Which will basically let state governments (minus the governor or judiciary) overturn their electoral results, meaning that if enough StopTheSteal politicians in enough states want to, they could just negate how their states voted and hand 2024 off to Trump or Desantis even if Biden wins at first :agony-limitless:

    the federal govt isnt allowed to do anything except have an army, gee how convenient. but maybe this will break up America and we can go to being 50 separate countries like we should be. that's a win in my book.

      The US Military is notoriously very cool with regional break-aways operating outside the control of the empire. We definitely haven't seen the Pentagon use balkinization as a means of dividing and conquering a country, then fusing it back together again under a military dictatorship.

          I don't think there's much of a plan. the failsons can't do shit anymore except bloat budgets

      That sentiment is reasonable but I think this is actually going to suck: states get to do the bad stuff but not the good stuff, same for the feds. The SC isn't consistent and will just make shit up and dress it in legalese to do what they want.
