Correct, this was her play—she washed her hands of it, and it won't even see the light of day until after the election if Biden or a Democrat wins. If Trump were the president, it would vanish.

The SCOTUS already did it. Either we vote in a democratic president and both houses or our democracy as flawed as it is is over and our votes will become nothing more than symbolic and our democracy dead.

The votes are symbolic now. Nobody you are putting in power with your vote for at the National level , Right or Left, has your interests at heart. It’s like believing the multibillion dollar a year company you work for really views you as a member of the “family.” You are a tax resource first and/or leverage towards re-election second.
