Trial venue for people in the military. Also trial venue in times of martial law when regular courts are unable to function. Note that regular courts were open during the civil war, so no way the regular courts get closed. US citizens will be tried in regular courts.
Comfy here too - but caution that "next week" is too short a time to resolve this. Rumors are some russian collusion thing will hit, so a slight boost, but the election contests might take a few weeks. Might be next week too, can't predict. Stock up on six weeks of resolve and you'll be in good shape.
I saw a report Biden will be put on stage this evening, 8 pm, to accept. Who knows exact time will happen, but the plan is to play his part in the gaslighting and premature (improvident) claim.
A bit of both. Not required, so ceremonial. There is maybe a legal effect in case of a close contest, but that rarely happens. Well, I guess the legal effect is no litigation, but that happens with the passage of time and inaction no matter what.
