Schumer compared it to Pearl Harbor. This isn't even going to be the most remarkable day of the year. At least it was funny to see the Senators all shook now that right wing violence finally landed on their doorstep.

I wonder if there's bipartisan support for shortening the lame duck period after all this. Like obviously there would need to be a lot of work to speed up elections at the state level but why was a dude like Trump allowed to stay in office months after being voted out and build up support for something like this

C-Euro posted:I wonder if there's bipartisan support for shortening the lame duck period after all this. Part of it is our stupidly long election certification process. We give states like a month to certify. Then they need to have the electoral vote, then the poo poo that was supposed to happen today. There’s no reason it should take this long, but the constitution requires a million steps. If anything though, inauguration should be immediately after congress certifies the results. At least that would cut two weeks off.

Yeah, if it was a straight popular vote it'd take less than a month.

Skwirl posted:Again, it needs to be a popular vote. Florida wouldn't have loving mattered if it was a popular vote. Well sure but the popular vote compact is the only way we're getting that... and the closer we get to the tipping point the harder it gets to get another state on board. If we have a popular vote, then it'd make sense to push for a constitutional amendment to just go ahead and abolish the electoral college, since it will have been effectively removed from relevance at that point, and while we're doing that, we can also shorten the election process. In the meantime, though, while any random state's votes could be critical, and those states all run their own elections in whatever cockamamie way they want, I'm happy to give them ample time to have their bullshit challenged and maybe re-challenged and get into court etc. etc. After certification of the vote we don't really need more time, probably, I'd be cool with counting electoral votes on the 6th and putting the president (and elected members of congress) into office on the 7th.

I don't think someone like Mike Pompeo, who just over a month ago said there would be a smooth transition to another Trump administration, would be remotely willing to enact the 25th amendment.
