Constitution?

What a howler. The Constitution IS the Supreme Law of the land.

Even a law school professor should know that basic dictum.

The SCOTUS can’t override the Constitution by fiat. Period.

Liberals can’t rely on the courts to rewrite the Constitution for them when it doesn’t suit them.

This guy is a law professor?

Maybe it’s just constitutional law he is ignorant about?

I’d wager he never passed the Bar.

Well, they put so much effort into generating fraudulent votes by illegals in big cities like Los Angeles that they can’t bear to see it wasted. :)

The premise is the SCOTUS is supreme to all other branches and to the Constitution itself, and answerable to no one. In other words, they are our dictators.

Once Trump has appointed 3 or 4 judges, I wonder how much slack the LAT/WaPo/NYT etc will be willing to cut the SCOTUS?

What goes around, comes around.
