Turning a purple state blue via court order rather than votes will have consequences down the line. While the stacked Supreme Court is almost definitely going to rule in Trump’s favor, them ruling against him isn’t something we should simply see as a boon with no strings attached.
Shut up, idiot. For one thing, the law is clear, this is literally using the Constitution as intended, for another the Republicans are free to nominate someone that isn’t a traitor.
I’m terribly sorry you snacked on paint chips as a child and are thus unable to see both my point and potential longterm consequences. Trump is a traitor, but if you think his base is going to quietly shrug and let constitutionality get in the way of getting their guy in power, I have a bridge to sell you.
No we should not, as I am not saying that. I’m not in any way suggesting that he should get off scot-free for his poorly attempted coup, I’m merely pointing out the existence of consequences, which is apparently a controversial view.

You’re saying that states shouldn’t uphold the law.
Don’t put words in my mouth and re-read what I said, thanks!

So what, we should ignore the Constitution to appease Trump’s cult?
No we should not, as I am not saying that. I’m not in any way suggesting that he should get off scot-free for his poorly attempted coup, I’m merely pointing out the existence of consequences, which is apparently a controversial view.
But what if they are good consequences?
Then hurray for that! I’m not nearly optimistic enough to think that, but one can hope.
