I don’t see any legal way such a strategy can be stopped, because it’s all based on “legal” technicalities.
I’m not a scholar in any of this, but I can’t imagine the President is powerless to halt such a scheme. I’ve been given to understand that the Office has broad powers under certain invocations. Even if they manage to get everything rolling in just the right way, there’s still a period of time between when the elections happen and when the next president is sworn in.
I cannot believe our government would sit idly by and let this cockamamie scheme just unfold and go, “Damn, I guess it’s technically legal.” And if they do, then they obviously wanted it to happen.
I wish it was clear-cut. It sucks that it’s in this “technically legal” gray area to laypeople like us and the author. I would live to read a constitutional scholar’s, legal scholar’s, or a lawyer’s take on it.

Yeah. I actually tend to agree with you on this. On the other hand they did it in 2000 and it worked fine.

That sounds like exactly the kind of thing the Democrats love to do.
