Or... and hear me out now because this might sound crazy but please bear with me... You could respect existing constitutional and legal schemes for resolutions of electoral count disputes and make a show of respecting our institutions of government, rather than violate the Speech and Debate Clause.

If they want to fire on Fort Sumter and secede, we must respect existing norms. Don’t listen to that would be monarch Lincoln!

There were no disputes in 2020, nor will there be legitimate disputes in 2024 The legal resolution was counting the ballots sent by the states, anything beyond that was an attempt at an undemocratic seizure of power "Debating" the people who will use death squads to overthrow the government 🤷‍♂️

You voted for Wheeler and Rene, didn’t you?

Big "Well I dunno the logical argument I made were totally sound" Energy as the gestapo busts in the door.

What's mystifying to me about this assertion is that we did that, for four years, at which point Trump attempted to steal the election and stage a coup, and we've done that, assiduously and repeatedly, for the last 4 years, and he's saying he'll do it again. Have you not been paying attention?!?

What would happen, you think?

Libs will be in a committee meeting putting a discussion on the agenda regarding the feasibility of introducing a motion to submit a resolution defining fascism while the boots tamp down the hall to round them up
