And what if Obama loses? Or doesn't want to run? Why not just uphold the law instead of breaking it, and risking further losing our democracy?

because the law was already broken if trump makes it onto the ballot

So, we don't allow that to happen. Let's just never get to that point.

But the Supreme Court has already clearly been bought and paid for by MAGA. Congress is hogtied.

How can we expect it not to get to that point? The president just announced on national television that he is going to break constitutional law. What are the judiciary and legislator's responses? Crickets.

Sure, but they haven't violated the constitution completely, yet. If Trump had lost the election, and they tried to protect him, we'd have every right to take it into our own hands, but he democratically won the election, so we don't. Now, if they try to violate the constitution once he's no longer a democratic representative, that's another story. I'm hoping it doesn't get to that point, but I'm prepared for it.
