Several things about this:
-
No one, not even the “Pod Save America guys, who think about this stuff for a living and have proven they’re good at it,” was able to figure out before December 2000 that the Supreme Court of these United States could ever fashion a Fourteenth-Amendment argument – think of it! a Fourteenth-Amendment argument! – for not allowing the proper counting of all the votes by the duly appointed local authorities – and yet that is exactly what the Court did. Bizarre, I’m sure, but here we are.
-
So, yes, it is therefore something of “an interesting mind game to come up with ways” the Court might mess things about.
-
And it’s not necessarily about having a “viable, realistic way to steal the election.” As noted, it is about using the Court to “commit a certain amount of mayhem,” as unlikely as that may seem a priori.
And with those caveats, I return you now to your regular pod-cast.
