Attorney Boris Epshteyn said the U.S. Constitution does not prohibit President Trump from being reinstated as president in the coming months*. In a recent interview, Trump’s former strategic adviser said it would not be impossible for the 45th president to return to the White House if election audits found that Joe Biden’s victory was fraudulent.
However, left-wing media outlets have claimed Trump’s reinstatement was out of question simply because it has never happened before. Epshteyn described the Constitution as a “negative rights document” and argued because the document doesn’t prohibit the decertification of an election, Trump’s reinstatement would be legally possible.

Epshteyn went on to say the 12th Amendment and Article II suggest individual states have the right to decertify an election, potentially changing their outcomes and the issue will likely land in the Supreme Court.
