Of course and beyond any doubt whatsoever, there will be no request for an
extension. I don't know who first floated that stupid idea, but it is about
the dumbest thing I have seen here insofar as anyone takes it seriously.

Such a thing couldn't possibly happen because there is no mechanism to
bring it about, nothing. Further, it would be unconstitutional on the face
of it. Why in heaven's name is anyone even discussing this twaddle?  Have
you all gone insane?
