ID: 3 stills from A Bullet for Baldwin (1956)

  1. Alfred Hitchcock says “I’ve just come into possession of a cure for fascism”

  2. He sets some bullets on his desk and says “they come in capsule form. For best results, they must be taken internally.”

  3. He holds up a revolver and says “here is the handy applicator.”

    There’s an interesting possibility.

    If Trump strokes out before the EC votes are cast, Vance becomes president.

    But, if Trump strokes out after the EC votes are cast, but before they are actually counted in the House, Vance will be properly elected to the vice presidency. No presidential candidate will have 270 votes, so the decision will be made by the House, and the House can only choose from the top 3 candidates based on EC vote count. Harris being the only other candidate to win any EC votes, the House can only choose her. We end up with a Harris/Vance administration.

        There is a line between “wishing for death” and “inciting violence”. You’re on the wrong side of that line.

        The EC votes are cast on the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December. (December 17th). They are counted on January 6th.
