Will Donald Trump assure the first woman President of the U.S. will succeed him

So how is that even possible. So, it’s clear that Joe Biden will likely select a woman as his V.P. candidate but it’s NOT because there’s an expectation that something happens to V.P. Biden.

There is another possibility albeit remote.

The President has begun vociferously advancing the belief that the election will be fraught with misdeeds, fraud, abuse and anything else he can suggest due to the expanded use of the vote by mail campaigns that are designed to protect people against being forced to vote, in person, during the COVID-10 pandemic. He suggests that there is a difference between vote by mail and absentee ballot voting, which he has done routinely. In fact, the absentee ballot process is also a by mail process. This is a difference without a distinction and simply a distraction.

But how do we get the first female President?

The President cannot change the date of the election. That is clear. It is codified in multiple federal laws as the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November every fourth year. It is unarguable that only Congress could change the date of the election and the current House of Representatives, dominated by Democrats, would be unlikely to vote a change in the date of the election. However, what if the President were to continue to claim there were conditions, such as insurrection or such, that did not allow for a safe election and declared a State of Emergency ordering Governors to not allow their elections to occur. This would likely, immediately, be challenged in the courts by unwilling Governors. But, what if some Governors in states that were obsequious to the President were to interfere or attempt to postpone their State’s participation in the National election? IF only “Blue State” Governors were to allow their elections to proceed, and “Red State” Governors were to attempt to suspend their elections the courts would have to make the determination. This could take some time and could delay a decision beyond the first Tuesday after the First Monday in November.

There is a provision in Federal Law 3 U.S.C. § that allows for an election failure in “any state”. IF this were to occur the “electors may be appointed in such a manner as the legislature of such State may direct”. SO, if the States’ elections were to “fail” their legislatures would take control. They may either reset the election or by the most extreme determination they may “select” the electors from their state based on a vote of the State legislature. This, too, would likely be met by immediate court challenges, further delaying the decision. This would mean that those States’ electors may not be available on the date of the Electoral College vote. The Electoral College is set to determine the next President on the first Monday after the second Wednesday of December or in 2020 on December 14th.

So, in this nearly crazy construct the Governors followed the President’s wish to postpone the election, the election was a “Fail” in the States whose Governors followed the President, and if the courts hadn’t determined the designation of the Electors by December 14th, the Electoral college may only vote with the Electors that were available. Likely “Blue State” votes would be counted and if the challenger secured the requisite 270 electoral votes, the results of the Electoral College would immediately be challenged in the courts. Again, this will delay the ultimate decision.

So, what happens if all of these machinations weren’t finalized by January 20th, 2021, the date the next President is due to be inaugurated.

The 20th Amendment to the constitution calls for a firm process that the term of the President and Vice-President SHALL end on January 20th. Therefore, regardless of whether the election is finalized or not on January 20th, the term of the existing President and Vice President shall end on Inauguration day.

If the Electoral College doesn’t certify the election then it could fall to the Congress. But some provisions of the rationale for the Congress to select the President may not have occurred, such as an Electoral “tie”, and could be further delayed in court, which could leave the Presidency vacant after the end of the President and Vice President’s term.

The 25th Amendment to the Constitution, which wasn’t passed until after the death of President Kennedy determines the succession of the Presidency however, the 1947 Presidential Succession act Title 3, Section 19 of the U.S.C. states the first person with the opportunity to act (in absence of abstaining, would be the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi or PRESIDENT NANCY PELOSI.

While all this may seem crazy, in today’s unpredictable environment where we see the word unprecedented before nearly every news event in the Donald Trump era, it’s something you have to consider when the President himself speaks about determining the election could take years based on litigation. The President is no stranger to use of the legal system to advance his business and other interests. He has used the legal system often to win.

So, IF you are a “RED STATE” Governor and believe following any edict from the President, either under emergency powers or other such order to delay or suspend the election on November 3, 2020 is a good idea, consider that you could be assuring the ascension of the first female President of the United States, President Nancy Pelosi

VOTE!!!!
