Second American Revolution Second Edition

As I write this, the Covid 19 virus is raging out of control. The current American death toll, as a result of the virus, is approaching 270,000 and is expected to double within the next couple of months. The press, or at least all the major mainstream news networks, have quite gleefully reported that the federal election is over, Trump has lost, Biden is now the 'president elect', and Trump should 'quit playing golf and prepare to spend the remainder of his 'golden years' in a 'correctional institution'.'Perhaps the journalists are blinded by their hatred of Trump. The man is by no means the 'sharpest tool in the shed', but nor is he entirely stupid. He has hired a rather impressive team of lawyers, including experts on constitutional law, and those 'legal eagles' are almost certainly telling Trump precisely what he wants to hear. Strangely enough, it may even be the truth. The fact is that the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution makes no mention of the popular vote. It is the Electors who vote for the President, as well as the Vice President, and not the American voters. Further, those same lawyers are prepared to argue, before the Supreme Court, that the states have no right to meddle in a federal election. This is to say that any state laws which place restrictions on the Electors are not constitutional. If the Supreme Court agrees, then the current two-party system will effectively be abolished.
