Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Monday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that former President Donald Trump was already “constitutionally disqualified from holding office, having participated in insurrection.”
Raskin said, “The historians and political scientists we have spoken to have been very clear about this. The surest sign of a successful coup coming is a recently failed coup where the coup plotters and insurrectionists got to diagram the weaknesses in the existing structure. And so if there’s impunity, if they think they can operate with impunity and under the cover of darkness, then they are undoubtedly going to come back again. So I think that everything we know about what’s taken place around the world with coups and what’s taken place historically tells us that there must be consequences, and not just for the hundreds of foot soldiers who are already facing the music and many of whom have already been convicted or pled guilty, but also for people all the way at the top, the masterminds and the ringleaders.”

Exactly. And it wasn’t an insurrection just because people such as Raskin say it was.
They are just so afraid that their little parade will come to an end.
Hello kettle!
the point is to make him fight this while campaigning
If they think they can get away with it without provoking a far more serious ‘insurrection’, they’ll do it. Any objection will be treated as sedition and or insurrection agains ‘the rule of law’. After all, they got away with the FBI raid on Trump’s home.
Oh Si now it matters? I remember when people called us “birthers” for reading the constitution.
Yes the bureaucracy Is filled with petty tyrant who will try to crush you if you question their
authority or power
Jan 6 was not an insurrection. Trump also repeatedly asked pelosi and Schmuckie if they wanted troops to help with order at the Capitol.
.... I am no expert but from what I can gather ...... All you need to do is read the "Disqualification Clause" in the 14th Amendment:
.... "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
........ Unfortunately by flaw or design ...... the so called "Disqualification Clause" does not say who determines the guilt ..... There is an inference that it may possibly be Congress ...
..... I'm pretty sure the Left and the collaborating Anti Trump faction know this .... We need to understand that we sailing are all in uncharted waters .... Which makes taking evasive action VERY difficult ...
.
trump is ineligible because he has already been elected twice to the office of president.

And thus they claim their existential threat to (their) democracy money laundering operations and the way of life it affords them.
😉
Raskin should be disbarred.
Exactly. They always accuse us of what they have secretly been doing.
Democrat semantics. A peaceful protest over a stolen presidential election being deemed an insurrection by the democrats does not mean nor does it prove evidence of an insurrection. Words are cheap, especially coming from a DC criminal communist democrat.
It’s nonsense, period.
In their psychosis they saw the whole thing unfold.. the shock will be administered during discovery. (The Demoncrats can’t allow discovery, ya’see..
Yes, but those of us with better sense will still suffer from the mistake of others. That's what I'm afraid of.

I hate them too. And that’s not something I say lightly.
