    it could also be an amendment to the constitution if enough states agree but that’s probably even less likely.

    and i’m not sure it should be. i could definitely see a world where trump pushes for conviction of a Democrat candidate (remember all the “lock her up” stuff?). i hope the legal system is robust enough to appeal a rogue court situation but at some point it may not be. And elections are time sensitive, would the appeal even finish before the election?

    flawed as it may be this could be the best solution to guard against authoritarianism.

        exactly, imagine her overseeing a BS felony trial on Biden or whatever other D candidate.
