Either way, the odds of some sort of bureaucratic warfare between the IC rank-and-file and the Trump/Flynn WH seem to be approaching 100% — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Right now, big unknown dynamic is whether the IC ends up being run by Trump loyalists, whom the IC opposes, or technocrats who oppose Trump — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Everyone is asking this but no one, including IC members, know the answer. Loudly oppose? Quietly sandbag? Manage up? All of the above? — PolitiTweet.org

if you want to argue # 3, i might suggest finding a legal argument more sophisticated than a wiki page of hamilton quotes — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

arguments i've been given: 1. EC should vote with popular vote 2. EC can disqualify on "temperament" 3. EC can arbitrarily overturn election — PolitiTweet.org

@moorehn @Indira_L @PGourevitch our system doesnt let near-anonymous electors pick president based on whether they like his/her temperament — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

@Indira_L @PGourevitch popular vote is not our system. cant really change the rules of the election after the vote to invalidate results. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

@PGourevitch so if in 2008 the electors had declared obama a demagogue and refused to vote for him, that would’ve been fine? — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

@PGourevitch what is the legal standard for demagogue? — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

getting a lot of tweets saying it’s fine for the EC to overturn the election bc trump lost popular vote. but popular vote is not our system. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

folks saying it’s fine for the EC to overturn the election because of xyz criticism of trump — that’s not how rule of law or democracy work — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

all the folks saying it’s legit for the electors to overturn the election, i’m sure, wouldve been fine with the EC installing mccain in 2008 — PolitiTweet.org
