    Ryan Silverstein joins Josh to discuss the post election drama in Pennsylvania. We discuss three ways they can reduce the drama and restore people's faith in Pennsylvania's election process. We also discuss the possibility of President Trump proposing a constitutional amendment to lock the number of Supreme Court justices at nine. If that is possible, how it might work, and what kind of message it would send.
