If Hillary won, they would have done just anything, including ruling the Constitution unconstitutional.
The argument is based upon a faulty premise, which is admitted early on. The voters do not elect the president, which the argument admits. The legislators of the various states do that through the Electoral College system.
The legislatures of the states have plenary power to choose electors. Plenary powers means they cannot be overruled---period. The method used is through the holding of popular elections. However, there is NOTHING in the Constitution that requires that the people are to vote for the president. The state legislatures decided that, which is their respective right. They could undecide that as well. That's because the courts do not have a doggone thing to do with the election of a president. The court should butt out completely on this one.
But leave it up to the liberals and you'd have the end of that. That's because if the Supreme Court decided to interfere in the election, then it would become the law of the land even though the Constitution does not give such power to the court. Under a liberal court, the Constitution would become meaningless. They would rule the Constitution unconstitutional.
