(54,157 posts)some states have untested laws on the books that would fine them if they did, which might deter them, but not stop them.
of course, the same laws apply, in theory, to republican electors switching away from donnie....

(9,359 posts)There have been no sever consequences.
The only way I see those laws being really tested is if it actually changed the election outcome.

(54,157 posts)Personally, I think they're clearly unconstitutional. If the founders didn't want the electors to have a choice, they wouldn't have created that role in the first place.

(37,428 posts)Forecasting the actions of a relatively few number of people is hard to do.
Those who flip on Trump will be doxed, surely, and their families harrassed. On the other hand, Trump looks more horrific every day. My predictions for this stupid year are too far off to be of use.
I lean toward their being just another useless rubber-stamp on this disaster.
