I don't accept that Trump has the authority to do these things. I accept that six members of the Supreme Court will assert that Trump has the authority to do these things, and that will decide the matter.

  1. It doesn't matter if YOU accept it. What matters is if state governors and boards of election accept it.

    The courts seem to show an extreme reluctance to materially do anything when Trump ignores their orders. It's time to see if that door swings both ways.
