Senior House Dems Signal They May Not Certify 2024 Election Results If Trump Wins: REPORT​


Katelynn Richardson​
Senior House Democrats signaled Friday that they may not certify the 2024 election results if former President Donald Trump wins, according to The Atlantic.

During oral arguments earlier this month to consider a Colorado ruling finding Trump ineligible for the ballot under the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist ban,” the Supreme Court did not appear persuaded that a single state should be able to remove him, though it is unclear whether the justices will address the eligibility question directly. Depite criticizing Republicans who voted against certifying President Joe Biden’s victory in 2020, several senior Democrats who spoke to The Atlantic reportedly left open the possibility of not certifying a Trump 2024 victory if the Supreme Court does not clearly rule on his eligibility.

Democratic California Rep. Zoe Lofgren told the Atlantic she believes Trump is “clearly ineligible” but said the process of challenging it is “very murky.” She said “there’s no procedure, per se, for challenging on this basis,” according to the outlet.

Nevertheless, Lofgren said she “might be” among the legislatures who would seek to disqualify him.

Democratic South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn told the Atlantic he thinks Trump is “an insurrectionist.” (RELATED: Nearly Every Supreme Court Justice Seems To Have Doubts About Kicking Trump Off The Ballot)

Democratic California Rep. Adam Schiff, while noting he would not object if the Supreme Court rules Trump is eligible, told The Atlantic he didn’t “want to get into the chaos hypothetical” of the Supreme Court declining to answer.

“I’m going to follow the law,” Democratic California Rep. Eric Swalwell told the Atlantic. “I would not object out of protest of how the Supreme Court comes down. It would be doing what I didn’t like about the January 6 Republicans.”

The attorney representing Colorado during oral arguments, Jason Murray, suggested to the justices that the issue may arise again in Congress if they do not make a clear determination.

“If this Court concludes that Colorado did not have the authority to exclude President Trump from the presidential ballot on procedural grounds…I think it could come back with a vengeance because, ultimately, members of Congress would — may have to make the — the determination after a presidential election if President Trump wins about whether or not he is disqualified from office and whether to count votes cast for him under the Electoral Count Reform Act,” he said.

These vershuga-frlongs have NO CLUE with what they trifle.

The fastest and easiest way to start a TRUE insurrection is to step up and refuse to certify a reasonably clear Trump win.

They have no idea what an insurrection IS today.

I'd rather not teach them the error of their ways.

But I MOST CERTAINLY WILL help in their education should that become a "THING".

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You mean they would aim for the same thing as the J6 people, which was literally worse than Pearl Harbor, 9/11, and every other trauma in our history, combined and multiplied by 10?

What, are they election deniers? Threats to democracy?

I've always said that if 2020 was reversed in terms of who was on which side, the commies would have turbocharged J6.

So, what, they're going to shut off Dominion, let us win, try to DENY us the win, in a bid to get us all running out in the streets with our rifles? Assuming, of course, we had any, what with our boating accidents and all.

They seem to thirst for it. Woe is the day that we do likewise.

The left will never accept a Trump victory (democracy be damned) and the right won’t accept the Kunstleresque f***ery this time around. Push meet shove, irresistible force meet unmovable object. That is why for the first time for me I question as to whether we even have an election and if we do the result will be utter chaos. At the very best we have until November before things really fall apart but I think it will come before then.

Three great conflicts, each one much more violent than the previous: the POTOS campaign season where the left hunts down MAGA voters to beat the snot out of them; post election stage after DJT wins enough to overcome the cheating where the losing side looses their shit overt he overwhelming outcome and doubles down on lethal hits and widespread violence; finally their entire bureaucratic behemoth shuts down .gov and much of lib-controlled economy goes on full-tilt strike to shut down society. CW blossoms

It's coming...no doubt.

Here's one reason why I think we're close. Here's the current rumor..
Putin slaps Lindsey Graham on Russia's "Most Wanted list" for terrorists & extremists...



Russia has officially added Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., to a list of "terrorists and extremists" after the GOP firebrand condemned the Russian government for the death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny this week.3 days ago...Fox News

This needs it's own thread.

Nothing like schoolyard lawyering.........

Just because Simon saw Sharon at the deli on Tuesday the 5th of March in 2020, Simon is guilty of TRASON and must be executed.........


They are trying really hard to splinter the law into saying what they want to say.....

I have believed for a while now that the republic is no more, that we are living in a fading empire with a meat puppet as its figurehead. That empire will lash out no matter who "wins" the "election". We all need to accept that the fight is coming and be ready.

We will win, but there will be a terrible cost.
