Are you aware the Constitution sets out requirements for eligibility for president? Just because your feelings say you really want a particular person, it doesn’t mean you have a constitutional right to vote for them. For example, maybe I really want Arnold Schwarzenegger for president. Just because I prefer Arnold that does not mean he can be president.
Trumpers could vote for Trump in 2020 and they still staged a violent insurrection. So your point is both stupid and moot.
Laws are important, I’m sure if someone broke into your home and stole all your stuff you wouldn’t want the law to just shrug and go who cares.
maybe a good lawyer can equate them
It’s interesting that you consider a swampy dishonest lawyer to be a “good” lawyer.
How are MAGA voters losing the democratic options to express themselves?
There’s lots of good reasons to be anti-Biden.
BUT PER THE LAW, Biden is eligible to run and Trump is not.
This has nothing to do with feelings or even policy. Nothing to do with sides.
This is just the straight up facts. Trump has engaged in insurrection. Biden has not. The 14th Amendment is clear that insurrectionists are not eligible for office.
If you want to be eligible for office, dotn engage in insurrection. It’s not fucking complicated.
Trump also said “I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”
If you shake someone’s hand and also punch them, does the handshake cancel out the punch?
You’re being slimy and dishonest again. Trump is a politician, he talks out both sides of his mouth. Talking out both sides of your mouth does not cancel out.
I’ll give an hyperbolic example. “Instagram star breaks DC window” = followers are insurrectionists. Anyone liking a post is barred from the ballot.
You can’t tell the difference between double tapping an Instagram post and offering a presidential pardon?
Whose democratic options to express themselves is being taken away?
Statistically it is non-white people, so why is it white people who are turning to violence?
You should actually be more worried that violent insurrection becomes the norm.
Violent storming of the Capitol is insurrectionalist and obvious (like assault)
That was not your original statement but it’s a lot more correct now, and if we can agree that an obvious insurrection is an insurrection, that’s a very good start.
We fight like hell. And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore
I don’t see any honest case to be made that this isn’t incitement of insurrection.
Additionally, the 14th Amendment does not require you to prove it was an incitement, it’s enough to provide aid or comfort to the insurrectionists. Of which there are numerous examples, including Trump repeatedly offering to pardon the insurrectionists.
That’s like if you assaulted someone, and then claiming you didn’t assault them because you think assault isn’t strongly defined.
It’s just a very stupid and slimy way of saying you think laws shouldn’t apply to you.
It’s not vague at all. Engage in an insurrection, you can’t hold office. Trump incited an insurrection that was broadcast on national television.
Biden hasn’t incited an insurrection, but if he did, he would also be ineligible for office.
The problem with Republicans is they actually don’t give the smallest shit about the law or the US Constitution. They’re fascists, the don’t have integrity or values, except to value seizing and maintaining power, by any means necessary.
“how much land you own” lmfaooo remind them how much land Bill Gates owns and watch them trip over their own feet trying to amend that statement.
Ignoring the fact they went from 4 to 8 clients.
You think the 3.2% is on the order of single digits of machines? You think 3.2% market share is 8 people?
Obviously you don’t. It’s 10s of thousands of machines and you exaggerated the actual situation so far it no longer made any sense.
I hate when people respond to a post with a little anecdote that is completely irrelevant to the original post.
God that’s so corporate-coded - instead of fixing your divisions so they are all profitable, just take your two successful divisions and squeeze them like you’re trying to get blood out of a stone.
If money is imaginary then why can’t we guarantee food, shelter, clothing, and education for every single human on this planet.
The US has never been a country that’s good or fair. It’s only very slowly gotten a little better through the sweat and blood of good people.
If we want it to get better it’s going to be a lot of difficult and painstaking work.
A lot of teens in the US have jobs; I’ve worked since I was 14. At $10/month that’s like 1 fast food meal, and if you use it as your major chat platform that’s easily worth it for the convenience it offers you. And teens don’t generally have other major bills to pay.
Apple, Google, and Microsoft commit antitrust violations too fast and numerous for the legal systems to keep up.
That and they spy on consumers for the US government so that gives them free passes at a lot of things.
Factually incorrect, either you don’t know what is going on, or you’re lying. The Senate failed to remove him as president, that is all. There is an ongoing criminal case during which Trump was indicted this past year. There has been no acquittal, contrary to your claim.
I agree 100%. I don’t want Biden or any of the other GOP candidates either. And yet, none of them have so far staged and supported an insurrection. I only think candidates should be discluded based on law.
I’m logically consistent, which is something you are not capable of understanding.
Well, Trumpers are extremely delusional and very stupid. So, they will get very violent, even though Trumpers have the most to lose and least to gain from an actual Civil War 2.
One massive trumper delusion is that they are the only ones with guns. In reality, leftists, anarchists, anti-fascists, and communists have a ridiculous amount of firepower stored.
The big difference is that Trumpers paint a big target on themselves and their homes, flying Trump flags and wearing trump merch. Trumpers are not ready to fight a war against an enemy they can’t find. They’re like the Redcoats of the American Revolution, they are big loud and meant to intimidate, they are not ready to fight an actual bloody war of attrition against an enemy they cannot see.
