>…Spike, I know you're trying very hard but you're never going to make me a fan of those neo-Nazi militia loonies…

 

I see.  You believe able-bodied men between the ages of 17 and 45 are neo-Nazi militia loonies?  Were you a neo-Nazi loonie when you were part of the US militia?

 

>…  And if it hadn't been for the actions of the Vice President on January 6, 2021 when he refused to become a traitor the destruction would've been successful….

 

Nonsense.  The military and the militia would not have joined any coup.  Had not the congress certified anyone on 6 Jan, the previous POTUS’s term (along with VPOTUS) expires anyway.  Then… the next in succession to be sworn in as interim POTUS on 20 Jan would be the speaker of the house.

 

>… And that's why your protestations of love for the US Constitution have failed to move me….

 

It doesn’t need to move you John. 

 >…The current POTUS tried like hell to do exactly that! it didn't happen thanks to the vice president…  John K Clark

 

Thanks to the constitution.  That is the law that arranges for the next in line to become interim POTUS in the event of any disruption.  We would have had President Pelosi, had no one been certified by congress.  Note what happened in the election of 2000.  The outcome was not known, but had not it been decided by 6 Jan, then Speaker Dennis Hastert would have been sworn in as interim POTUS.

John at some point, you should read the document you disparage.  The founders thought of scenarios such as POTUS does not wish to relinquish the office.  There is a reason why it has never happened, and it has nothing to do with the former VPOTUS.
