...It would take 2/3 of the House, 2/3 of the Senate, and 3/4 of the States to ratify a constitutional amendment. That's NOT going to happen. And I think even this Supreme Court would not allow an executive to just "executive away" the Constitution. Even if only because that is also where their power comes from. No, we sit in Shiva for a week, lick our wounds, and then prepare to fight for the mid-terms.
