So many loser-brained comments that think that you can rules-lawyer your way out of a situation that you were never rules-lawyered into to begin with. It's also silly to think that a Democratically-held Executive would continue to be allowed to become a thorn in the side of the right-wing project.

votes in Florida gets the electors and is the president." So Unless you have a plan to "win elections" by just getting fewer votes and declaring yourself president, you aren't going to match the GOP election wins.

What everyone needs to remember is that it's actually a 3-3-3 Court...

Just a weird coincidence that every single 6-3 decision goes one way! Impossible to explain, but the underlying facts can't be disputed.

France is on its 5th Republic. I think maybe you could do with a 2nd. Though actually achieving that is probably impossible in the current situation.
