What's with the rag on Representative Jamie Raskin's head???

I don't see any hair loss...so I've ruled out CA.

Is he just trying to keep the air in his head?

Shows how ignorant he is ... doesn’t understand the difference between a majority and 2/3s.

The vow should be made: Keep Trump off the ballot and there will be no ballots at all.

Unfortunately today "logic and fairness" no longer count for much.

Can you imagine the Framers foreseeing a case where someone would be impeached after leaving office? (Of course the purpose was to try to bar Trump from ever holding office again.)

John Kerry gave aid and comfort to enemies of the US (by going to Paris to give advice to the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong delegations) but no one used that to keep him off ballots in 2004. And he very nearly won (the Ohio electoral votes made the difference).

“I think limiting the use of the word “Officer” to only military positions is not the intent of the Constitution.”

I agree. There are such things as civil officers in government. They are non military civilian positions that require an oath of office. “SECTION. 4. The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States,…..”

Yes logic and fairness are rare in politics today. We are in a no holds battle for power and one side in particular is willing to use almost any tactic to get that power. Unfortunately they have legions of adherents who think it is perfectly acceptable to “do whatever it takes” to meet their goals.

Fake elector schemes and a bunch of no-brains trespassing in the US Capitol building being the difference unfortunately.

Did they vote to convict Trump?

(After the House of Representatives sends its articles of impeachment to the Senate, the Senate sits as a High Court of Impeachment to consider evidence, hear witnesses, and vote to acquit or convict the impeached official.)

The media will run with thus crap and 50% will believe this to be 100% fact before the end of the year

Of course not. Don’t mistake my explanation of what he is talking about as agreement. I am never surprised at the crap these guys just make up and expect you to believe.

Freedom of speech is an insurrection? Agree with the swamp or you are an insurrectionist...which is then equated with a traitor and terrorist.

No debate allowed on that.

Doesn’t matter there, either. Only if he is convicted of insurrection is he ineligible. Otherwise, virtue signaling.

There were no fake elector schemes.

Alternate slates of electors in a contested election are perfectly normal.

Every time this tool opens his mouth I feel a warm glow of joy that his kid offed himself.

Does that make me a bad person?

How is Trump going to live down the blasted lies out there.. People who dont keep up with what’s going on, and only know what they hear. Enough of the lies and it will be true to those people.

He volunteered to get this nation in order.. He took no pay, and paid a price turning his businesses over to his sons.. Now having a lawyer bill.

The man is not a young man... They are trying to destroy him.. He is good and they are from the pit.. Getting orders from the pit.

Are the gop in congress and elsewhere, going to back him thru the election? A pence and a Kemp are his enemies. Anyone else?

Jamie, Jamie, Jamie. Have you learned nothing since your son committed suicide and you got cancer? How many signs does God need to give you before you see the light?
