Yeah, I don't understand the legalities of what he is saying. Regardless of anything else, Donald Trump's first term ends on 1/20/21, constitutionally. Even if Biden is arrested, how do you rectify that? Once those votes are received and announced in Congress, I don't see any way around it - Biden/Harris is ELECTED. Once they are elected, there are very few options available to untie that knot. I dare say they could legally take the oath of office even before 1/20, and technically be in office (at noon on that day) even if they are subsequently put in a jail cell.
We're on a countdown now - 7 days for legislatures to decertify/recertify, send new certificates of ascertainment - whatever they need to do. Or does our faith rest in Congress doing the right thing? I won't hold my breath.
If the National Security apparatus has all this info, what is the benefit of waiting until the last second to spring it on everyone?
