So, might seem dumb on my end, but I actually never heard of Gödel’s loophole. Do you think he just predicted that a President could collude with Supreme Court and just rubberstamp everything or was it some 4d chess nonsense regarding constitutional convention/Article V or the ability to create new states?
What do you all think it is? I can also see nothingburger as it really didn’t go anywhere, which seems odd considering the nature at the time.

if i were a famous logician i would make a big thing about a loophole in the constitution and 100 years after i die they’d find out it was something stupid like “no one has to follow the law lol”
Exactly what I was thinking, I would not be shocked if that was the case. All though, Godel wasn’t like a rube or anything so I dunno. Woulda been a huge hit to the credibility.
What intrigues me is that the judge straight up was like
“nah, don’t wanna hear it.”
“But I can prove it! Einstein brought me here with-”
“nope. Not opening that can of legal worms, fuck off.”
turns out it was just the entire document
It would be really funny also if it was related to the judiciary and the judge was just like “Nah, don’t wanna see it”.
