Remember when the debt ceiling used to be a pro forma process?
Nobody remembers that because it was a pro forma process. The the same thing with the certification of the electoral college. Nobody remembers the certification because it was a pro forma process.
Everyone should understand; the GOP turned the debt ceiling into a hostage negotiation and nobody should be surprised when the GOP turns the electoral college certification as a hostage negotiation at the very least and quite possibly as a future coup attempt.
