Basically not unless /another/ anti-trust lawsuit is brought against them, and also somehow Teddy Roosevelt time warps into exactly Biden’s location, explodes him Dr. Manhattan style inside out, immediately asks for a fitting suit, signature glasses, and this somehow stuns everyone into just letting him be President for the rest of Biden’s term.
From what I understand, it doesn’t work that way. Which is why they are appealing to the 9th circuit court. They’ve been doing this with little success for half a year or so and it’s unlikely they’ll succeed this time either.
