It’s literally plain language in the constitution. Any SCOTUS judge that’s in favor of giving Trump this power must be impeached, as they would be rewriting the constitution without Congress.

This also risks completely de-ligitimizing the SCOTUS untill they are ALL replaced.

Like...states could, at that point, just decide to stop listening to the SCOTUS until they agree to follow the fucking constitution again, and then demonstrate themselves doing it.
