That's some of the plainest language in the Constitution, to boot. I can't wait to see the #GOP's mental acrobatics in court.
They won't even try to justify it. They'll just pretend it doesn't exist and try to throw money at the issue until the right person takes it and makes it go away.
Probably something like "Um actually, it doesn't count as an insurrection if the sitting president supports it" or "there is no government to rebell against during the election certification process."
I can't find a source but I think the argument for the 14rh came from a republican think tank.
