    Right, I don’t agree that it should be a legal consequence.

    I do however think it should be a moral consequence, a judgment visited on those who would cast such a ridiculous vote. The best way I’ve heard it termed, is that Trump isn’t merely unqualified, he’s unqualified squared, which is to say, if you think he’s fit to be president, then you also aren’t qualified.

      With votes being anonymous, I’m not sure who is going to provide any sort of moral consequence here. Those who support him likely mostly watch media that supports him. The government shouldn’t have a say in morality, they deal in law.
