...how that would make a difference, given the Supreme Court's decisions.

Even if the immunity doesn't fly (if every single part of the vote count tampering was while Trump was out of office)...last week's decision would make redress impossible.

In a sense, we've already lost the country -- as far as normal nonviolent procedures for controlling treason and correcting course go. That just hasn't sunk in yet.

If I'm missing something, please, please let me know.
