Boris should've resigned the moment he heard ruling. You know the first order of business is going to be a no-confidence vote.

Second order is going to vote to shitcan Brexit.

your series of events is in no way likely. just straight up wishful thinking.

Can we assume the odds of the Republicans in the Senate voting to impeach are absolutely zero? So then the end game in all this is to make them shoot it down and have that over their heads come elections?

no. there's a rabbit hole here, and we don't know how far it goes. it could go that far, though that is unlikely.

i mean, people are definitely going to die when he loses. i'm not sure that constitutes a civil war, at least what i'm envisioning, but there will be a fair amount of violence. could escalate into something super bad, i guess, but that's unlikely.

all of this is only going to get uglier until there's a boiling point. it's inevitable, and him losing could very well be that.

Open hypothetical question: if right now Trump offered to resign under the condition that he gets fully pardoned by Pence AND no state charges are filed would you take it?

easy no

Sam Seder had a guy on yesterday who made the argument that the Supreme Court was never intended to adjudicate the Constitution, and was only assembled so there was a "highest court" for the buck on normal cases to stop at. Thomas Jefferson apparently flipped his poo poo the first time they made a Constitutional ruling

if i remember correctly, the first case to adjudicate the constitution was marbury v madison, which was a direct rebuke of something directly under jefferson. it went against him obv, so if i’m remembering correctly, then i’m not sure jefferson’s reaction is the best evidence of that.

i’m not doubting your ultimate point, just this one piece of evidence. i’d check further but am on a train with spotty service.

fix the trains, cuomo!

based on all that, he could just turn his hotels into partial libraries. kind of like hard rock.

i don't know. potus has veered us so far off course that i think the world will latch onto and embrace for dear life anyone who wins that is obviously of sound mind. i think they'd actually like us more than they have in many, many years at that point. we still have like 2/3 of the world's military, you know, so they will collectively sigh in relief and celebrate. other countries will basically bend over backwards for the next sane president.
