1. Constitutionally, about as much of a chance as the Birther lawsuits.

[longship]

2. That's correct. No constitutional solution except impeachment or 25th amendment.

These idiots nevertheless keep spewing about election do-overs, nullification, Mulligans...

They need to read the fucking US Constitution.

7. Yep

It's disheartening to see how many otherwise intelligent people fall for this garbage.

14. It's not like Trump or Republicans are following the Constitution.

Why should we?

3. If five Justices could install Bush, five can take out Trump.

And one has already commented she would already have done so were it not that a civil war would ensue. But, it it is done properly, people will accept it.

4. There are exactly four ways for a sitting president to be removed

And nullifying an election ain't one and cannot be done.

1) They die
2) They resign
3) Impeachment and conviction
4) invocation of the 25th amendment with ensuing votes of 2/3 majorities in both Houses of Congress.

5. Supreme Court allowed a legal petition to move forward that aims to nullify the 2016 election

6. It's automatic, not something that is "allowed" by the Justices

To say that they "allowed" it to "advance" paints an entirely misleading an inaccurate picture of the situation.

The initial suit was tossed out by a lower court. Pending the filing of the petition of a writ of mandamus, the plaintiffs asked Justice Breyer for an emergency stay of the decision of the lower court and that was denied. Then they went to Justice Ginsburg with the same request for relief and that were denied again.

In short, the plaintiffs have lost at every stage of the proceeding and will lose again (this time with no further recourse) later this week.

That is the harsh reality. But its better to face the harsh reality and move forward than pin one's hope on a total fantasy.

10. Bullshit

An automatic move to a conference where it won't even be commented on does not constitute the SCOTUS moving it forward. Same shit happened with every bullshit Birther lawsuit that went to the SCOTUS and every idiot Birther said the same bullshit about the "SCOTUS moves lawsuit forward" every last damned time,

It's pure idiocy and stands zero chance of even being commented upon in conference, let alone actually moving forward.

This is the idiot Birtherism of the left.

It won't happen because the very idea runs counter to the constitution.

8. This should get moved to the conspiracy theory forum.

What nonsense.

9. Can A Presidential Election Be Nullified?

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/3/11/1642504/-Can-A-Presidential-Election-Be-Nullified

.... The High Court has scheduled a conference for March 17, 2017.

While this is good news for those holding out hope that the election results may be undone, legal experts are predicting the petitioners’ chances of prevailing are slimmer than Trump having graduated the University of Pennsylvania summa cum laude.

In a story on the subject, Occupy Democrats described the court action as “a longshot,” later indicating the petition “has a 1% chance of even being heard by the court, let alone of being decided favorably” for the petitioners.

But isn’t the fact the Court assigned a docket number and a conference date a good sign? ......

11. In two words, Hell NO!

[MoonRiver]

12. L. Coyote, watch out, they're coming to take you away, haha.

But I really hope you're onto something. The world's survival may depend on that demented maniac being removed.

[Foamfollower]

13. I call bullshit when I see bullshit

This lawsuit is just as much bullshit as the Birther lawsuits and stands just as much of a chance.

[MoonRiver]

15. After watching SCOTUS hand the 2000 election to bush,

and Comey interfer 11 days before the 2016 election to make sure Hillary lost, I think all bets are off. We're in wild and unprecedented times.

[Foamfollower]

16. No, we really aren't

This lawsuit is the left's equivalent of a Birther lawsuit.

It is pure idiocy.
