What legal theory exactly would lead to the outcome you describe. After the Congress certifies the vote, that’s it. Constitutionally, the process is done. The Congress can’t reverse it because they are the ones who would have made it happen. How would congress undo that? By taking it to court? Well that’s a separation of powers issue. Even if they were to overturn the result, well now SCOTUS is accused of interfering with the election as they did in 2000. I mean… no matter how you slice it, such an event would destroy democracy. How do you have another free and fair election after that?
At the point where 50% of the Congress is voting against democracy, and the people are assaulting the Capitol, it strikes me as naive to expect institutions like scotus to save us at long last.
If you value American democracy, 2024 is the last stand. Sorry you feel this perspective is breathless, but also you don’t seem to have a grasp of the severity of what happened. Which is why I’m imploring you to watch.
