If SCOTUS or Pence did what we (selfishly) wanted them to do, then...
- military would NOT have been the only way
- there would have been no CHECKMATE
- no CASTLE ROCK
- no RED 1..6
- no fence around the Capitol (owl in fence, when does a bird sing)
- no Great Awakening (Trump would be President-Select for half the country)
So... are SCOTUS and Pence traitors? Maybe... but their inaction are not proof of that. So far, their inaction are perfectly consistent with THE PLAN.
Thats my take too, Roberts may have yelled at them in the backroom but the conservative judges still could have outvoted the Lib judges. I believe they are also playing their part in the plan!
Something that still doesn't sit right with me about SCOTUS is that ALL of the Trump appointees voted against hearing the case. However, Thomas and Alito voted to hear it. Could it be that the newbies knew we needed to get to this point for the plan to work? ?
For me, it had to be shown that Trump SCOTUS picks were independent and not bought out.
Imagine the reaction if the 3 Trump picks had ruled in Trump's favour. Guaranteed national crisis, and not a single ounce of legitimacy for Trump in the next 4 years. Plus legacy forever stained as the 'President-Select'.
