Trump told Congress to ban most mail ballots.
> All this is on top of the fact that elections are run by the states, not the national government. Would such a law even be constitutional?
Experts said no. But this Supreme Court surprised experts before. And the constitution said Congress could decide elections of Congress. They have the power. They need an explanation enough people would accept.
Elections are run by the several states.
I don't have much hope for Congress doing the same.
How could the Supreme Court justify Congress could not decide elections of Congress?
My broader point was that the Judical Branch itself is starting to show some signs of backbone regarding the unchecked flexing going on in the Executive Branch. I was more talking about where you said:
> Experts said no. But this Supreme Court surprised experts before.
That generally, maybe, hopefully the Executive Branch will get a surprise or two as well.
I can be naively hopeful at times.
