Big development overnight:

Michigan& #39;s two top GOP legislative leaders have announced that they will not help Trump steal the election.

"We will follow the law and follow the normal process regarding Michigan’s electors," they said. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2020/11/20/biden-adviser-michigan-lawmakers-cant-intervene-election-result/6355274002/">https://www.detroitnews.com/story/new...

Many people don& #39;t believe the MI legislative leaders& #39; promise. Yes, trust but verify. But:

The legislature doesn& #39;t certify the electors. The governor does. The only Q is whether they& #39;ll go rogue and appoint a *separate* slate in defiance of popular vote: https://twitter.com/ThePlumLineGS/status/1329777980906868736">https://twitter.com/ThePlumLi...

When MI GOP leaders say they& #39;ll "follow the law," they& #39;re acknowledging that they don& #39;t appoint electors.

Legislature& #39;s constitutional role was to establish the process that Trump corruptly pressured them to junk.
