Not all Democrats have resigned themselves to the idea of Trump taking office as Inauguration Day approaches. Currently, a pair of high-profile left-leaning lawyers are pushing the idea that House and Senate Democrats should consider blocking Trump from taking office, and that they should use the 1887 Electoral Count Act to do it.

The act requires 20% of the members of each chamber to sign a petition objecting to the electoral vote, which would ultimately make Kamala Harris the next president instead of Donald Trump. What is the basis for the objection? The lawyers are insisting that Trump should be viewed as an “oath-breaking insurrectionist,” and that under the 14th Amendment’s Insurrection Clause, the electoral votes he received should be invalid.

The problem for the Left is that Trump did keep his oath, and his electoral votes are valid. The last-ditch effort by Democrat lawyers to stop Trump from taking office is the real threat to Democracy but it won’t succeed. The American people have spoken, and Donald J. Trump will be the next president of the United States!
