Nowadays I just ruefully laugh at the "well, actually, the Constitution says..." takes because it shows me you're as disconnected from reality as Trump is. "It says here they must hold the election, or that Pelosi automatically becomes Speaker!" Yeah okay.
Take it up with the marshal of the supreme court
The most absurd notion is that beating Trump (however that happens cause you fucking got me) magically resets everything to January 2009. Pandora's box is open.
Re Pelosi, meant to say President. But yeah. The institutions won't hold, the majority party is in his thrall and the opposition is like those apocryphal soldiers in Poland charging at Hitlers tanks on horseback.
The next one will be Trumps racism and mania with people behind him led by Karl Rove types who know what they're doing. Those sternly worded letters from the opposition are going to seem even weaker against a demagogue with a 72% approval rating.
"Sir, we strongly urge you to decrease the decapitations on the White House lawn and humbly request some clarity on what the 'no-no' words are."
“We hope you can compromise with us on this year’s omnibus spending bill and that is why we have agreed to 75% of the funding you asked for to build gulags for those who deign to question your divine rule.”
“We thought your request that no Democrats be allowed to speak on the floor of the House and Senate was overly broad but in the spirit of bipartisan compromise we agree that Democrats will be unable to speak on 80% of the days that Congress is in session.”
