"The cornerstone of the (2020) plan was to have the Supreme Court embrace the little known "independent state legislature" doctrine, which, in turn, would pave the way for exploitation of the Electoral College process and the Electoral Count Act, and finally for Vice President Mike Pence to reject enough swing state electoral votes to overturn the election using Pence's ceremonial power under the 12th Amendment and award the presidency to Donald Trump.The independent state legislature doctrine says that, under the Elections and the Electors Clauses of the Constitution, state legislatures possess plenary and exclusive power over the conduct of federal presidential elections and the selection of state presidential electors. Not even a state supreme court, let alone other state elections officials, can alter the legislatively written election rules or interfere with the appointment of state electors by the legislatures, under this theory. The Supreme Court has never decided whether to embrace the independent state legislature doctrine. But then-Chief Justice William Rehnquist, and Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas in separate concurring opinions said they would embrace that doctrine in Bush v. Gore, 20 years earlier, and Republicans had every reason to believe there were at least five votes on the Supreme Court for the doctrine in November 2020, with Amy Coney Barrett having just been confirmed in the eleventh hour before the election.
Trump and the Republicans began executing this first stage of their plan months before November 3, by challenging as violative of the independent state legislature doctrine election rules relating to early- and late-voting, extensions of voting days and times, mail-in ballots, and other election law changes that Republicans contended had been unlawfully altered by state officials and state courts in swing states such as Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Carolina and Michigan. ...Thwarted by the Supreme Court's indecision on that doctrine, Trump and the Republicans turned their efforts to the second stage of their plan, exploitation of the Electoral College and the Electoral Count Act. ...The Electoral Count Act empowers Congress to decide the presidency in a host of circumstances where Congress determines that state electoral votes were not "regularly given" by electors who were "lawfully certified," terms that are undefined and ambiguous. ...The Republicans' plan failed at this stage when they were unable to secure a single legitimate, alternative slate of electors from any state because the various state officials refused to officially certify these Trump-urged slates.
...Trump and the Republicans can only be stopped from stealing the 2024 election at this point if the Supreme Court rejects the independent state legislature doctrine (thus allowing state court enforcement of state constitutional limitations on legislatively enacted election rules and elector appointments) and Congress amends the Electoral Count Act to constrain Congress' own power to reject state electoral votes and decide the presidency."

2020 was practice run. The chickens come home to roost in 2024. Are you ready for the madness?
Why do you assume that the Republican candidate in 2024 won't simply get clearly more votes than the Democratic candidate?"The cornerstone of the (2020) plan was to have the Supreme Court embrace the little known "independent state legislature" doctrine, which, in turn, would pave the way for exploitation of the Electoral College process and the Electoral Count Act, and finally for Vice President Mike Pence to reject enough swing state electoral votes to overturn the election using Pence's ceremonial power under the 12th Amendment and award the presidency to Donald Trump.The independent state legislature doctrine says that, under the Elections and the Electors Clauses of the Constitution, state legislatures possess plenary and exclusive power over the conduct of federal presidential elections and the selection of state presidential electors.

Your misery comes from Sacramento, not Biden. Trust me. I know. I can see the land of fruits and nuts from my window. Everything is very strange over there.I don't know for sure if they cheated on either side in 2020.
I do wish Trump would have won. Then we, as a nation, wouldn't have to suffer through the failing and incompetent Biden administration.
My God, almost 3 more years of this clown.

There's another way to stop the Republicans, have a trial for every person guilty of treason. I know a dozen to get started on.. Michigan, Wisconsin, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and Georgia need to be purging their parties as we speak. I thought Trump would go down as the worst president of all time, but his name will only appear next to the worst tyrants in the history of civilization, and Ted Cruz will be there with him.

Why are you questioning his proximity to your [supposed] 3 years of "success?"Why are you apposed to another 3 years of success??)
they preach about being Christian
they tried to illegally stop Biden from assuming office
they still lie about the election
they still support a crook, conman and adultery like he's the savior
There is no Christian equivalent to Sharia Law. Try again.They are the Christian Taliban. They are exactly the same, but Christian instead of muslim. Terrorists
